Trinity has been performing well recently as they've won 14 of their last 17 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 22-7 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 51.5 points over those games. Modoc's record now sits at 22-8.
Trinity was able to grind out a solid win over Modoc in their previous meeting back in January, winning 47-39. The rematch might be a little tougher for Trinity since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
