Trojans defeat Wolfpack, plus other CIF news

Things were looking up for the Claremont High School varsity boys basketball team against La Verne Lutheran in last night's CIF Southern Section Division 3AA when the Pack jumped out to an 8-2 lead in the game's opening minutes.

But the Trojans implemented a press that led to a 19-0 run for La Verne Lutheran from the 2nd quarter into the early part of the 2nd half, eventually resulting in a La Verne Lutheran 66-48 win. Jackson Reeder led CHS with 10 points and Kyle Maloof contributed 9 points and 6 rebounds.

In other CIF action on Wednesday, St. Bernard defeated Webb in a Division 5A Boys Basketball first round matchup, 83-52. The Webb varsity boys soccer team was also eliminated from the playoffs after suffering a 5-0 loss to Tahquitz in a Division 6 wild card match.
