Why this one matters

Nonleague nights like this one are often where teams experiment with lineups and build chemistry before league play heats up. Horizon Prep will try to protect home court and sharpen rotations, while Orange Glen — coming off a busy stretch — will look to tune up before a Saturday home game. This matchup won’t have a league standing on the line, but it can set the tone for both programs heading into January.
