CIF Game Recaps: Results & Details From
Tournaments Thursday, 12/27/01--(Dec. 30, 2001)

We were out and gone to various tournaments all week, and so we will be posting recaps of the week, and some special summaries of the larger tournaments. This is a late recap of what occurred this past Thursday, specifcally the games that were played at various tournaments all over SoCal and elsewhere on Thursday , December 27, 2001. There were no league games played, so we have only tournament results to report. Most of the scores and details from the action that took place is shown below, but if we're missing a score, it's either because no one sent it to us, or it wasn't reported by the local papers (the ones which happened to be available at the time) or on the various newspapers' websites. Scores and details have been compiled from various sources including other websites (e.g., official tournament websites) and media sources. If you have details, or a box score from a game that's not shown below, e-mail it to us.

Ganesha 103, Brea Olinda 94 (OT) --If the shot hadn't fallen, Mike Efevberha and his Ganesha High teammates would have had nothing to hang their heads about. Playing in the showcase game against the host team, the Giants had already given Brea Olinda all that it could handle.But that wasn't enough. Efevberha's three-pointer with one second remaining in regulation tied the game at 83-83 and the Giants made 14 of 20 free-throw attempts in overtime to escape with a 103-94 victory over the Wildcats in the pool play portion of the Brea Olinda Tournament.Efevberha's three-pointer, which came after Brea Olinda's best shooter, Erik Geisler, missed a free-throw, gave the 6-foot-3 Ganesha forward 50 points; he added eight more in overtime to finish with a career-high 58. Efevberha apparently suffered a broken finger with two minutes remaining in overtime. He remained in the game until the outcome was no longer in question.

La Serna 43, Don Lugo 40--Mike Guzik's three-pointer at the buzzer failed to connect as the Conquistadores dropped a pool-play game at the Cantwell Tournament. Don Lugo (3-11), which faces Mountain View at 10:30 a.m. today, was led by Roger Amaya, who produced a double-double with 15 points and 11 rebounds.

Chaminade 78, Lancaster 74-- Mike Webb did everything in his power to keep his Lancaster High teammates close in Thursday's quarterfinal game of the Chaminade boys' basketball tournament. However, Webb's 27 points and fourth-quarter heroics weren't enough. Host Chaminade of West Hills defeated the Eagles 78-74 to advance to the semifinals and face Calabasas. In the end, Chaminade (11-2) had too much firepower -- Jon Todd scored 24 points and had 16 rebounds, Adrian Aye-Darko scored 18 and Josh Jones scored all 10 of his points on putbacks after getting offensive rebounds.

Calabasas 61, El Camino Real (LA City) 53--Steve Saunders scored 10 of his 16 points in the final quarter to lead the Coyotes (9-5) over the Conquistadores of Woodland Hills in a quarterfinal game.

The first period belonged to Haywood, who scored 13 of his 24 points during the first eight minutes to spark the Lancers to a 23-20 lead.

University, a state Div. 5 semifinalist last year, was led by John Casnocha's 22 points. Bishop played without second-leading scorer Marcus Brown, who's in Chicago for the holidays, and was down to seven players after Jeff Boehm fouled out in the third quarter.

Garces Memorial 69, El Segundo 51-- Working mostly from the inside, Garces' Anthony Esparza scored a team-high 23 points, and junior point guard Kyle Shiloh added 18 points and eight assists as Garces pulled away from the state's 18th ranked Eagles for a 69-51 victory. The Rams are the only undefeated team remaining in the round-robin tournament heading into a game against Liberty. Garces closes out play Saturday at 7 p.m. against Fresno-San Joaquin Memorial. Esparza exploited the much-smaller El Segundo back court in the second quarter, scoring 10 straight points during one stretch to help the Rams build a 29-22 lead in the first half. El Segundo's 6-foot-5 senior Dashawn Strong scored 11 first quarter points to keep El Segundo ahead initially at 15-11. Matched up against 7-foot sophomore Robert Swift, the quicker Strong made five of his first six shots before Lacava countered with Derrick Norris and Christian Martin. Norris and Martin took turns guarding Strong, limiting him to just three field goals the rest of the way. He made 10-of-14 free throws and finished with a game-high 26 points. The Rams also received a solid defensive performance from Shiloh, who was assigned the Eagles' athletic senior Jeramie Hopson. The 6-foot-3 junior, who scored a team-high 22 points in El Segundo's 70-42 victory over Liberty earlier Thursday, scored 14 against Garces, but only made one field goal in the second half. Trailing 33-24 at the half, El Segundo (10-2) managed to stay close in the third quarter. After Garces scored seven of the first eight points, capped by a dunk by Swift dunk that gave the Rams a 40-25 lead, the Eagles rallied to cut the lead to eight points. Strong, who was saddled with three fouls in the first half, scored five points and reserve Steve Urrutia tipped in a shot at the buzzer to cut Garces' lead to 42-34 heading into the final quarter. That's when things fell apart for El Segundo. Garces outscored the Eagles 9-4 to start the fourth, and eventually built its biggest lead, 67-47, on a steal and layin by Shiloh in the final minute. The Rams' final run was aided by a technical foul on Sabosky that led to four free throws by Shiloh and a follow jam by Swift. Swift had 12 points, nine rebounds, four assists and two blocks.

