CIF HS Games: Results & Details
From
Thursday 2/7/02 & Standings--(Feb. 8, 2002)
Ok, it's the next to the last day of regular season games. These are the results from the games played Thursday, February 7, 2002, gathered from reports sent to us from team representatives, coaches, players and parents, as well as what we've been able to gather from local newspapers and websites. If you know of a game that we missed, a score that is unreported, or some details that we're missing, send it in via e-mail.
We've also added updated league standings, which we believe are current for each league where shown as of Thursday's results (we've used the standings which were published by the LA Times as compiled by Eric Maddy, so whether they are correct or not is something that we just can't vouch for, but we'll take the Times' word for it). Hopefully, with league races coming down to the wire, and seedings and playoff pairings being determined this weekend, this will be useful to someone.....

Yeshiva scored first in overtime as Pollack hit a three to give the Panthers a 60-57 lead, but it would be the last score for the Panthers, as Abdul-Mansour came back with a layup followed by Gale blocking a three-point attempt by Adi Issacs with under 30 seconds to play. Yeshiva got the ball back on the inbounds and after a missed shot attempt, Gale got the defensive rebound, went the length of the court, waited until the clock ran down to under 11 seconds and drove into the lane, spun right and pulled up for the 10-foot jumper, giving Buckley the one point advantage.
