Why this one matters

The Wolverines travel in looking to build on early-season momentum while Emerald hosts a league test on its home floor. Their last meeting came earlier this year — Emerald edged Deer Valley 51-50 on Jan. 28, 2025 (game recap: https://scorebooklive.com/california/girls-basketball/games/5149194-deer-valley-vs-emerald) — so expect a competitive, physical game where minutes and execution will matter in the late stages.
