What to watch

This one gives Mercer Island home-floor advantage at Mercer Island HS and an opportunity to build momentum before a Saturday date with Edmonds-Woodway. Hazen will look to bounce back quickly — the Highlanders’ next listed game after this matchup is at Renton on Dec. 8. Neither team’s official SBLive pages list a game-day score here, so expect this to be a true early-season measuring stick.
