The Mountain Vista Golden Eagles will square off against the Chaparral Wolverines at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both come into the game bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Last Wednesday, Mountain Vista was able to grind out a solid victory over Rangeview, taking the game 46-35. The win made it back-to-back victories for the Golden Eagles.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Chaparral). They claimed a resounding 66-26 win over Ponderosa. The Wolverines have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won seven matchups by 20 points or more this season.
Mountain Vista better focus on containing Lauren Thompson and Maddie Jenkins as the pair were huge in Chaparral's win. Thompson posted six points along with 12 assists and six steals, while Jenkins went 6-for-13 to rack up 19 points and four steals. Those 12 assists gave Thompson a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Salem Sherman, who went 5-for-8 en route to 13 points.
Chaparral is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-9 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 52.3 points over those games. Mountain Vista's record now sits at 14-8.
Mountain Vista came up short against Chaparral in their previous meeting back in January of 2024, falling 62-50. Will Mountain Vista have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more basketball content.
