Hiland is probably headed into the game with a chip on their shoulder considering Harvest Prep just ended the team's 15-game winning streak on Saturday. They took a 59-45 bruising from the Warriors.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Ridgewood). They were the clear victor by a 67-41 margin over Edison on Saturday. The team's explosion on offense also rewarded the Generals with their most commanding win of the season.

Hiland's loss ended a 22-game streak of wins at home dating back to last season and dropped them to 15-1. As for Ridgewood, the victory got them back to even at 9-9.

Everything came up roses for Hiland against Ridgewood in their previous meeting back in January, as the team secured a 74-37 win.
