The sectional will be hosted at North Knox High School on Feb. 28 through March 4, with the Bluejackets’ matchup against the Warriors set for March 1 at 6 p.m.
This game will be a rematch from earlier this season, as the two teams faced off on Dec. 16, with Mitchell emerging victorious in blowout fashion 69-37.
Since that game, both schools have struggled in the win-loss column, with North Knox 4-10 during that time having lost four straight.
The Bluejackets are 3-11 since defeating the Warriors back in December and are currently on a two-game winning streak.
The winner of that game will advance to take on the winner of Paoli (16-5) and 2A top-ranked Linton-Stockton (21-1) on March 3 at 7:30 p.m.
Mitchell has faced and lost to both teams decisively earlier in the season, losing to Linton-Stockton on Dec. 9, 71-34 and losing to Paoli on Jan. 6, 68-37.
North Knox has yet to face Paoli this season, but battled Linton-Stockton on Jan. 28, losing handedly 77-34.
