The Mira Costa Mustangs and the St. Anthony Saints will face off at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday without much rest after finishing up games yesterday. Keep an eye on the score for this one: both posted some lofty point totals in their previous games.
Mira Costa had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. They enjoyed a cozy 56-42 victory over Palos Verdes on Monday.
Meanwhile, St. Anthony strolled past West with points to spare on Monday, taking the game 76-59.
St. Anthony can attribute much of their success to Kadence Lloyd, who dropped a double-double on 29 points and 18 rebounds, and Laila Hughes, who posted 24 points plus eight rebounds and four steals. The match was Hughes' fifth in a row with at least ten points. Anaya Tunu was another key player, almost dropping a double-double on 11 points and nine rebounds.
Mira Costa was able to grind out a solid win over St. Anthony in their previous matchup back in November of 2022, winning 49-38. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was St. Anthony's Melaiah Joseph, who had 23 points along with seven rebounds and three steals. Now that she won't be playing on Tuesday, will it be easier for Mira Costa to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
