WHAT to LOOK for THIS WEEK WALTON...the Trojans will host the Raiders at the end of the week and try to make it a regular season sweep over Walton...the first game was a thriller that came down to a couple clutch plays by Juwan Dickey with under a minute to go.lassiter dominated the second and fourth quarters to pull out the three point victory.three Trojans scored in double digits in the first meeting...the key on defense will be how well Lassiter can contain guard Rico Overall, who had 18 points in the previous game...also, Hahn and Dickey will have thier hands full in the paint with big man, Shawn Morgan, who finished with 17 last time..look for a big crowd at the Trojan House as this year has already seen the Raiders and Trojans hook up for at least three thrilling contests spanning both the fall and winter sports seasons..
