IMPERIAL, Calif. (Interstat) — The San Bernardino Valley College Wolverines look to build on a decisive victory when they visit the struggling Imperial Valley College Arabs in a California men’s junior college basketball matchup on Friday, Nov. 21, 2025.

San Bernardino Valley (3-3) is coming off a 74-61 home win over Santa Monica on Thursday. Jaden Riley led the way with 25 points and six assists, while Jaison Joyce added 18 points and six rebounds. The win snapped a two-game skid for the Wolverines, who had previously suffered lopsided losses to San Francisco and Citrus.

Imperial Valley (0-6) is still searching for its first win. The Arabs are coming off a 103-68 road loss to Los Angeles Pierce on Nov. 14 and have lost each of their games by an average of 32 points. Their closest contest was a 96-69 loss to Copper Mountain on Oct. 31.

Despite the teams’ contrasting trajectories, a projection from Interstat’s game simulator forecasts a 100-100 tie. However, the same service’s ELO rating system gives San Bernardino Valley a 99.80 percent probability of winning.

Following this game, San Bernardino Valley travels to face Fullerton on Nov. 26. Imperial Valley’s next contest is at Chaffey on Dec. 11.
