Sunday, February 20, 2022

On Sunday evening, as boys high school basketball teams around the state gathered together around their televisions, computers, tablets and smart phones, the IHSAA unveiled the 2021-22 sectional pairings.

For Clay City, the Eels will head to the Class A White River Valley Sectional where they’ll take on the host Wolverines in a rematch of a game that took place Saturday night inside the Eel Dome and saw Clay City walk away with a one-point victory. The game will take place Tuesday, March 2 at 6 p.m.

For Northview, the Knights will head to Class 3A Edgewood Sectional where they’ll take on a familiar foe in long-time Western Indiana Conference rival in West Vigo. It also represents a rematch of a game that took place during the regular season, although it was much longer ago.

Northview saw West Vigo in the team’s fourth game of the season, which took place inside the Jim Mann Green Dome. The Knights dominated the second half in the Dec. 10 game that saw them win by a 15-point margin over the Vikings who have had an up and down season and are currently in the midst of a season-worst three-game losing streak.
