The Toppers took to the boards Tuesday night to play a nonconference game against the Valencia Jaguars in Griffith Gym. The two teams were evenly matched, and the score went back and forth with only a few points separating them. Then in the final few minutes of the game the Jaguars scored and took the lead and went into a stall to protect their lead and won the game 30-23. Photo by John McHale/ladailypost.com
