Weekend hoops

A full schedule of Friday-night games coming up in Hancock County.

Join Andrew & Chris for the live broadcast of Mt. Vernon at Greenfield-Central. The Marauders come in with a 5-3 mark against the toughest schedule in Class 3A, led by C.J. Coleman, Stephen Turner and a a balanced attack. G-C has improved and is always up for this rivalry game. Join us at 7:10 at HancockCountySports.com

Also Friday, Delta (5-3) is at New Palestine (8-1). The Dragons need an HHC win to set up a showdown with 4A No. 10 Pendleton Heights next week. NP has won seven straight, including the county title. The Dragons have a balanced attack, led by Michael Morris, who scored 26 points against Mt. Vernon in the county final.

Eastern Hancock (6-4) visits Muncie Burris (4-5) at Ball Gym, one of the oldest active gymnasiums in the state. The Royals had a good showing in finishing third at the county tourney, led by Victor Vincz and Jared Pyle. EH has some impressive wins on the year -- especially against Blue River, Frankton and Knightstown. Burris has victories over 3A Yorktown and 4A Portage.

On Saturday
Mt. Vernon visits New Castle. The Marauders boys get a turn at the largest high school fieldhouse in the world. This should be one of the stronger games of the year. Our friends at WMDH will provide a broadcast.

Just one girls game this weekend: 3A No. 2 Mt. Vernon (12-3) at Noblesville, which is slated for 1:30 p.m. Saturday. You can listen to the live broadcast of the game with Chris Lambert at HancockCountySports.com.
