     The SCCLC Varsity boys Eagles dominated the court on Friday in the season's final game against the International Griffins. This victory marked the third consecutive undefeated season for the Eagles. The scoring started off slow with the first basket being scored after 3:30 of play. The Griffins took the ball down the court and tied the game up at 2-2 on the next possession, showing that they were going to put up a fight.
 The first quarter included many turnovers, and the score ended at 11-6.
     The second quarter was kicked off with an acrobatic layup by Eagle Caleb Ropp. An Eagle scoring spree left the Griffins in the dust, as the free throws and layups added up to give th Eagles a 20-6 lead. However, the Griffins were able to tally 6 more points before the end of the half, which ended at 24-12 with the Eagles on top.
     The Eagles came out strong in the third quarter, dominating the rebounds and going on another scoring streak. The gap between the two teams widened, and when the dust had cleared the Eagles were up 36-12. The Eagles continued to dominate, mostly thanks to seniors Caleb Ropp and Jesse Hallock. The Griffins scored a few more points, but they could not keep up with the energetic Eagles. The third quarter ended with a score of 41-16.

     An enthusiastic crowd kept the game interesting heading into the fourth and final quarter. The Eagles continued to dominate on the court, and soon they had a 48-18 lead. The crowd continued to cheer and chant, and they even influenced the Eagle coach to play a few of the players who had been on the bench for the entire time. The Griffins were not absent from the game as they were able to score 5 baskets in the fourth quarter to bring their score up to 26. With 2 seconds left on the clock, the Eagles were awarded 2 free throws, and the eager SCCLC students rushed to the sides of the court, cheering the Eagles on. The crowd erupted in cheers as the final free throw was made, and the students rushed onto the court as the buzzer sounded, with the Eagles winning 56-26. After the trophies and medals were given out and the water cooler was dumped on Eagle coach Keith Wilcke, the Eagles gathered together and chanted their famous "Ooga    
 chaka" chant one more time. 

    Caleb Ropp was the leading scorer with 22 points for the Eagles, and Jesse Hallock followed with 14 points. Cesar Flores and Andre Larsen also made big contributions for their team. The Griffins leading scorer scored 10 out of their 26 points. The conclusion of this season means that 4 of the 5 Eagle starters will be graduating, and this should definitely lead to an exciting basketball season next year as the competition is evened out between the schools.

     The Cooperative High School girl basketball team won another trophy today, adding another victory to a fantastic winning streak spanning over two years. The Eagles, however, did not let the Jaguars claim their prize without fierce resistance. From the very beginning the game was a fast paced, intense battle that contained a large number of fouls, free throws, and turnovers. Neither team could establish a noteworthy lead in the first half, which ended with 10 – 10 tie score. The Eagles managed to get ahead for a short time at the start of the third quarter before the Cooperative girls rallied to gain the lead again. For the remainder of the game the Jaguars managed to hold a slim lead over the Eagles, before a few well placed baskets in the final minutes put the nails in the coffin for the SCCLC. The final score was 24 – 19, representing a well played match that both teams could be proud of.

Varsity Consolation Games

Jaguars Upset Knights to Take Third, 43-34
By David Boldt    
     The Cooperative boys saved their best game of the season for the end, and concluded the playoff tournament with a 43-34 win over Cambridge in the consolation game.
     The Knights were playing without their lone senior and best rebounder, Fabricio Subirana, and clearly missed him, but the story of the game was the Jaguars’ improvement on both offense and defense. Cambridge had won both regular season meetings between the two teams.
      The two teams played very evenly through the first half, taking turns at making offensive spurts. Cooperative got off to the quicker start, leading 6-2 early in the first quarter, but Cambridge came back and had the lead 13-11 by the end of the quarter.
    The lead then see-sawed back and forth through the second quarter, and the two teams were tied 23-23 just before the end of the half at which point Nicolas Suarez hit a three-pointer to put the Jaguars ahead 26-23 at the intermission.
     The Knights seemed to have the momentum as the second half opened a 31-26 lead before the Jaguars could get started. That didn’t last, however. Cooperative resurged, taking the lead back at 32-31 as the Knights seemed to run out of gas. By the end of the third quarter the Jaguars had taken charge, 39-33.
     In fact both teams seemed somewhat deflated by their earlier efforts in the fourth quarter, but the Jaguars had the better of things, outscoring Cambridge in the final stanza 4-1.
     For Jaguars, Suarez had 13, 12 of them in the first half. Andres Shin had ten; Josue Abuawad and  Jose Mozza had nine, and Luis Peredo two.   
    Marcio Baio had ten for Cambridge; Gustavo Roca had seven; Gabriel Alonso and Juan Carlos Paniagua six each; Andre Hurtado three; and Alex Legrain two.     