San Joaquin Memorial 63, St. Joseph 48--Antonio Lawrence scored 27 points, and freshmen Dwain Williams added 16 to lead the Panthers. Sophomore Stewart Kussler (5-7) led St. Joseph with 15 points.

Rocklin 65, Vista 53--Throughout the season's first month, the Panthers have made mistakes similar to the ones that sent them to a 65-53 loss to Rocklin in Thursday's quarterfinal round of the Mt. Carmel Holiday Hoops Classic. That doesn't mean there's no hope for the Panthers (5-7), who struggled to match the trapping, up-tempo style of Rocklin (9-4), the defending tournament and Sac-Joaquin Section champion. An ankle injury to forward Justin Waassanaar will sideline one of the Panthers' most reliable players for six to eight weeks. And starting point guard Ben Kelly (eight points) joined the team late after helping the school's football team to the CIF Division I title. Kelly committed four fouls in the first half Thursday, but he rarely left the court. That's partially because the Panthers don't have many ballhandlers capable of handling Rocklin's pressure. Even 6-foot-7 center Chris Nickolei, who scored a game-high 25 points, needs work. The team's leading scorer, Nickolei also blocked five shots Thursday, but he's not yet the rebounding force the Panthers need him to be. Teammate Marcus Romero (four points) is the Panthers' best rebounder. He stands 6-foot-1. Vista trailed by 18 points on two occasions in the second half against Rocklin. The Panthers ended the third quarter on an 11-4 run to close their deficit to 49-38, but Rocklin started the fourth quarter with a 10-2 run to clinch the game. Adam Snyder, last year's tournament MVP, scored 23 points for Rocklin.

Rowland 74, Diamond Ranch 70 (3 OT)--Junior guard Cameron Tucker dribbled the length of the court before dropping in a buzzer-beating layup to lift Rowland High's boys basketball team to a 74-70 victory over Diamond Ranch in a triple-overtime thriller in the championship quarterfinals of the Nogales Tournament on Thursday night. The Raiders forced overtime when Adam Wong connected on a 3-pointer with five seconds remaining in regulation, then created the need for a third overtime when senior Marques Smith buried a pair of free throws with two seconds left in the second extra session. Delano Gray's 3-pointer for Diamond Ranch (9-3) at the end of the first overtime also played a role in the marathon contest.Wong finished with a career-best 10 assists for Rowland (10-3), which chipped away at a seven-point deficit it faced starting the fourth quarter. Sophomore Larry Tieu scored all of his points from the free-throw line, converting on 13 of his 16 chances. VaShon Pruitt poured in 18 points to pace the Raiders offensively. Rich Coombs scored 22 points to lead the Panthers. Marques Smith hit two free throws with two seconds to play in the second overtime to extend the game and Cameron Tucker scored five of his eight points in the third overtime for Rowland (10-3). Vashon Pruitt led the Raiders with 18 points and 10 rebounds and Adam Wong added 14 points and 10 assists for the Raiders. Rich Coombs scored 22 points to lead Diamond Ranch (9-3.) Four players fouled out for the Panthers as they lost a heartbreaker in the quarterfinals of the Nogales Tournament. Rowland sent the game into overtime on Adam Wong's three-pointer with four seconds left in regulation. Diamond Ranch's Delano Gray answered with a three-pointer with three seconds remaining in the first overtime. The Panthers (7-3) nearly won it in the second extra period, but the Raiders converted two free throws to send the game into the third overtime. Richard Coombs led Diamond Ranch with 22 points and 11 rebounds and Gray had 14 points. Mike Criscione had seven assists and five steals to go with Evan Flagg's six assists. All four fouled out.

