The East Central Trojans will square off against the Switzerland County Pacers at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday.
It's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 83-45, which was the final score in East Central's tilt against Greenfield-Central on Friday. While losing is never fun, the Trojans can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Indiana basketball rankings (they are ranked 220th, while the Cougars are ranked seventh).
Meanwhile, Switzerland County didn't have too much trouble with New Washington on Saturday as they won 60-44.
Switzerland County is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five matchups. That's provided a massive bump to their 11-9 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 60.6 points over those games. This is the second loss in a row for East Central and nudges their season record down to 7-13.
East Central and Switzerland County were neck-and-neck in their previous meeting back in December of 2024, but East Central came up empty-handed after a 47-46 defeat.
