The Red Raiders were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Trojans apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in November of 2023.

Waite has been hot for a while, having posted eight or more rebounds the last nine times he's played. Easton Fruit was another key player, posting eight points along with six rebounds and two steals.
