The St. Pius X Sartans will be taking part in a tournament against the Manzano Monarchs at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this contest.
St. Pius X had to start their season on the road on Tuesday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They fell 67-63 to St. Michael's.
Meanwhile, Manzano managed to keep up with Cibola until halftime on Monday, but things quickly went downhill from there. The Monarchs had to suffer through a 76-47 loss at the hands of the Cougars. The Monarchs haven't had much luck with the Cougars recently, as the team has come up short the last five times they've met.
Everything came up roses for St. Pius X against Manzano in their previous meeting back in December of 2024, as the squad secured a 68-38 win. Will the Sartans repeat their success, or do the Monarchs have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
