Woodbridge back on top in PCL

Woodbridge’s girls basketball team earned a share of the Pacific Coast League crown, defeating Beckman, 60-33, Thursday night at Woodbridge.

Woodbridge, Beckman and Corona del Mar came into the game tied for first place.

The Warriors share the league title with Corona del Mar, which defeated Northwood, 52-49, on Thursday at Corona del Mar.
A coin flip will determine which team will be the No. 1 squad in terms of the CIF playoffs, according to Woodbridge coach Eric Bangs.

Woodbridge was determined to bring home the title. The Warriors had a streak of four consecutive league titles snapped last year.
Beckman (15-10, 7-3) was trying to win its first league title. But Woodbridge settled the issue early, jumping out to a 16-5 lead after one quarter.

Woodbridge led, 38-12, at halftime and was in command the rest of the way.

“It’s not like we didn’t think we could win it (the title) but having Bonnie (Sarchet) out early and Jasmine (Rachal) for 15 games (after returning from an injury), it was a battle,” Bangs said.
“Defensively, wow, 33 points, that’s pretty good. Give that to (assistant) coach Pete Belanto and his game plan. We actually did an even better job than the first time we played them.”
Woodbridge (19-7, 8-2) was led by Annika Walker, who had 19 points. Anjali Ghadiyaram and Rachal added 11 points each for the Warriors.

Beckman was led by Kiara Quinn with 10 points.
“This is a really nice win for the kids because we go as either the first or second rep,” Bangs said. “The accomplishment of bringing a title back after all the injuries ... it’s pretty rewarding.”
Woodbridge defeated Beckman, 67-45, on Jan. 23 and was determined to win again.

“I’m so glad we won the league championship,” Walker said. “It’s great to do it my senior year and go out with a bang. We all played really well. We come ready to play Beckman every time. It’s a game we know we have to come to play to win. We did so both times thankfully.”

Key road win for Woodbridge

BY TIM BURT / Staff Writer

Woodbridge’s girls basketball team has plenty of work to do before it can bring back the Pacific Coast League title to the school.

But the Warriors took a significant step toward that goal Tuesday night with a 40-37 PCL victory over Corona del Mar, a team that Woodbridge coach Eric Bangs called the clear favorite going into league play.

No. 10 Woodbridge (11-5, 2-0) held off a late comeback by the Sea Kings, who turned the ball over on their final possession and were unable to get a shot off in the game at CdM.

“To me, this is the most talented team in the league,” Woodbridge coach Eric Bangs said of CdM. “They (his team) did a good job to get the win. They were actually outrunning us, so if they’re a lot taller and they’re outrunning us, then we were in trouble.

“But I think what we did is we tried to play all 10 or 11 kids in the first half and then settle on seven or so in the second half. The kids that came in in the first half all did a nice job.”

Anjali Ghadiyaram led Woodbridge with 16 points. Annika Walker added 11 points for the Warriors.

Woodbridge, without a player taller than 5-foot-11, faced a significant height disadvantage trying to guard Corona del Mar’s 6-foot-4 Natalia Bruening, who had 12 points, and 6-foot-2 Krista Anderson, who was limited to 2 points.

“If you’re standing there under the basket, we have no chance,” Bangs said. “When the ball is outside, we got a chance because we can front and do some things. If we can get them to miss and get a defensive rebound, one shot and out, that would really be good.

“Let’s just say we used our guards to help out and until they (CdM) hit a couple shots outside at the end of the game, we will live with that, and not let (Krista) Anderson and (Natalia) Bruening hurt us inside. It’s a total team effort.”

Woodbridge led, 17-16, at halftime and had a 29-26 lead going into the final quarter.

The Warriors extended their lead to 8 points twice in the final quarter before CdM began forcing turnovers.

The Sea Kings cut the lead to 38-37 when Maria King made one of two free throws with 34 seconds.

Corona del Mar (11-6, 1-1) got the ball back after the missed free throw but was unable to convert. Ghadiyaram was fouled going for the rebound and sank two free throws with 9.3 seconds to clinch the victory.

“I have to hand it to Corona del Mar,” Bangs said. “They started trapping and getting tips. We didn’t take care of the ball very well, not by design. We were just hoping to cruise in for a 12-point win. Hopefully, we build a little character on that one.”
