Foothill didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Glendora in their previous matchup back in November of 2019, but they still walked away with a 62-58 victory. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Glendora's Jorday Holmes, who dropped a double-double on 22 points and 16 rebounds.
