CARTHAGE, Texas (Interstat) — The Panola Ponies (2-1) will look to rebound from their first loss of the season when they host the Southwestern Christian Rams (4-2) in a men’s junior college basketball game on Monday, Nov. 17, 2025.

Panola is coming off a 63-44 road defeat to Odessa this past Saturday. Prior to that, the Ponies opened their season with two home victories, including a 69-56 win over Clarendon on Nov. 14.

Southwestern Christian enters on a two-game winning streak, most recently edging Clarendon 71-68 at home on Nov. 11. The Rams have shown resilience early, with an 80-79 overtime victory at Tyler on Nov. 4 among their four wins. Their two losses came in a home-and-away series with Dodge City, falling 96-85 in both contests on Nov. 8.

Monday’s matchup is the first of a busy week for both teams. Southwestern Christian will host Kilgore on Tuesday, while Panola’s next game is at home against Northwest Florida State on Nov. 24.
