Campo over Dougherty- 15 game win streak doesn't end here tonight. One of the most balanced and well coached teams in the area, they play their style of basketball regardless of their opponent. Hansen is by far the MVP of this league and his has not disappointed anyone who had watched him play. This team can beat you with the inside game as well as the perimeter and their team defense is the best in this league. Dougherty is coming off a very impressive victory at Dublin on Friday night and has the ability to keep this close for a while but in the end, the Cougs will prove to much for them.
Las Lomas over Dublin- This was one heck of a game the last time these two teams meet and I will be in Walnut Creek to see this rematch. Bad spot for Dublin here as the Knights were destroyed by Campo Friday night and look to get back to their winning ways at home. Dublin has lost 3 of their last 5 games and are searching for answers, especially on the defensive end of the court. They gamble to much are always looking to make a big play instead of the smart play and they give up way to many easy baskets. I would never count out a Costello coached team because he comes up with one of two huge victories a year and this could be his 2nd one if they win here. Falls and Knox will need to be solid and Toney needs to be more aggressive at both ends of the court.
Miramonte over Alhambra- Miramonte is the most disappointing team in this league and when I see them play, look have talent but no heart. I am not sure if that comes from the coaching staff or their lack of toughness but it's almost hard to watch them play. Alhambra has impressed me at times with their up tempo play but their lack of defensive effort and or coaching it, is what is holding this team back. Both teams could be in the 80's, 90's or 100's in this game. If you want to see a high school basketball played the AAU way, go see this game, you won't be disappointed.
