The first half started at slow with both teams neck to neck battling until SLOHS was able to maintain a lead over Mission Prep of ten points in the first half, and their luck wouldn’t run short. In the start of the second half SLOHS dominated Mission Prep by scoring thirty points while mission only scored 18 points.

The Tigers last regular season game will be at home against Templeton on February 13.
Let’s all come out for senior night and watch Boys Basketball destroy the Eagles as they gear up for CIF Playoffs.
