  • Date/time: Friday, Jan. 30, 2026 — 7:30 p.m. ET

  • Location: Rome, Ga.

Last meeting: The teams met Jan. 6 on ScorebookLive, when South Paulding handled Rome 85-40 (game recap and box score: https://scorebooklive.com/georgia/basketball/games/6040841-rome-vs-south-paulding). That lopsided result gives Rome a clear storyline coming into Friday’s game — a chance for the Wolves to even the season series on their home floor, while the Spartans will try to avoid a letdown after a dominant performance earlier in the month.
