Lawndale has enjoyed a two-game homestand but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They will take on the Dominguez Dons at 7:00 p.m. on Monday. Both teams come into the match bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Last Wednesday, Lawndale was able to grind out a solid win over South, taking the game 57-50. The win was all the more spectacular given Lawndale's disadvantage in MaxPreps' California basketball rankings (they are ranked 761st, while South is ranked 337th).
Meanwhile, even though Downey scored an imposing 61 points on Friday, Dominguez still came out on top. Dominguez managed a 67-61 victory over Downey. The victory was some much needed relief for Dominguez as it spelled an end to their four-game losing streak.
Lawndale's record is now 5-14. Dominguez's record now sits at 8-11.
Lawndale suffered a grim 65-41 defeat to Dominguez in their previous matchup back in January of 2020. Can Lawndale avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