San Dimas 68, Ontario 64--Led by Curtis Small's game-high 25 points and Ryan Gunderson's 21, the Saints survived a tight game with the Jaguars to advance into the third round of the Nogales Tournament. With the game tied 56-56 and little more than two minutes remaining, Small hit a three-pointer. San Dimas (9-3) sealed the game by converting 11 of 16 free-throw attempts in the final period. Ontario was led by Marcel Mack and David Dunn, each of whom scored 19 points. San Dimas (9-3) also received 21 points from guard Ryan Gunderson and 16 from senior center Antouan Mesropian. San Dimas, which shot 50 percent, forged ahead, 51-48, following two free throws each from Small and Gunderson to begin the fourth quarter. Ontario countered and took a 54-51 lead with 4:54 left following a five-foot turnaround by Dunn and back-to-back layups by Mack. San Dimas' Schuyler Amirshahi then drained a 3-pointer to tie the score before Mesropian tipped in a rebound with 3:01 left for a 56-54 lead. Small followed with a three-point play for a five-point lead, but Ontario was able to cut it to 60-58 following a 16-footer by Chris Taylor with 1:10 remaining. Small then drained a 3-pointer to give the Saints a 63-58 lead with 42 seconds left before San Dimas sank five of six free throws down the stretch to secure the victory.

La Puente 85, Baldwin Park 82 (OT)--Conrad Olvera and Ismail Rodriguez combined for nine points in an 11-8 overtime period to lead La Puente (6-5). Olvera finished with 31 points and Rodriguez added 24. Baldwin Park was led by Geary Thompson with 27 and Kris Lewis with 24.

Alta Loma 76, Azusa 32-- The Braves bounced back from a loss to Paramount the previous day to whip the Aztecs, thanks to a 33-0 first quarter in the consolation quarterfinals of the Nogales Tournament. Alta Loma (9-4) was led by Terrence Hundley with 16 points. Chris Campbell scored 13 and Adrian Warren and Marcus Carter each had 10.

Arrowhead Christian 44, Coachella Valley 41--Josh Cloud scored 12 points for Arrowhead Christian (7-0). Cloud hit back-to-back three-pointers to close a onetime 24-18 deficit to a tie score. The Eagles' point guard hit another one to close out the third quarter, leaving ACA with a lead it never gave up. But it took a strong defensive play by Mark Johnson, who blocked a breakaway layup attempt to save a one-point lead. And when Will Britt hit the game-clinching layup, ACA's record improved to 7-0. Cloud wound up as the game's top scorer, hitting 11 of his 12 points in the second half. The Eagles trailed 22-14 at halftime, scoring just five points in the opening quarter. A key play might have been Ryan Benson's missed free throw. After hitting the first, Benson rebounded his own miss, scored and cut a 20-8 lead to 20-11. It turned out to be Benson's only points of the game. Alan Lewis buried a three-pointer at the end of the half. It was a new-look Eagles team in the second half, blitzing the Arabs with a 17-6 run. Johnson, a 5-11 guard, blocked Nate Ramos' breakaway layup attempt in the final minute - saving a 42-41 lead. When Britt scored at the other end, the Eagles led by three. The Arabs called timeout with 2 1/2 seconds left. ACA's defense was spread out around the three-point line.

Pasadena Poly 43, Silver Valley 41--Matt Robbins scored 14 points and Kevin Kawachi added 11 points for Pasadena Poly (4-7).

Calvin Christian (San Diego) 69, Bloomington Christian 46--James Baker scored 17 and led four other starters in double figures as the Calvin Christian High boys basketball team cruised to a 69-46 victory Thursday over Bloomington Christian in the Knight Time Classic at Ontario Christian High. Thomas Donovan (13 points), Kevin Prins (12), Tom Roberts (11), Justin Tam (10), all paced the Crusaders. Calvin Christian (4-6) jumped out to a 17-4 lead after one quarter, but Bloomington Christian cut the deficit to nine at the half. After the break, the Crusaders proceeded to shoot 17-of-26 from the field and outscore their opponent 43-24. Baker scored 12 of his points in the second half on 6-of-6 shooting.

Costa Mesa senior guard Chad Vakili drained six of his seven three-pointers in the second half to rally the Mustangs (8-5) from an 18-point deficit, but just fell short as the Jaguars won the quarterfinal game Thursday night. Cabrillo, a 7-year-old school which has never played in the CIF Southern Section playoffs in any sport but feels it has a chance this season to crack the barrier, outscored Mesa in the extra period, 13-5, to advance to the semifinals against Corona Centennial. Costa Mesa, which made only 3 of 15 three-pointers in the first half, stormed back from a 47-29 deficit early in the third quarter to take the lead in the fourth. Although Cal State LA-bound senior guard David Conte (22 points) fouled out for Costa Mesa in regulation, the Mustangs claimed three leads in the waning moments, the last at 64-62 with 0:53 to play on Conte's short jumper. Jushay Rockett, a 6-foot-4 senior who scored a team-high 16 points with 13 rebounds and two blocks, tipped in a missed three-point shot to tie the game, 64-64, with 0:40 left. Both teams had a chance to win it in regulation. Cabrillo handed Costa Mesa two points on a third-quarter technical foul, when Rockett was whistled for hanging on the rim after a thunderous dunk, in which he took off midway in the key. Cabrillo 14 29 15 8 13 - 77 Costa Mesa 11 16 16 21 5 - 69 Cabrillo - Carter 8, G. Brown 10, Friar 10, Nero 5, Rockett 16, H.