Knight Girls Blank Griffins 18-0
By David Boldt
    The Cambridge girls varsity basketball team pitched a shutout against International, winning the consolation game for third place 18-0 in a contest played Friday.
    The Griffins were victimized by both the Lady Knights’ ferocious defense and terrible luck shooting. Any shot that could have bounced in or out bounced out.
     The Knights, for their part, were not playing at their peak. They were clearly showing the effects of a long week of basketball. Two of their starters had played two entire junior varsity games this week and a varsity semifinal in which Cambridge was defeated, but scored 32 points, the team’s high for the season.
     The Knights led 5-0 at the end of the first quarter and 7-0 at the half.
     The game was a fitting finale for senior Maira Lino, who has consistently been among the top scorers in the League and has started for Cambridge since she was in the ninth. She was one of the best three-point shooters in the history of the League, and the last remaining player from Cambridge’s championship years in 2007 and 2008.
    Lino scored ten of Cambridge’s points, including a final three-pointer. Rene Barriga had four points for Cambridge, while Mako Ueno and Nicole Fermin had two points each.

JV Basketball Finals

Jaguar Boys Easily Win JV Championship, 29-12
        The Cooperative Jaguars JV boys basketball team won a lopsided match against the Cambridge Knights on Thursday. The Jaguars' strong defense kept the Knights' scoring attempts to a minimum in the first quarter as the Jaguars pulled ahead 8-1. The Jaguars did a great job of taking their time and waiting for scoring opportunities, while the Knights tried many times to force the ball into the hoop. The cheering section was very loud and enthusiastic, exploding every time a basket was scored. 
        The second quarter started with an acrobatic Jaguar basket, and it was visible that both teams were playing more intensely. The Knights brought the ball up the court again and again, but they seemed to be missing every shot they took. The Jaguars, in contrast, took fewer shots but scored more points as they took advantage of almost every good opportunity. The score grew more and more lopsided until it stood at 18-2 at the halftime buzzer. 
        Turnovers were a problem in the third quarter as both teams continually lost control of the ball. The Knights seized the opportunity on one of these turnovers, stealing the ball and scoring a layup. Another Cambridge basket brought the score to 18-6. The Jaguars then took control once again, scoring 3 more baskets before the end of the third quarter, which ended with a score of 25-8.
        The fourth quarter started off quickly with each team scoring baskets. After two Cambridge free throws, the score reached 27-12. The score stayed at 27-12 for about 6 minutes as both teams continually missed baskets and turned the ball over. The Jaguars scored 2 more points with 25 seconds left in the game, and as the final buzzer sounded, they rushed to the side of the court, picked up the water cooler, and dumped its contents on their coach's head, celebrating their 29-12 championship victory.


Eagles Defeat Knights and Win First Place, 22-14
By Jesse Mann, SCCLC

The Junior Varsity girls basketball season concluded today in what one spectator called "the most exciting JV girls basketball game of the entire season." In an electric atmosphere full of screaming fans and pounding drums, the Eagles managed to overcome the Knights and finish with an eight point lead 22 – 14. The competition followed the pattern of earlier games, with low shooting accuracy and an abundance of fouls on both sides. After enjoying a two point lead in the first quarter, Cambridge fell four points behind after the Eagles late in the first half. An Eagle technical foul then provided the Knights with six free throw opportunities, giving Cambridge a good chance to tie the score. All six shots missed the mark, characterizing the poor free throw accuracy that plagued both teams. The Eagles managed to hold on to their slim lead throughout a second half full of fouls, turnovers, and timeouts. A final scoring streak in the dying seconds awarded the Eagles an eight point lead over Cambridge to claim the trophy.

