On Tuesday night mid-way through the fourth quarter, senior point guard Helen Petersen, who had contributed 15 points to the scoreboard, fouled out against the Grandview Greyhound who was making a charge. 
With the Mustangs holding a three point lead 45-42, and with the momentum on the side of the Greyhounds the Mustangs needed a player to step up. They looked to Junior forward Sydney Mercer to take over the game.

With their play-off spot finalized, the Mustangs on Saturday tried to play spoilers.
The Toppenish Wildcats came to Prosser, with half the town of Toppenish, as the Wildcats were looking to take home league champions at Mel Bowden court.
For three quarters, the Mustangs played their part as spoilers by taking a 13-point third quarter lead. However, over the final eight minutes, Toppenish 3-pointers, and their own cold shooting out did the Young Mustang's.