Mater Dei 75, Foothill 29-- The Monarchs cruised to a 75-29 victory over Foothill on Thursday night in a championship bracket second-round game at the Orange Holiday Classic at Chapman University. Wednesday night, they took a 97-31 victory against Anaheim, and they just might be headed for a rematch against Centennial of Corona, which beat Mater Dei two weeks ago in the championship game of the Tournament of Champions at Ocean View. That loss, and especially the three in a row last week, have frustrated McKnight, but he knows why Mater Dei has struggled at times. That, of course, is uncharacteristic of a team that wins a CIF-Southern Section championship just about every season. Mater Dei is starting a freshman, Mike Gerrity, at point guard, and there are underclassmen at other positions. The only senior who starts is Mike Strawberry. And one of Mater Dei's top returning players, 6-foot-9 junior forward Harrison Schaen, missed the Monarchs' first several games because of a foot fracture. The Monarchs will play Orange, which is off to a 12-1 start, in one semifinal tonight at 8:30. Centennial of Corona plays Cabrillo of Long Beach in the other semifinal at 6:50.

Orange 66, Tustin 59--The Panthers rallied from an 11-point, second-quarter deficit to beat the Tillers in an intense, second-round championship bracket game. Orange's Markus Smith, battling a stomach ailment, scored 15 of his game-high 22 points in the fourth quarter.

Oliver made 15 of 23 field goals, including 7 of 9 on three-pointers, and 10 of 12 on free throws to lead Lake Arrowhead Rim of the World. Trailing 32-25 with five minutes left in the first half, Fontana went on a 23-5 run and entered halftime with an 11-point lead.

Redlands 68, Kaiser 67 (OT) -- Ryan Rogers' hit a three-pointer to tie the game late in regulation. Next, in overtime, Rogers delivered another key trey to tie it in overtime. The Terrier senior guard then hit two free throws with 12 seconds left to give Redlands the lead for good, 68-67. Keith Earl led the Terriers with 22 points and seven rebounds. Rogers had 21 points and eight rebounds. Senior David Paxman had a strong game, scoring 10 points and eight rebounds. The Terriers trailed all through the first half, trailing by a point at the end of the first two quarters, 30-29. The Terriers took their first lead to open the third quarter on a basket by Rogers. The Terriers built a seven point lead, 43-36, before baskets by the Cats' Eric Willhite and Danavan Hylton and a fast break by Francisco Acevedo cut that lead to 43-42 after three quarters. Kaiser took a six-point lead with under five minutes left (51-45). But Rogers hit an off-balance jumper, then a follow by Paxman and a pass from Rogers to a breaking Earl tied the game, 51-51. Redlands had a chance to win the game in the final 24 seconds. After a timeout, with the game tied Redlands took the ball out and Kaiser fouled the Terriers with three seconds left and miss by Paxman was followed by a missed putback from Earl.

A day after upsetting Fairfax and star Evan Burns, Santa Margarita's boys basketball team continued to roll Thursday at the Torrey Pines National Classic in San Diego. The Eagles, the top-ranked squad in Orange County, got 16 first-quarter points from Lenny Collins in a 62-42 victory against El Cajon Christian in a National Division quarterfinal game at Torrey Pines High. Christian (6-5), ranked fourth in San Diego, is led by Kansas-signee Moulaye Niang, a 6-foot-10 senior. Santa Margarita (13-0) plays the Carlsbad-Eisenhower winner in one semifinal tonight at 7:30 at Torrey Pines High. Collins, a senior guard bound for Cornell, finished with a game-high 23 points. Travis Smith, a senior bound for the University of San Diego, added 15 points and 11 rebounds for the Eagles, who led, 16-6, after the first quarter and by 25 points in the third. In Santa Margarita's 59-55 victory over Fairfax on Wednesday, Collins scored 15 of his 23 points in the fourth, helping the Eagles erase a four-point deficit. Smith had 17. Burns, a 6-7 senior who has committed to UCLA, had 15 points, but only two in the fourth quarter. Santa Margarita's starting unit, which doesn't feature a player taller than 6-4, gave away inches to Fairfax and against EC Christian in some matchups. But the Eagles keep doing the little things it takes to win, Smith said. Santa Margarita outrebounded EC Christian 27-18, for example. Santa Margarita opened an 11-0 lead against Christian in the first quarter. Collins had all 11 points. Niang, who finished with 15 points, went to the bench with his second foul with 5:34 left in the first quarter and wasn't a factor until the Eagles were up double-digits in the fourth.
