Girls Basketball:
Rio Hondo Prep is closing out the 2022-23 regular season in impressive form.
In fact, if the Kares defeat Chadwick in the season finale and undefeated Flintridge Prep sweeps Providence, RHP would tie the Pioneers for second place.
But back to Tuesday.
Rio Hondo Prep got six 3-pointers and 22 points from senior Sophia Tarampi, and the Kares picked up a 56-48 victory over visiting Poly.
RHP is now 18-5 overall and 8-3 in league.
Reagan Johnson chipped in with 11 points and Tara Riley had 10 in the win.
Poly’s Paige Lim had a monster game.
Lim connected on seven 3-pointers and led all scorers with 25 points.
Sammie Yen contributed 14 for the Panthers.
Up next: RHP closes out the regular season on Thursday at Chadwick.
