IHSAA Sectional Championship - Rivalry Game as the Red Devils face New Albany
By Larry Owens | Mar 8, 2025 7:15 AM

The Red Devils will have a chance at back-to-back sectional championships tonight as they travel to Seymour High School for their third game in just five days, and it’s going to be one for the ages. At 7:30 p.m., they’ll face off against the New Albany Bulldogs in what is widely considered one of the biggest rivalry games in the state. The last time these two teams met, back on February 12th at Jeffersonville, the Red Devils took control and secured a dominant 78-59 victory. But with a rivalry as intense as this one, you can bet the Bulldogs will come out with everything they’ve got, and the Red Devils will need to be sharp, focused, and ready to battle for another chance at glory. This game is more than just a matchup; it’s a chance to continue the legacy, defend the sectional title, and keep the momentum going. Let’s go, Red Devils! 💪🔥 #RedDevils #SectionalChamps #RivalryGame #GoRedDevils #JEFFvsNA The following information is available compliments of John Harrell athttps://scoreboard.homestead.com/boys/capsSat.htm#load SEYMOUR SECTIONAL Jeffersonville (19-5) vs. New Albany (19-3) GAME TIME: 7:30 pm ET, Seymour.
