El Cajon Valley refuses to roll over
Rally from 20 down to shock Granite Hills

EL CAJON (1-6-09) — El Cajon Valley High already
endured one spanking at the hands of Granite Hills,
its Madison Avenue neighborhood rival, just a week ago.
And now they were down by a whooping 29-9 count with
just a minute left in the first half during Monday's
(Jan. 5) Grossmont North-South Tournament opener.
This one was going to be even uglier than before.
"It was embarrassing," admitted Braves coach
JIM GLEBOFF, who has seen his share on both sides of
blowouts in a distinguished career. "But it was
a weird game, too -- I couldn't really explain it."
However, El Cajon Valley did something rarely seen.
Not only did they rally to take a late lead, they also
held on when RAYLONDO FORD sank a game-winning foul
shot with no time remaining to take a surprising 49-48
triumph.

PITTSBURG (1-1-09) — When RYAN KINSER scheduled
his West Hills Wolf Pack in the 144-team West Coast
Jamboree, he was looking for some different competition.
It proved to be a sound move. Not only did the Wolf
Pack (13-2) face opponents that it had never seen in
its school history, West Hills captured the 16-team
Sapphire Division championship. The Wolf Pack completed
a 4-game sweep by knocking off Bear River of Grass Valley
54-40 in Wednesday’s (Dec. 31) title game.
