What to watch

Foothill Tech and Ventura met on Dec. 1 in Ventura — a classic defensive grind that ended 54-52 in favor of Foothill Tech. The Dragons outscored the Cougars by two in a four-quarter battle (18-8, 10-18, 14-15, 12-11), so Friday’s rematch could come down to execution in the late stages. Both teams have important league tests coming after this meeting: Ventura’s next game is at St. Bonaventure on Dec. 2, and Foothill Tech hosts Hueneme on Jan. 2 according to their schedules on SBLive.
