The Central Valley Cougars just played yesterday, but they'll still head out to face the Stuart Broncos at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Keep an eye on the score for this one: the two teams posted some lofty point totals in their previous games.
While Cougars fans will have to keep waiting for their team to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Thursday's season opener. They really took it to Palmer for the full four quarters, racking up a 72-40 victory. The match was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point the Cougars had established a 30 point advantage.
Tae Soto went supernova for Central Valley, going 8 for 11 en route to 20 points plus seven rebounds and three steals. Another player making a difference was Trenton Genereux, who went 5 for 9 en route to 11 points.
Meanwhile, you can't lose the game if you win every quarter, and that was precisely Stuart's strategy against Niobrara/Verdigre on Thursday. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that Stuart blew Niobrara/Verdigre out of the water with a 65-27 final score. With the Broncos ahead 40-14 at the half, the contest was all but over already.
Central Valley might still be hurting after the 68-46 defeat they got from Stuart in their previous matchup back in December of 2023. Can Central Valley avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
