Recap: Boys' Game Details From
Friday, Jan. 14, 2000--(Jan. 16, 2000)

There were far too many games played on Friday for us to be able to capture all of the details from every game played, but we did managed to find lots of them reported elsewhere,and we've collected as many of the details as we could. Here's what we managed to locate in between the games yesterday at the Double Pump Hoop Challenge in Long Beach, and preparing some previews for tomorrow's Nike Dream Classic at the Pyramid.

City Section League Games

Sunset Six League

Verdugo Hills 51, North Hollywood 44--Mike Elliot scored 10 of his 23 points in the fourth quarter for visiting Verdugo Hills in a Sunset Six League game. North Hollywood (13-4, 1-1), ranked No. 8 in the Region by the LA Times, was outscored, 18-10, in the fourth quarter. Ken Hauser led North Hollywood with 20 points. Kenny Hauser scored 20 in the loss for North Hollywood.

Grant 68, Canoga Park 65--Dante Witherspoon scored 12 of his game-high 29 points in the fourth quarter, but his three-point shot as time expired bounced off the rim and Canoga Park lost to Grant, 68-65, in a Sunset Six League game Friday night at Canoga Park. The Hunters (8-8, 1-1 in league play) pulled within 66-65 with eight seconds remaining after converting a taunting foul against Grant into a five points. Brandon Edison made a layup but was assessed a technical after pumping his fist in the direction of the Canoga Park bench. Witherspoon sank both free throws with 15 seconds remaining, then made a three-pointer with eight seconds left off the ensuing possession. Grant guard Ryan Logan was intentionally fouled and made both free throws with five seconds remaining. Socrates Carrell led the Lancers (14-3, 2-0) with 17 points. Edison scored 12, Bryan Guevara had 11 points and seven assists, and Krishna Evans added nine points and 12 rebounds. Jonathan Townsend had 15 points for Canoga Park and Cecil Brown had 12 points, six assists and six steals before fouling out with 1:03 remaining. Jammie Harris scored nine of his 10 points in the fourth quarter and had 11 rebounds for the Hunters, who were outrebounded, 46-37. Canoga Park used a stifling full-court press to hold the Lancers scoreless in first four minutes and forced eight of Grant's 18 turnovers in the first quarter. DeWayne Anderson of Grant was held out for the second consecutive game. Grant may have to forfeit 12 victories Anderson played in if he is ruled ineligible for violating City Section residency rules. Anderson played in Tennessee last season but moved back to the area to live with a friend, and City Section rules require returning athletes to live with the legal guardian they were living with at the time of their departure. Grant will seek a waiver from the City Section rules committee Tuesday.

Valley Mission League

San Fernando 66, Reseda 53--Mike Hernandez scored 24 points to lead the host Tigers in a Valley Mission League game. Reseda's Bobby Mitchell made five three-pointers and finished with 25 points.

West Valley League

Taft 80, Granada Hils 75--Freshman Steve Smith (6'-2" Fr. G) scored 25 points and made eight steals to lead Taft to a 80-75 victory over Granada Hills in a West Valley League game at Taft. In its most physical game of the year, Taft, in foul trouble for most of the second half, withstood several rallies by a formidable Granada Hills squad. The Toreadors (12-1 overall, 2-0 in league play), who have won 12 consecutive games since a two-point loss to Pasadena Marshall, had three starters foul out. Taft was whistled for 24 fouls and apparently it could have been worse. Granada Hills, however, squandered its opportunities at the line, making only 15 of 27 (56%) free throws. Granada Hills (8-9, 0-2), which trailed, 42-32, at halftime, made only four of 11 free throws in the second quarter. Taft made 20 of 29 free throws and was 15 of 17 until early in the fourth quarter. Center Gregg Guenther of Taft, who finished with 22 points, made all eight of his free throws, including six in the second quarter. Taft led, 73-66, when Guenther picked up his fifth foul with 2:42 remaining. After Guenther's exit, Drucker was left chewing his nails, relying on three sophomores and a freshman. Forward Ronald Gray, who scored 10 of his 14 points in the first quarter, was the first Toreador to foul out, leaving with 1:46 left in the third quarter. Point guard Derrick McCoy picked up his fifth foul with 1:08 remaining. The Taft reserves never allowed Granada Hills to get closer than six points after Guenther fouled out until Ryan Hicks' three-pointer got the Highlanders to within 79-75 with seven seconds left. Taft led by 16 points twice in the second quarter. The Highlanders scratched their way to within 42-36 on a Hicks jumper early in the third quarter. But Taft's 15-6 run, fueled by Smith's six points, extended the Toreadors' lead to 57-42. Granada Hills, which never led, had to play catch-up for the second time in as many games. Cleveland led the Highlanders from the start in a 60-58 victory on Wednesday. Granada Hills, which made 24 of 72 shots (33%), was led by Midwin Francis' 23 points. Hicks had 18. Walter Burch scored all of his points on five three-point baskets, four in the second half.

