What to watch

The Comets and Black Bears met earlier this season on Jan. 15, when North Michigan Christian Academy posted a 78-42 win over Maplewood Baptist Academy. That lopsided result gives the Comets a confidence edge, but rematches can bring adjustments on both ends. This is a nonleague meeting that could shape momentum for each program as they head into their next handful of games.
