Boys Basketball:
If Pasadena wanted to win back an outright Pacific League championship, they’d need a victory over rival Muir in the regular season finale.
And the Bulldogs got it, but it did not come easily.
PHS would survive in a 71-65 triple-overtime thriller at Pasadena High.
Muir got a game-high 34 points from Saadiq Moore, including three 3-pointers.
Moore tallied 10 rebounds, three assists and two blocked shots.
Fidel Cabrera led the Bulldogs with 20 points, five rebounds, five assists and three steals.
Desmond Every chipped in with 15 points, three rebounds and three assists.
Brandon Hardy had 11 points, 10 rebounds, six assists and two steals for the Mustangs, and Joshua Andrews contributed seven points and four rebounds.
Jason Guyton hit four 3’s for PHS and scored 13 points.
Guyton also had nine rebounds, six steals and six blocked shots.
Casey Barrett had six points in the win.

Baseball: I’ll start by saying that Chino Hills absolutely earned its 4-3 Baseline League victory over their visitors from Los Osos. The Grizzlies had their chances on Wednesday, they made some mistakes on defense, and they came up short. The Huskies should be commended for securing the No. 3 seed out of the very tough […]

Baseball: In yet another recurring plot twist, Damien regained control of the Baseline League penthouse on Wednesday. After the Spartans 6-4 victory over Etiwanda, and with Chino Hills defeating Los Osos, 4-3, DHS enters the final game of the 2024 regular season with a one-half game lead over the second-place Grizzlies.
