What to watch

This early-season JV matchup gives both programs a chance to settle rotations and identify scorers heading into league play. There’s no recent meeting on file between the two teams, so expect coaches to use this as a measuring stick. With both teams listed at 0-0, the first impressions — effort, ball security and rebounding — could determine momentum for the weeks ahead.
