The result was an unpleasant reminder to Maricopa of the 22-9 loss they experienced in the two teams' previous head-to-head fixture back in December of 2023.
Shandon found their leader in underclassman Danna Zamora, who scored eight points.
Maricopa's defeat was their eighth straight at home, which bumped their record down to 0-8. Those losses could be blamed on the team's offensive performance across that stretch, as they only averaged 14.0 points per game. As for Shandon, their win bumped their record up to 2-5.
Maricopa won't have much time to rest: their next matchup is against Coast Union at 3:30 p.m. on January 17th.
