Why this one matters

This meeting is a quick turnaround and a chance for Buhach Colony to avenge last year’s result: when the teams met Feb. 5, 2025, at Buhach Colony, El Capitan won 61-45. The rematch flips home-court advantage — a factor that could matter late in a tight league race. Both teams have league duties coming up immediately after this game (El Capitan hosts Atwater on Feb. 6; Buhach Colony hosts Merced on Feb. 6), so momentum matters.
