2020-21 Girls Weeks 9-10: Third Time Charm for Cathedral

Cathedral upheld the honor of No. 1 seeds and defeated No. 3 Bonita Vista, 55-49, in the Open Division and erased the memory of two losses to the Barons in the regular season.

It was not a happy ride for several of the favored seeds in the girls’ San Diego Section playoffs..

Nine upsets, or surprises, took place in the semifinals and championships.

Three favorites lost in the title game.

No. 4 El Camino defeated No. 2 Westview, 66-59, in Division 1.  No. 4 San Dieguito outlasted No. 3 Eastlake, 48-45, in D-II, and No. 2 St. Joseph defeated Fallbrook, 45-44, in D-III.

In all there were reversals of so-called form in 12 of the 73 games, 16.4 percent.
