Tip-off is set for approximately 7:30 p.m. or about 20 to 25 minutes after the conclusion of the junior varsity content. The Kerle Tire Pregame Show from Clarion High School will start at 7 p.m.
Mike Kalinowski and Jess Quinn will have the call of the game with Chris Rossetti handling the pre- and post-game interviews.
These two rivals last met in the District 9 Class 2A playoffs with Clarion ending Cranberry’s season with its third straight win over the Berries a year ago.
Some of the key players from those teams are gone, but some remain in what should be a strong early-season test for both squads.
After beating Karns City, 39-33, Wednesday night, Cranberry is 3-2 on the season and 2-1 in the KSAC South.
The Berries are led by Ava Ferringer (17.2 ppg) and Kaia Dean (10.4 ppg).
Following a 65-61 loss to Redbank Valley Tuesday, Clarion is 2-3 overall and 1-2 in the KSAC South.
The Lady Cats are paced by Kait Constantino (20.0 ppg) and Jordan Best (8.6 ppg).
