Monroe and Bedford meet Thursday in perhaps the biggest girls basketball game of the regular season in Monroe County.

It’s a shame the game has to be played on the day both schools return from Christmas break. I wonder what kind of crowd it will draw. It was fun to watch Monroe and SMCC play in front of a nearly full house earlier this season. I doubt that many will be in Bedford’s gym Thursday night.

Both teams come in with 5-2 records. They have won common opponent: SMCC. Monroe beat the Kestrels 90-74 in the season opener, then 84-71 a week later.

By the way, the boys teams from the two schools play the next night at Monroe.
