The Trojans have one of the smallest winning margins in the conference, averaging about nine points more than opponents this season. Lynden Christian is also 6-1 and third in the conference. The Lyncs have scored nearly 61 points per game.
Western Washington hosts its rival Central Washington in an early Great Northwest Athletic Conference matchup. The Vikings are 0-1 in the conference while the Wildcats are 1-0.
