The Hills team jumped out to a 42-19 first quarter lead before things evened out a bit. TOMMY RUTHERFORD of Grossmont captured game MVP honors for the Hills with a game high 28-points and 10-rebounds. Rutherford scored 14-points in the third quarter when the Valley team had actually closed all the way back to within five points before the Hills squad expanded their lead once again.

 

The West Hills Wolf Pack had quite a showing for the Hills team in their victory. MIGUEL NAVA threw down several dunks on the night and finished with 23-points, eight rebounds and four assists. BRYCE PARSONS had 16 points as well to go along with four rebounds and three assists and MARCO OVIES led all players with seven assists.
