Boys Basketball:
Glendora had to wait 348 days for another shot at Bonita.
In the 2023-24 regular season finale, the Bearcats erased a 14-point deficit with less than three minutes to play in regulation, and they went on to stun Glendora, 68-62, in overtime.
The loss cost the Tartans the Palomares League championship and the opportunity to host a first-round playoff game.
A week later, Glendora was bounced, 61-54, at Temescal Canyon in the first round of the CIF-SS Division 2A playoffs.
Fast forward to Tuesday, January the 14th of 2025, and GHS possessed another double-digit lead in the second half.
This time around, however, the Tartans weren’t going to fold.
Glendora would secure a 67-56 victory at Bonita to extend their current win streak to 17 games.
Bonita had a 10-6 advantage in 3-pointers.
It also kept the Tartans in a two-way tie atop the Palomares League standings with Walnut.
Max Hilgenfeldt scored a game-high 22 points, including three 3-pointers, two rebounds and a pair of assists.
Colton Gray chipped in with 21 points, eight rebounds and two assists.
Hunter Smith and Beau Rudometkin led the BHS offense with 15 points each.
Rudometkin hit three 3-pointers, while Smith hit two shots beyond the 3-point arc.
Tanner Grable provided nine points and six rebounds, and Vincent Montalbo contributed six points and two rebounds.
