Morehead hosts a battle between the 16th Region's top ranked Boyd County Lions and the newly crowned EKC champion Rowan County Vikings.

Jacob Spurlock (BC/27 ppg) and Colby Wilburn (RC/21 ppg) are the names to watch tonight. Look for the Lions to try to set an up tempo pace.

 

Boyd running and gunning in the opening frame. And they're doing it with Spurlock scoreless.
