Girls Basketball:
Claremont threw a monkey wrench into the Palomares League title chase.
Last week, the Wolfpack handed Glendora its first league loss (55-47) on Wednesday.
On Monday, Claremont knocked Bonita out of a first-place tie with GHS by edging the Bearcats, 46-42.
With a single game remaining, GHS leads BHS and CHS by one game, and they travel to Bonita on Wednesday in the regular season finale.
A Bearcats win would mean a three-way share of the Palomares championship with Glendora and Claremont.
CHS outscored BHS in each of the first three quarters, and they took a 32-23 lead into the fourth period.
Bonita went on a 19-14 run in the fourth, but they came up just short.
Jessica Lopez led Claremont with 13 points, including four 3-pointers.
Khrysma Johnson and Mia Montejo contributed nine points apiece for the Wolfpack.
Montejo connected on three 3-pointers, and Johnson had one.
Serenity Henderson had a game-high 14 points for Bonita.
Lexi Mercado hit three 3’s and finished with 11 points.
Brooke Van Duyne had eight points, and Jordy DeMott chipped in with six.
