Boys Basketball:
Glendora didn’t finish off their second round victory as smoothly as they would have liked, but the bottom like is definitely ‘scoreboard.’
An athletic Oak Hills program put up a furious charge late, but the Tartans hit their free-throws and played solid defense down the stretch to claim a 54-51 victory over the Bulldogs.
Luke Jacobson stepped up with 24 points and eight rebounds.
Jacobson was 10-of-12 from the field.
Noah Smith added 12 points, six assists and four rebounds.
Smith also ran the offense efficiently, and hit a key three-pointer and his free throws.
Austin Clark contributed 10 points, six assists four rebounds and his senior leadership to the GHS win.
Braydon Wooldridge, who played a nearly three-hour baseball game in Dan Henley’s final game as Tartans’ coach, wandered over to the basketball gym and still provided five points, three assists and two rebounds despite being thoroughly fatigued.
Ayden Green had three points and three rebounds.
Jack Anderson finished with three rebounds, an assist and played a key role on defense.
Michael Miller paced Oak Hills with 18 points and Zamarre Glaude finished with 11 points for the Bulldogs.
Up next: Glendora will travel to Palm Desert on Tuesday in the CIF-SS Division 3A quarterfinal round.
The Aztecs (19-3) defeated Buena, 72-50, in their second-round game.
