Why this one matters

The teams meet for the first time in three years — their last meeting came Dec. 8, 2022, at Hattiesburg High School when Meridian edged Hattiesburg 53-45. Young rosters early in the season will likely make this a physical, fast-paced nonleague test as both programs look to set a tone for 2025-26.
