On Monday Aliyah Escalera was dialed in and scored 13 points along with seven rebounds and six steals. Considering what she did the last time these two duked it out (she scored three points along with five steals), Chavez should've known better. As if that's not impressive enough, the matchup was her eighth in a row with two or more steals. On the year, Escalera has averaged 9.5 points, 4 steals, and 3.3 assists per match.
Escalera and Shafter will be playing at home against Taft at 6:15 p.m. on Wednesday. Shafter got just the result they wanted when they last faced Taft, probably because Escalera had a great game then too: she scored 17 points along with eight assists and four steals. Can she match (or beat) that stellar performance? Come back here after the game to get analysis of the match and other basketball content.
