What to know

Clayton and Tatum met last season in a shootout at Tatum, and the Yellowjackets came away with a 54-42 victory on Sept. 6, 2024. That game set the tone for what should be an up-tempo nonleague test for both programs Friday. Clayton will be at home Friday; Tatum will look to avenge last year’s loss and sharpen up before its home game against Fort Sumner/House on Sept. 12. Clayton’s next game after this one is at Navajo Pine on Sept. 13.
