Panthers poised for key showdown with Spartans after hard week
Hanover moves to second in HCC after a 4-3 week while Indiana Central, Earlham, and Frankin stumble. Hanover’s Mike Miller and Steve Wilson led a 26-point night in a pre Christmas win. Spartans star Dick Harris tops NAIA scorers with 29, while Joe Phillips exploded for 36 in a rout of Hanover last Saturday. The Hanover season profile shows strong scoring depth, but defense remains a concern as Manchester looms in a pivotal home test tonight ahead of road trips to Anderson and Taylor.
