The Orosi Cardinals will challenge the Chowchilla Tribe at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, both will really light up the scoreboard.
Orosi is looking to give their home crowd another W after opening their season at home on Thursday. They took down Mt. Whitney 56-41.
Meanwhile, Chowchilla hadn't done well against Firebaugh recently (they were 1-7 in their previous eight matchups), but they didn't let the past get in their way on Thursday. Chowchilla breezed by Firebaugh to the tune of 62-24. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest victory the Tribe have posted against the Eagles since December 15, 2015.
Chowchilla had a senior duo take command as Khaled Escheik almost dropped a double-double on 17 points and nine rebounds and Zayne Smith went 6 for 10 en route to 14 points plus two blocks. The dominant performance also gave Escheik a new career-high in three-point shooting accuracy (33%). Moritz Heckerodt was another key player, posting six points plus seven rebounds and three steals.
Orosi came up short against Chowchilla in their previous meeting back in November of 2023, falling 53-43. Will Orosi have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
