The 2024-2025 junior college basketball season has taken serious shape now, as we are more than half of the way through conference play in the Arizona Community College Athletic Conference (ACCAC). Eastern Arizona (15-2, 5-1) lost their first conference game to a tough College of Southern Nevada program, but remains in first place in the conference standings among Division-I programs.

Pima has won an amazing (18) games in a row this season, and remains undefeated on the season and in the conference among ACCAC Division-II programs.
