SANTA MARIA, Calif. (Interstat) — The Allan Hancock College Bulldogs, fresh off a road victory, will look to continue their momentum when they host the struggling Coalinga Falcons in a California community college men’s basketball game on Saturday, December 6, 2025.

The Bulldogs (5-4) are coming off an 82-74 win at Bakersfield on Thursday, powered by a standout performance from Noah Morris. The forward scored 25 points and grabbed nine rebounds in the victory, continuing a strong start to his season. Morris has been a consistent force, recording three double-doubles and averaging a near double-double through nine games.

Allan Hancock has found success at home this season, boasting a 4-1 record in Santa Maria. Their balanced attack, which also features Arlind Konjuhi and Mehki Grant, will be tested against a Falcons squad seeking to end a skid.

Coalinga (2-8) enters on a four-game losing streak, most recently falling 77-69 at Cuesta on Wednesday. Despite the team’s struggles, guard Kristian Graham has provided a bright spot. He poured in 15 points in just one minute of action in that loss, showcasing explosive scoring potential. Support from Whylkeems Estimond and Trey Sanks will be crucial if the Falcons hope to pull an upset on the road, where they are 1-5 this season.

The teams appear headed in opposite directions. Allan Hancock has won three of its last five, while Coalinga has lost eight of its last nine after a season-opening win. According to Interstat’s game simulator, this contest is projected to be a high-scoring affair, ending in a 100-100 tie.

Saturday’s matchup is the final tune-up for both teams before a brief break for finals. Allan Hancock will host Monterey Peninsula on Dec. 11, while Coalinga travels to face Santa Barbara on the same date.
