What to know

Center Hill hosts Lake Cormorant in a nonconference/league clash Friday night in Olive Branch. Tip is listed at 6 p.m. Central — note the original listing was in Pacific time, so this preview converts the start to the local Central time the teams will play.

The two programs met last season on Feb. 7, 2025, at Center Hill, where the Mustangs earned a 72-50 victory. That recent result gives Center Hill momentum heading into this meeting; Lake Cormorant will be aiming for a response on the road.
