It’s not Pella – Pella Christian, Knoxville – Pella, or Melcher-Dallas – Twin Cedars, but being separated by just a small handful of miles makes tonight’s girls’/boys’ basketball doubleheader between Pleasantville and the Saints is still a rivalry game in some eyes. The last two seasons, the girls’ games have come down to the fourth quarter; the Trojans won last year’s contest by eight in overtime, and they bring back a majority of their scoring to the court this season. On the gentlemen’s side, the Trojans have dominated in recent meetings, winning the last two by a combined 159 – 88, including an 85 – 36 thrashing in 2013. Garrett Knock is perched up high in the Saints’ gym for the call tonight live on KNIAKRLS.com, with pre-game coverage starting at 5:45 p.m. and tip-off at 6:00.
