Washington hasn't had much luck against North recently, but that could start to change on Friday. The Rams will venture away from home to square off against the Mustangs at 7:00 p.m. Washington knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past six matchups -- so hopefully North likes a good challenge.
The home team had come away the winner the last four times Washington and Independence had met, but sadly for the fans who attended this one that wasn't the case. The Rams fell 69-56 to the Patriots on Wednesday. While losing is never fun, the Rams can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Arizona basketball rankings (they are ranked 264th, while the Patriots are ranked 111th).
Meanwhile, after soaring to 72 points the game before, North was a bit more limited in their game on Wednesday. They were beaten by Carl Hayden Community 78-29. The Mustangs haven't had much luck with the Falcons recently, as the team has come up short the last seven times they've met.
Washington's defeat dropped their record down to 4-11. As for North, their loss dropped their record down to 6-12.
Washington might still be hurting after the 61-36 defeat they got from North in their previous matchup back in January of 2025. Thankfully for the Rams, Miles Swift (who dropped a double-double with 20 points and 17 rebounds) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
