Girls Basketball:
Oh, so close.
Rio Hondo Prep came within a bucket of handing Flintridge Prep its first Prep League setback since January 6, 2016.
The hobbled Wolves (missing their second and third leading scorers) held on for a 53-52 road victory.
Flintridge Prep’s stud, Ashley Chea, continues to shine and finished with a game-high 32 points.
Kassidy Huie chipped in with 12 points in the win.
Elle Curtis led the RHP attack with 18 points.
Grace Pollock had 14 points for the Kares.
RHP got six points from Emma Carson and Reagan Johnson had five.
Up next: The Wolves will host Chadwick on Tuesday night.
And the Kares welcome Providence to their gym on Monday afternoon.
