Boys Basketball: Fox does it all as Sacred Heart Cathedral cruises to beat Bellarmine
By Jeremy Balan
It wasn’t a banner night offensively for most on the floor at Sacred Heart Cathedral on Saturday night.
That is, except for standout Sacred Heart forward Joshua Fox.
Fox was the only player on either team to score in double figures, with a game-high 22 points and 13 rebounds, as the Irish cruised to a 58-43 West Catholic Athletic League win over visiting Bellarmine.
Girls Basketball: Convent holds off International in exciting finish
By Josh Levine
After missing all 15 of its shots from the field in the first quarter, it appeared as if International High School would be blown out by visiting Convent on Saturday night.
Convent had a 15-2 lead after the first quarter, but the Jaguars came all the way back and sophomore Kassie Encinas hit a shot with 1:25 remaining in the fourth quarter to put the International up 48-47.
With only 13 seconds left, Convent’s Jaime Hum-Nishikado hit a running bank shot to take back the lead for good and the Cubs held on for a 49-48 non-league win.

Girls Basketball: Lowell pulls away with third-quarter run to take down Washington
By Josh Levine
If Friday night was a preview of the Academic Athletic Association girls basketball championship game, then Lowell High School should feel even better about its 47-35 win over rival Washington at Kezar Pavilion.
Both teams came into the game undefeated in AAA play and atop their respective divisions and are the favorites to reach the championship game for the second-consecutive year.
Girls Basketball: St. Ignatius locks down Mitty’s top players to avenge first WCAL loss
By Jeremy Balan
Seemingly overmatched physically at every position, it was no surprise to many that St. Ignatius’ girls basketball team fell to Archbishop Mitty High School on the road to kick off the West Catholic Athletic League season.
The undersized Wildcats held serve on their home court Friday night, though, and it started on the defensive end.
The Wildcats held Mitty forwards Amanda Lovely and Courtney Lisowsky, both Division I recruits, to a combined nine points and handed the Monarchs their first WCAL loss in a 55-49 win.