Eagles Late Surge Brings Victory Over Griffins, 29-24
By David Boldt

    The Christian Learning boys junior varsity won third place in the consolation game against International Thursday 29-24 in a contest that was nip-and-tuck until the very end.
     International had the early advantage, taking a one-point lead in the first quarter, 6-5. The Griffins hung onto that slim margin through the first half, and were ahead 14-13 at the intermission.
     The Eagles took over the lead in the third quarter, 17-16, and  then turned on the afterburners in the final stanza, outscoring International 12-8 to win the game by five points.
     Luke Phillips was the key man for the Eagles in the closing surge, scoring eight of the Eagle points.
     Phillips was the high scorer for the Eagles for the day, finishing with 16 points. Andre Cruz had five,  Sammy Frith four, Nathan Brown three, and Kier Pederson one.
     Danny Hanley scored 16 for the Griffins, German Ferraris had four, while Cristian Jorge and Jaime Barrenechea each had two.

Griffins Win Epic Defensive Battle, 6-3
By David Boldt
     The International girls junior varsity basketball team won an amazing defensive battle against Cooperative 6-3 in the consolation game for third place played Thursday in the Christian Learning gym.
     The outcome sent sports historians scurrying to learn if it was the lowest scoring basketball game in League, or possibly Bolivian history. Surely it at least tied for the lowest half-time score. At the half the two teams were deadlocked 0-0.
   Both squads, now apparently fully warmed up, managed baskets in the third quarter, but still the scoring could not be described as prolific. Victoria Roempler tallied a field goal for International, and Jessica Maureria sank a free throw for the Junior Jaguars.
    In the fourth quarter Roempler got International's third point on a foul shot, but Maureira went on what was, relatively speaking, a scoring rampage for the Jaguars, tossing in five points on two field goals and a free throw, making the final score 6-3 Jaguars.

Varsity Boys Semifinals

Eagles Cruise Past Jaguars 49-24
        The SCCLC Eagles overpowered the Cooperative Jaguars on Thursday in a semifinal basketball game played at the Eagle gym on Tuesday. Although there was some sloppy playing by both teams, the Eagles had an obvious edge over the Jaguars throughout the game. This was evident as the Eagles slowly started to pull away, gradually building up a lead. In response, the Jaguars tried some new strategies, including full-court passes and attempted breakaways. These changes did not help the Jaguars much as the Eagles took a 27-9 lead by halftime. 
        The Eagles shot out into the third quarter with 8 unanswered points before the Jaguars scored a few baskets of their own. The third quarter ended with a score of 41-15. In the fourth quarter, the Jaguars narrowly outscored the Eagles 9-8, but the Eagles remained on top, winning with a score of 49-24.


Griffins Upset Knights 32-27
By David Boldt

     The International boys varsity basketball team fought its way into the championship round with an upset 32-27 victory over Cambridge in one of the hardest-fought and closely contested games of the season.
     Cambridge was heavily favored based on season records. The Knights were 4-2 on the season and the Griffins 1-5. Cambridge had won both regular season contests between the two teams.
     Nevertheless, it looked for a while as if the pumped up Griffin team was going to win the game in a romp. 
     The Griffins led 10-6 at the end of the first quarter, which featured two three-point shots by the Griffins, one by Francisco Gonzales to start the Griffin scoring and the other by Juan Sebastian Justiniano.
     International continued to have the hot shooting hand in the second period during which they extended their lead to 22-8, getting two three-pointers from Maykol Villacencio.
    Somewhat oddly, the Griffins seemed to have less trouble hitting the basket in the ill-lit, shadow-filled Cambridge gym where one would think the Knights would have a home team advantage.
    However, this problem has plagued the team before in key games. In three of the past four years the Knight boys have finished the regular season firmly in second place, only to be beaten in the semifinals by a team with a worse record. International knocked the Knights out two years ago as well. All three of Cambridge´s losing semifinal contests were played in their home gym.
    The halftime margin would have been even wider if Knight Marcio Baio hadn’t blocked a breakaway lay-up toward the end of the half.
      However, Baio injured his ankle on the play and had to sit out the rest of the game, which brought into sharp relief Cambridge’s lack of bench strength. Baio’s replacement was seventh-grader Masa Ueno, a skilled player, but a head shorter than any other player on the court.
        Despite these ominous occurrences,   the Knights began a valiant comeback effort as the second half began. The major weapon for Cambridge was driving lay-ups by ninth-grade guard Andres Hurtado, who scored three baskets as Cambridge cut the Griffin lead to four points, 28-24, at the end of the third quarter.
      On defense Cambridge was now challenging every Griffin shot. Much of the quarter consisted of the two teams racing up and down the court in fast and furious fashion.
       Both teams seemed to be running out of oxygen in the fourth quarter. Andres Hurtado made a foul shot and another driving lay-up for Cambridge, while Gary Suarez answered with a basket for International, which made it a three-point game, 30-27, with five and a half minutes to go.
      And there the score stuck, despite numerous nearly successful efforts by both teams to put the ball in the hoop. In the closing minutes Cambridge tried to set up for a three-pointer to tie the game, but the Griffin defense was so energized that Cambridge got off only one shot from outside the three-point line. It was launched by Hurtado and narrowly missed. Cambridge did not make any three-point shots in the game, while International had four.
      In the closing seconds of the game the Griffins finally worked the ball through Cambridge’s full-court press and delivered it to Santiago Maldonado who sank the ball from right under the Cambridge basket to eliminate all hope for Cambridge – and make the final score 32-27.
     For the Griffins, six different players scored. Justiniano tallied 9. Maldonado and Villavencio had six, Felipe Molina and Suarez had four, and Gonzales three.
     Cambridge’s  Hurtado was the game’s high scorer with 16 points. Gabriel Alonso had six, Juan Carlos Paniagua three, and Fabricio Subirana two.   

