Jeff’s Take on the Contest:

This should be a great game. It’s a battle of gigantic proportions between two outstanding, amazing, and incredible teams. I think the Mustangs find a way to win in the end, but it’s going to be a very tough game for Stanton. Summerland is going to bring everything they’ve got and then some. This is easily a State Semifinal Playoff Matchup in the regular season. It’s that big of a game.