Del Rio League

California 53, Whittier 46--California (10-8, 3-0) scored first on David Shellman's basket and never trailed. And although the Condors built their lead to nine points in the first quarter, stretched it to 11 in the second and 12 two minutes into the fourth quarter, there was never a feeling of complete command over the Cardinals. If the Condors felt confident after leading 42-30 with 5:53 left in the final period, Whittier (4-14, 0-3) quickly burst their bubble. Snow Mendoza hit two of his four 3-pointers in the game on back-to-back shots to cut the deficit to 42-36 in less than a minute. Arlie Kearney picked up the slack for California, scoring five points and grabbing a pair of big defensive rebounds to help hold off the Cardinals.

Scottie Frazier had 12 points and Shellman scored 10 as the only Condors in double figures. But California got balanced scoring that included three players, Ruben Anchondo, Kearney and Sal Villegas, with eight and Josh Oltjenbruns with seven. Whittier held a 26-25 rebounding edge; Jermey Barker led the way with eight. But Whittier also led the Condors in turnovers, 19-6. Whittier shot 40 percent from the field (16-of-40); California was 18-of-53 (34 percent).

Del Rey League

St. Paul 58, Bishop Amat 38-- St. Paul won it's first victory in Del Rey League play. The Swordsmen used three big runs during the game and an aggressive defense to prevent Bishop Amat from winning its first league game. St. Paul never trailed and shut down the Lancers' dangerous outside shooting. St. Paul jumped out to an 11-0 lead to start the game and its tenacious defense prevented Bishop Amat from scoring in the first five minutes of the game. Swordsmen guard Abraham Cruz knocked down two 3-pointers during the first few minutes of the game to spark St. Paul's opening run. Despite trailing 22-10 in the second quarter, the Lancers continued to play tough. They used an 8-0 run to cut the gap to 22-18 with four minutes left. But St. Paul refused to relinquish the lead. The Swordsmen scored off fast breaks and a put-back by Michael Holloway at the buzzer to close the half with a 14-2 run and a 36-20 lead. The Lancers trailed 42-32 with a second left in the third period when Dontay Holloway's put-back gave St. Paul a 44-32 lead entering the fourth quarter. That basket sparked a 16-6 run for St. Paul. The Swordsmen defense, which would often double team the Lancers underneath the basket, was able to shut down Bishop Amat's inside game. St. Paul, despite not having a strong inside presence, outrebounded Bishop Amat 49-30. St. Paul was also able to stop Bishop Amat's perimeter game. The Lancers, a hot shooting 3-point team, connected on only three 3-pointers, all in the first half. The Swordsmen contained point guard Eddie Rodriguez. Rodriguez wasn't able to slash to the basket or take an open 3-point shot. He scored only three points. Christian Dundas led the Lancers with 17 points, but was pressured all night. Cruz grabbed eight rebounds to go along with his game-high 23 points. Cruz also hit three 3-pointers and scored six of his team's 14 points in the fourth quarter to help his team pull away.
Michael Holloway, who has orally committed to Arizona State, scored only 10 points but saw limited action in the second half. Dontay Holloway came off the bench and scored nine points and grabbed five rebounds. Carlos Cornejo contributed eight points for the Swordsmen and Landon Cadenas pulled down 11 rebounds.

