A local early‑season meeting between two San Diego area programs takes place Thursday night at Mission Bay High. With nonleague play in full swing, both squads will look to sharpen rotations and set a tone before league play resumes. There’s no previous meeting listed on the game page, so this could be a fresh matchup that gives coaches an early look at how their rosters match up against neighboring competition.
