What to watch

The teams last met on Dec. 13, 2024, when Palo Verde Valley defeated Rancho Mirage 44-32 at Rancho Mirage. That result gives the Yellowjackets recent momentum in the matchup, but early-season nonleague games are often about finding rotation depth and establishing identity — expect coaches to use this one to tune lineups as the season settles in.
