What to watch

Petal and Greene County meet in a nonleague test that could shape early-season momentum. The teams last met Dec. 3, 2024, when Petal edged Greene County, 53-45 (full box on SBLive: https://scorebooklive.com/mississippi/basketball/games/4448914-greene-county-vs-petal). Heading into this matchup, both programs will look to build rhythm — Petal has an active fan base on SBLive and Greene County is trying to grow its following, so a strong turnout in Leakesville could matter.
