Why this matters

Rushville (Lions) travels to Knightstown (Panthers) for a late-January nonconference matchup that could have implications for momentum heading into the final stretch of the season. Rushville enters the game eyeing a bounce-back after beating Knightstown 64-32 in their last meeting on Jan. 28, 2025 — full recap: https://scorebooklive.com/indiana/basketball/games/5053656-knightstown-vs-rushville. The two programs are familiar with one another, and Tuesday’s game should be a physical, possession-by-possession affair.
