The Pierce Bears will challenge the Durham Trojans at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Durham entered their tilt with Hamilton on Saturday with three consecutive wins but they'll enter their next game with four. They enjoyed a cozy 45-29 victory over the Braves. Given the Trojans' advantage in MaxPreps' California basketball rankings (they are ranked 347th, while the Braves are ranked 744th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
