The San Pedro Pirates head into this week’s rivalry matchup against the Narbonne Gauchos with a 3-3 record. The Pirates aim to push their Ws to the majority while the Gauchos, who are already on the plus side with a 4-3 record, hope that their five big name recruits help carry their team to victory.
Raymond Scott, Jermar Jefferson, Darien Butler, J.J. Tucker, and Jalen Chatman have the attention of big name schools like Oregon and USC which has made trouble for past opponents this season. This game often decides who the Marine League champions are, and with two close records, this is anyone’s game.
