Wednesday sports schedule — Dec. 8

What to watch

Boys basketball

Strawberry Crest (6-0) at Freedom (4-1), 6:30

This is a rematch from a game the Chargers won 69-61 at a tournament last month. That helped Strawberry Crest get off to a perfect start. The Patriots have won three straight, the last two coming in overtime. 

Girls basketball

Bloomingdale (7-0) at Riverview (6-1), 8

The Bulls, ranked No. 3 in 6A and No. 18 overall in the state by MaxPreps, beat Durant on Tuesday to remain undefeated. Now, Bloomingdale faces another test against the Sharks, whose only loss was against Lennard last week.  

Girls soccer

Springstead (7-2) at Nature Coast (5-2), 7:30

A battle for Hernando County supremacy between teams currently ranked among the top 23 in their respective classifications. The Eagles, who have won four straight, are averaging more than five goals per match. The host Sharks have rebounded from an 0-2 start to win five straight. 

East Lake (6-1) at St. Petersburg (5-1), 8

After losing the opener to Calvary Christian, the Eagles have won six straight thanks to an offense that is averaging nearly six goals per match during that streak. The Green Devils also rebounded from a loss to Calvary Christian to win its last two.
