Why this one matters

The Bruins and Cougars open the week with a coastal clash that could set the tone for midseason nonleague scheduling. The last time these teams met — Jan. 9, 2025, at Illinois Valley — Brookings-Harbor pulled a 40-38 win in a tight finish. Notably, pregame projections for that meeting gave Illinois Valley about a 66.6% edge to win and Brookings-Harbor 33.4%, so expect another competitive, physical game.
