Why this one matters

The teams renew a meeting from Dec. 8, 2022, when Apple Valley left Orange with a 51-27 victory (box score and recap: https://scorebooklive.com/california/girls-basketball/games/2502952-orange-vs-apple-valley). Late-night tournament slots can produce surprising momentum swings — and Apple Valley (which brought more SBLive fans to the matchup) will look to replicate that earlier win in hostile territory.
