The NOVA Academy Eagles will be staying on the road on Thursday to face off against the Newport Christian Seahawks at 5:00 p.m. on December 7th. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this match.
Last Friday, it was a hard-fought game, but NOVA Academy had to settle for a 41-39 loss against Samueli Academy.
NOVA Academy's defeat came about despite a quality game from Valerie Lopez, who scored 21 points. The game was Lopez's third in a row with at least ten points. Another player making a difference was Isabella Torres, who scored 10 points.
Meanwhile, Newport Christian's recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Monday after their third straight loss. They took a hard 46-28 fall against Lancaster Baptist.
The losses dropped NOVA Academy to 1-3 and Samueli Academy to 3-2.
