The Chatsworth Chancellors will challenge the Palisades Dolphins at 7:45 p.m. on Monday. Chatsworth knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past 28 games -- so hopefully Palisades likes a good challenge.
Chatsworth is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Wednesday. They walked away with a 62-51 victory over Fairfax. Given the Chancellors' advantage in MaxPreps' California basketball rankings (they are ranked 64th, while the Lions are ranked 295th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Chatsworth's win was the result of several impressive offensive performances. One of the most notable came from V'Elijah Miller, who dropped a double-double with 14 points and 11 rebounds. Those 11 boards gave Miller a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Alijah Arenas, who posted 21 points and eight rebounds.
Chatsworth smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 12 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least 11 offensive boards in four consecutive matches.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Palisades). They blew past Venice 81-52 on Wednesday. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest win the Dolphins have posted since January 17th.
Palisades has been performing well recently as they've won six of their last eight contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 19-10 record this season. Chatsworth pushed their record up to 21-7 with the victory, which was their 17th straight at home dating back to last season.
Chatsworth beat Palisades 68-58 in their previous meeting back in June of 2021. The rematch might be a little tougher for Chatsworth since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
