The loss doesn't tell the whole story though, as several players had good games. One of the most active was Sophia Carbajal, who posted six points in addition to ten boards and three steals. She is on a roll when it comes to rebounds, as she's now pulled down ten or more in each of the last 26 games she's played dating back to last season. The team also got some help courtesy of Leah Archibeque, who earned six points along with five boards and three steals.

Meanwhile, Centaurus took a blow against Berthoud on Thursday, falling 72-20.

Northridge didn't have too much breathing room in their contest against Centaurus in their previous matchup back in December of 2024, but they still walked away with a 44-39 win. Do the Grizzlies have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Warriors turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
