What to watch

This midweek nonleague meeting pits the Niles Vikings against the Lakeshore Lancers in what should be a physical, late-week test for both clubs. The teams last met Jan. 3, 2025, at Lakeshore, where Niles walked away with a 53-42 victory — full recap and box score at https://scorebooklive.com/michigan/basketball/games/5068679-niles-vs-lakeshore. Both programs have important follow-ups on the schedule: Niles hosts Sturgis on Feb. 6, and Lakeshore travels to Kalamazoo Central the same day, so a win Wednesday could provide momentum for the weekend.
