The La Jolla Country Day Torreys will take on the Centennial Huskies at 6:15 p.m. on Wednesday. One thing working in La Jolla Country Day's favor is that they have posted big point totals every time they've taken the court this season.
Last Wednesday, La Jolla Country Day humbled Vista Murrieta with a 77-11 victory. With La Jolla Country Day ahead 51-5 at the half, the matchup was all but over already.
La Jolla Country Day relied on the efforts of Mei-ling Perry, who scored 20 points along with 4 steals, and Naomi Panganiban, who scored 20 points along with 8 steals. That makes it two consecutive games in which Perry has scored at least 25% of La Jolla Country Day's points. The team also got some help courtesy of Erin Sicari, who scored 13 points along with 3 steals.
Meanwhile, Centennial pushed their score all the way to 64 on Saturday, but even that wasn't enough to win. They fell just short of Harvard-Westlake by a score of 67-64. Centennial has now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
La Jolla Country Day's win bumped their season record to 2-1 while Vista Murrieta's defeat dropped theirs to 0-3.
La Jolla Country Day beat Centennial 82-70 in their previous meeting back in November of 2021. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Centennial's Londynn Jones, who scored 35 points along with 5 rebounds. Now that she won't be playing on Wednesday, will it be that much easier for La Jolla Country Day to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
