Last Friday, Beaumont was able to grind out a solid win over Redlands, taking the game 48-39. Given Beaumont's advantage in MaxPreps' California basketball rankings (they are ranked 169th, while Redlands is ranked 512th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Meanwhile, Cajon wound up with the same score they had in their last game (56-44), but sadly the team found themselves on the wrong side of the score this time.
