We're here live at the Ventura College Athletic Event Center where No. 10 Santa Ana (19-11) visits No. 7 Ventura (25-7) tonight at 7.

The Pirates, WSC North champions for a 17th straight year, look to end their three-game postseason losing streak against the third-place team from the Orange Empire Conference.

The night is also a homecoming for Santa Ana assistant coach Kristin DeSimone, who played for Ventura from 1997 to 1999. The Agoura High product was an all-state tournament team member in 1999.

"I took 10 minutes for reminiscing," said DeSimone."Now we're ready to go."
