What to watch

The Cowboys and Toreadores met last season in Monterey, where Salinas posted a 35-20 victory on Feb. 1, 2025 (full recap: https://scorebooklive.com/california/girls-basketball/games/5271712-salinas-vs-monterey). Monday’s meeting gives Monterey a chance for a measure of revenge on the road, and it gives Salinas a chance to defend home court in what should be a physical league matchup.
