Game of the Day

Share

No. 3 Westchester (25-2) vs. Brooklyn (N.Y.) Lincoln (17-8)

Today at Sovereign Bank Arena, Trenton, N.J., 3 p.m. PST

Why it matters: Westchester is taking on a Lincoln team it already defeated, 68-56, in December in the City of Palms Classic. The Railsplitters, led by standout shooting guard Lance Stephenson, are in the midst of a busy stretch in which they will play four games in four days. “I’d like to play someone we haven’t played, but it doesn’t matter,” Westchester Coach Ed Azzam said. “They’re going to be motivated to play us because we beat them.”

Why it matters: Sylmar secured a co-championship alongside Reseda in the Valley Mission League. Reseda probably will still be the top-seeded team in the City Section Division II playoffs and Sylmar strengthened its case for a seeding among the top eight in Division I.

Records: Sylmar 18-7, 9-1; Reseda 19-7, 9-1.
