Pleasant Hill won the last time they faced Simpson and things went their way on Friday too. The Pleasant Hill Eagles breezed by the Simpson Broncos to the tune of 74-35. The Eagles have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 11 matchups by 20 points or more this season.

Pleasant Hill's victory was their fourth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 22-10. Those victories came thanks to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 61.5 points per game. As for Simpson, they have traveled a rocky road recently having lost ten of their last 12 contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 8-18 record this season.

Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Pleasant Hill will host Westlake at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. One thing working in Westlake's favor is that they have posted at least 55 points in their last three games. As for Simpson, they will welcome Florien at 5:00 p.m. on Monday. Florien knows how to get points on the board -- the squad has finished with 55 points or more in their past three matchups -- so hopefully Simpson likes a good challenge.
