Background and storyline
This early-January league test pits the Vanden Vikings against the Sacramento Dragons in what should be a physical, hard-nosed high school contest. The schools last met on Nov. 17, 2018, at Sacramento High (see last meeting: https://scorebooklive.com/california/girls-basketball/games/3645875-vanden-vs-sacramento). With both programs jockeying for position in league play, Wednesday’s result could set the tone for the weeks ahead.
