Boys Basketball: Of Damien’s 27 victories in the 2021-22 season, this had to be the most consequential and impressive. The Spartans trailed by 20 points in the second quarter at Crean Lutheran.

Boys Soccer: Thanks to a ludicrous Mission Valley League rule about how a tiebreaker is settled, Marshall Fundamental had to play a wild-card game on Wednesday.

Boys Soccer: Marshall Fundamental closed out the regular season on Thursday with a 3-2 victory over visiting Mountain View. The win improves the Eagles to 10-1-1 in MVL games.

Photos by Carlo Montalbo Boys Basketball: After Thursday’s 76-59 victory over visiting Claremont, Glendora needs just a Friday victory at CHS to catch Ayala for second place in the Palomares League.
