Girls Volleyball:
La Salle had a significant and satisfying weekend.
The Lancers persevered through a two-day event that included Chaminade, the No. 1 ranked program in CIF-SS Division 4, and claimed the Crescenta Valley Tournament title.
La Salle won two (Burbank & Eagle Rock) of their three matches on Friday, and the lone setback being a three-set loss to Venice.

Baseball: There’s a reason Bonita’s closing in on a third consecutive Palomares League championship. And it’s called pitching.
