On Wednesday night, the No. 16 seeded Cerritos College got past No. 17 MiraCosta College 70-67, which now opens the door for No. 1 Fullerton to host the Falcons for round 2 of the SoCal Regionals this Saturday night.
It was the Falcon's 13th straight win as the team ascends to a 20-9 overall record. It will be the first meeting between the Cerritos and Fullerton (24-4 overall) since the 2019-20 season, which was a close 61-60 FC win.
