2021-22 Girls & Boys Week 15-A: Southern California Championship Pairings

Win Tuesday evening and play a state championship game in Sacramento on Friday.

That is the goal this week for the three remaining girls and boys basketball teams from the San Diego Section.

Victory Christian, formerly Lutheran, located in Chula Vista, was coached until mid-season this year by Sa’de Wiley-Greenwood, a legendary high school player at Lynwood, where she led her team to a 33-0 in 2002 and was Cal-Hi Sports‘ state player of the year.

FALCONS COULD SET HISTORY

Scripps Ranch will attempt to win a second Southern California championship in the same school year, never accomplished by a San Diego Section squad.

The Falcons defeated Santa Clara Wilcox, 31-28, for the state Division II-A championship in 2021 after winning the Southern California title, 45-38 over Santa Clarita Valencia.
