The Grossmont Foothillers will be taking part in a tournament against the Christian Patriots at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Grossmont has been getting the ball to fall more lately as they've increased their point totals each of their last three games.
Grossmont will head into Saturday's game hoping to keep the good times rolling: they had to skate by with only a three-point margin when they last took the court, which might have inspired the 25-point drubbing they dealt Poway on Saturday. Everything went Grossmont's way against Poway as Grossmont made off with a 61-36 win. Given the Foothillers' advantage in MaxPreps' California basketball rankings (they are ranked 65th, while the Titans are ranked 335th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
