Our final regular season Game of the Night on WBCK took us back to the same place as last Friday, this time hosting a team that they saw just three days ago for the first time this season.
The two Battle Creek teams that represent the Southwest Michigan Athletic Conference's East Division finally saw each other for the first time on the floor this season.
As teams prepare for the Michigan High School Athletic Association postseason in 2021, conference races heat up and in some cases revenge from earlier losses.
There was more to this Thursday night Game of the Night on WBCK beyond the two teams involved, beyond the crosstown rivalry that continued in the Interstate 8.
The Interstate 8 has been very competitive once again this basketball season and it was showcased Tuesday night in perfect fashion at Pennfield for our Game of the Night.
In the shortened sprint to the Michigan High School Athletic Association's basketball postseason, the learning curve for young teams may take longer than expected.
Friday night's Game of the Night was set to pit two Southwest Michigan Athletic Conference foes against each other for the first time this season, and two crosstown rivals to boot.
