Why this one matters

This is a local tilt between two Irvine programs with junior varsity pride on the line. Their most recent meeting on April 30, 2021, saw Northwood earn a 50-40 victory (game details: https://scorebooklive.com/california/basketball/games/792464-northwood-vs-woodbridge). Both teams also have upcoming JV assignments on the schedule — Northwood at Portola on Jan. 27 (https://scorebooklive.com/california/basketball/games/5590565-northwood-vs-portola) and Woodbridge hosting Laguna Beach on Jan. 26 (https://scorebooklive.com/california/basketball/games/5493032-laguna-beach-vs-woodbridge) — so coaches will be watching minutes and matchups closely.
