Why this one matters

Essex cruised to a decisive 65-21 victory over Rice Memorial in their last meeting on March 4, 2025 — a result anyone in the Rice gym will remember (see full recap: https://scorebooklive.com/vermont/girls-basketball/games/5397375-rice-memorial-vs-essex). The Hornets come into this one with momentum and a solid showing from that matchup, while the Green Knights will be looking for a home bounce-back in front of their fans.
