Notes and context

There’s no prior meeting listed for these programs on the SBLive game page, so this shapes up as an early-season nonleague test for both squads. Piney Woods arrives with six SBLive fans, while Salem shows zero fans on the site — those numbers can change, so follow the teams to show support and get updates.

Piney Woods also has a scheduled follow-up game at home on Tuesday, Feb. 3 (vs. West Lincoln) — check the Piney Woods team page for that matchup and any schedule updates: https://scorebooklive.com/mississippi/basketball/teams/216373-piney-woods-tornadoes-jv
