No official meeting history is listed between the two programs in the game file, so this matchup could set the tone if these teams meet regularly in region play. Both teams have upcoming league schedules — J.Z. George hosts M.S. Palmer next and Leland hosts Charleston later this week — making this a key midweek test.
