Girls Basketball:
San Dimas won a share of their first Valle Vista League championship since 2006.
The Saints needed and got a victory in the regular season finale at Diamond Ranch.
SDHS defeated the Panthers, 65-36, on Thursday night.
San Dimas and Covina both finished VVL play with identical 8-2 records, and the Colts and Saints split their two-game series last week.
Both programs held serve at home and collected four-point victories over the other.
But back to Thursday.
Priscilla Romero had 15 points, six assists, four rebounds and three steals.
Allison McGill contributed 13 points, three rebounds, two assists and a pair of steals.
Janessa Rodriguez finished with 12 points, 14 rebounds, two steals and two assists.

San Dimas coach, Gary Jackson: “This has been the most difficult year coaching in all my years at San Dimas. With all the uncertainty daily, I’m just so proud of the resilience of the girls. The Covid bug hit us multiple times and they never quit. I’m so proud to be their coach! First league championship since 2006 and they deserve it.”
