The Burbank Titans's recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Wednesday after their tenth straight defeat. They had to suffer through a rough 73-24 loss at the hands of River City. Burbank was in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 49-21.

Bufford hasn't dropped below two steals for 14 straight games. The team also got some help courtesy of Larayna Osako-Cain, who scored eight points along with five steals.
