Carroll (Fort Wayne) @ Fort Wayne North Side
It has admittedly been a bit of a disappointing season for the Chargers. After improving from two wins in 2021-2022 to a 12-11 record a year ago, Carroll is just 7-11 this time around despite featuring Bowling Green signee Jaxon Pardon Jaxon Pardon 6'4" | SG Fort Wayne Carroll | 2024 State IN , Grace bound Cannen Houser Cannen Houser 6'5" | SG Fort Wayne Carroll | 2024 State IN , and junior guard Jayire Sampson. However, that level of talent still gives them a puncher’s chance every time they step on the floor. This evening they will go against 12-6 North Side led by unsigned seniors Jaxson Fugate Jaxson Fugate 6'5" | SF Fort Wayne North Side | 2024 State IN and Eugene Young Jr. If you are in the Fort Wayne area this will be the game you’ll want to attend this evening.
Center Grove @ Zionsville
The Trojans of Center Grove are on a roll of late having won six straight to improve to 12-4 on the season. Seniors Joey Schmitz Joey Schmitz 6'2" | PG Center Grove | 2024 State IN and Will Spellman Will Spellman 6'6" | PF Center Grove | 2024 State IN continue to lead the way for a talented, deep roster. As for Zionsville, they are led by junior duo Maguire Mitchell Maguire Mitchell 6'5" | SG Zionsville | 2025 State IN and Drew Snively Drew Snively 6'4" | SG Zionsville | 2025 State IN . The Eagles had won three straight before losing on Saturday to defending state champion Ben Davis. This will be an intriguing matchup this evening between two teams that are flying a bit under the radar in the greater Indianapolis area.
Fort Wayne Snider @ Blackhawk Christian
We’ve already deemed North Side vs. Carroll the game of the night in Fort Wayne, but this will be a close second. Blackhawk Christian comes in ranked #7 in the Prep Hoops Indiana Class 2A Poll with a 13-5 record. They are led by 6’8″ junior forward Kellen Pickett Kellen Pickett 6'9" | PF Blackhawk Christian | 2025 State #108 Nation IN and sharp-shooting senior guard Isaac Smith Isaac Smith 6'6" | SG Blackhawk Christian | 2024 State IN . Fort Wayne Snider has rather quietly built an 11-8 record on the back of some very talented young players. Two of their three top scorers, Trell Hogue Trell Hogue 6'1" | SG Snider | 2027 IN and Ketron Paschall Ketron Paschall 6'5" | SF Snider | 2027 State IN , are freshmen. Qualyn Clopton Qualyn Clopton 6'2" | SG Fort Wayne Snider | 2025 State IN leads the Panthers averaging 11.2 points per game.
Lake Central @ East Chicago Central
For Indiana High School Basketball fans up in The Region this is the game for you. East Chicago Central, who has quietly won eight straight to improve to 14-4 on the season will take on 14-2 Lake Central. 6’6″ unsigned senior forward Jake Smith Jake Smith 6'6" | PF Lake Central | 2024 State IN has played his way into Indiana All-Star consideration leading the Indians to a fantastic season. Meanwhile, junior wing Dominique Murphy Jr Dominique Murphy Jr 6'5" | SG East Chicago Central | 2025 State #242 Nation IN averages 20.9 points and 9.7 rebounds per game for the Cardinals and is one of the best prospects in the area. Senior guard Jemeil Rich Jr is having a strong season as well averaging 14.1 points per game.
Springs Valley @ Paoli
This will be a great one for fans down in southern Indiana to take in this evening. These rival programs each feature one of the best Class of 2025 prospects in the area. Paoli, sitting at 12-3 on the season, is led by high-scoring junior guard Fletcher Cole Fletcher Cole 6'0" | PG Paoli | 2025 State IN . On the opposite sideline, junior wing Deion Edwards Deion Edwards 6'5" | SF Springs Valley | 2025 State IN averages 24.3 points and 8.1 rebounds per game for the 12-6 Blackhawks. Edwards recently scored 56 points in a game to break Larry Bird’s school record. Expect a good battle between Cole and Edwards tonight.
