Meanwhile, Hanford West was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap on Tuesday as they fell 54-49 to Exeter.

Kerman beat Hanford West 80-67 in their previous meeting two weeks ago. The rematch might be a little tougher for Kerman since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
