Why it matters

This early-season tournament tilt gives both teams a chance to measure themselves against out-of-state competition. Harvard-Westlake will play at home in Studio City, while Democracy Prep makes the trip from Nevada. There is no last-meeting data listed on the SBLive game page, so this one could set the tone if either program is looking to build momentum heading into January.
