South Ridge played their first game of the playoffs against Career Success last night. The Mavericks got off to a sluggish start, trailing 7-15 after the 1st Quarter. But the tide changed in the 2nd Quarter when the Mavericks posted 27 points and held Career Success to only 13 points. South Ridge never gave up the lead, ending in a sounding 55-49 victory. 

 That victory pits the Mavercks against top seed West Phoenix in tonight's 2nd round of the playoffs. Thank you to all who attended last night, your cheers were heard throughout not just the stadium, but in our players spirit. Come out again as the Mavericks move closer to victory. 

Tip-off for tonight’s game is at 7:30pm and will be played at Phoenix College, located at: Phoenix College, 1202 W. Thomas Rd., Phoenix, AZ 85013. Admission costs $5.00 for adults and $2.00 for students.

The Varsity Basketball team will begin the post-season against Career Success tonight, Feb. 21st, 2012. The Varsity Mavericks ended the regular season with a 6-4 record. They made a playoff appearance last year as well, but