Santa Maria 49, San Luis Obispo 47-- San Luis Obispo’s Northern League boys basketball title hopes slipped away under the feet of Grant Linscott on Friday night. Santa Maria rallied from a seven-point fourth-quarter deficit to beat the Tigers 49-47 in Tiger Gym. Santa Maria’s Matt Jimenez hit his fourth three-pointer of the game with eight seconds left, giving the Saints a 48-47 lead. After San Luis Obispo called a timeout, Linscott dribbled the ball into the front court. But he slipped and fell. As he regained possession of the ball, the senior guard had very few options. He could not stand up and cast a desperation shot as he would have been called for traveling. So he called timeout with 0.8 seconds remaining. But it was the Tigers’ sixth timeout of the game, one too many, and a technical foul was assessed. Michael Oani made one of two free throws and Santa Maria successfully inbounded the ball at halfcourt to run out the clock. San Luis Obispo, which enjoyed 42-35 and 44-37 leads midway through the second half, made just 41 percent of its floor shots and 45 percent from the free throw line, missing its first six charity shots. The first half saw neither team lead by more than three points. San Luis Obispo led 29-26 at the break. Greg Morales buried a three-pointer from the right corner at the buzzer ending the third quarter, giving the Tigers a 42-35 advantage. Two free throws by Brian Kasarjian resulted in a 44-37 Tiger lead. But San Luis Obispo would score just three points in the final seven minutes of the game Jimenez ignored Santa Maria’s comeback by hitting three consecutive three-pointers, including the game-winner with eight seconds left. The 5-9 senior guard finished with 16 points for game-high scoring honors. The only other player in the game who scored in double figures was San Luis Obispo’s Schuyler Linnemann with 10 points. But the 6-5 senior made just four of 13 floor shots.Linnemann grabbed 10 rebounds and Jeff Jenkins added nine as the Tigers compiled a 34-21 advantage on the boards. The loss dropped San Luis Obispo, 6-9, to 1-3 in league games. Santa Maria improved to 6-10 and 1-2. On Tuesday, San Luis Obispo will host Atascadero for a non-league game.

Muir 88, Arcadia 58--After a slow start, Muir High School's boys basketball team took control with a 13-4 run in the final four minutes of the first quarter
and rolled to an 88-58 Pacific League victory over Arcadia High. Muir struggled against Arcadia in the opening minutes. Quick baskets by
Leo Thorton (eight points, three rebounds) and Kenny Lien (six points, three rebounds) allowed Arcadia to take an early lead. But Muir's speed in
its transition game, coupled with aggressive defense, proved too much for the Apaches (5-14, 0-3). Of Muir's eight first-quarter field goals, six came in transition. In the second quarter, the Mustangs backcourt dominated, taking high-percentage shots and effectively using the passing lanes. Muir scored 32 points in the second quarter for a 50-24 halftime lead.

Pasadena Poly 55, Rio Hondo Prep 46--At the beginning of the game Poly looked like a team that had not practiced much as they turned the ball over repeatedly. Three minutes elapsed before the Panthers' scored the first points of the game when Kirk Herald sank two free throws. Both teams played sluggishly initially, each scoring only 11 points in the first period. But in the second period, Poly started with an 8-0 run which spurred them to a nine-point lead at halftime, 30-21. Guard Jeremiah DeLeon accounted for eight of the Kares' 10 points in the second period. DeLeon finished with 16 points. DeLeon continued to lead the Kares in the second half, but he could not keep pace with the Panthers' 6-foot-7 forward Kirk Herald, who was game-high scorer with 23 points. Herald also led in rebounding with 17. By the end of the third period, Rio Hondo had cut the lead by five to make the period ending score, 38-34, but that was as close as they got.

Serra League

Mater Dei 60, Santa Margarita 55--The top-ranked Monarchs were without three regulars Friday night in their Serra League showdown against No. 7 Santa Margarita and still managed to hold on for a 60-55 victory in the Eagles' gym. Mater Dei's amazing depth became apparent--agonizingly so, for Santa Margarita--when the Monarchs (19-1, 2-0) bolted to a 12-4 lead and withstood a late challenge without their leading scorer, center Jamal Sampson (flu), and forward Mike Strawberry (flu) and guard Christian McGuigan (sprained ankle). Mater Dei guard Cedric Bozeman compiled the best statistical line of the night with 17 points, 10 rebounds, six assists and two blocked shots.

27-19 halftime edge.

South Hills 56, Bonita 53--South Hills came from behind Friday night to beat Bonita 56-53 in a crucial Valle Vista League game. The Huskies were led by guards Torry Stewart and Kraig Smith, who each had 18 points. For the Bearcats, unbeaten in league play prior to Friday night's contest, David Musa led the way with 18. The game was marred by a questionable non-call late in the fourth quarter. Up by four with 1:09 remaining, South Hills' Smith spewed forth a string of profanities after a foul call on Bonita. The tirade went unnoticed by the same referee who hit Bonita's Chris Dean with a technical foul for a similar tirade just moments earlier. The foul resulted in Dean's ejection. Had Smith been cited with a technical, Bonita would have regained the ball; been given two shots and a chance to inbound afterward. The foul would have been Smith's fifth and he would have been tossed from the game. Instead, the Huskies were able to put the game on ice. Bearcat coach David Booze had to be restrained by his players as he attempted to have the referee explain his actions. He was not given a technical. Early on the game didn't look close. By the end of the first quarter, the Bearcats had a 18-9 lead and looked unstoppable. That appearance of invincibility was short-lived. As the Bearcats were held to just five second-quarter points by the Huskies, who scored 12 of their own to pull within two at 23-21.