Varsity Girls Semifinals

Eagles Advance to Finals with 52-32 Win Over Knights


        The SCCLC Eagles girls varsity basketball team took over after a slow start against the Cambridge Knights on Tuesday. Soon into the first quarter, the score was tied at 6-6. The Eagles then shot ahead with 9 more points before the end of the quarter, which ended with the score at 15-6. The Eagles continued their scoring streak into the second quarter until the Knights were able to score again and bring the score to 19-8. The game went on with the Eagles continuing to widen their lead by taking advantage of the numerous free throws they were awarded. The first half ended at 30-14 with the Eagles still ahead.
        The second half went on in a similar manner with the score widening between the two teams. Soon the Knights were behind 44-19 at the end of the 3rd quarter. The Knights finally started playing more aggressively in the final quarter. They ended up scoring 13 points while holding the Eagles to 8, but the Eagles' lead was far too great for them to overcome. The Eagles won with a final score of 52-32.


Lady Jaguars Breeze Into Finals, 53-10
By Sofia Sotelo

     The Cooperative girls basketball team continued its undefeated streak, which now extends over two seasons, with a 53-10 semifinal victory over International in the Jaguars gym Tuesday.
     The Jaguars will play Christian Learning, the only team to come close to beating them this season, in the championship game Friday.
      The Jaguars used tight man-to-man defense for the first two quarters,  and scored 27 points on offense by halftime, while the Griffins scored only three in the first half, one layup and af oul point by Camila Johnson. Several fouls were made by Griffin defenders, giving Jaguar Ana Paula Peredo the chance to sink g three foul points in a row. 
     In the third quarter, SCCS started playing their subs and using a more relaxed zone defense, but still dominated the game. By the end of the third quarteris quarter, the score was 36 to 9.
     In the last quarter the Griffins scored only one point and the Jaguars scored 15, their highest quarterly total for the game, which included two three-pointers by Sofia Sotelo. 
     Carla Limpias was the high scorer with 16 points, followed by fellow forward Ana Paula Peredo with 13. Sofia Sotelo and Giovanna Varalta, the Jaguar guards, had eight points each. Center Aldana Roda, the lone senior on the team, had six points, and Tania Landivar had two.

JV Boys Semifinals

Knights take early lead, beat Eagles 22-13
By David Boldt
    The Cambridge junior varsity boys basketball team jumped out to a fast start in scoring a decisive 22-13 victory over Christian Learning in a game played Monday afternoon in the Cambridge gym.
     The Junior Knights led 4-0 at the end of the first quarter, and lengthened that lead to 10-2 midway through the second quarter. The first half ended with the home team on top 14-6.
     Cambridge was able to both hit from the outside and penetrate the Eagles defense in the first half, with Daniel Kirigin and P. Vidal leading the offensive effort, aided by slick ball-handling by pint-sized guards Masa Ueno and Marco Antonio Ovando.
     Christian Learning stepped up its defense in the second half and held Cambridge scoreless for the first thirteen minutes of the third quarter, but could only cut the margin 14-9.  Andres Cruz hit on a long set shot for the Eagles, and Nathan Brown hit one of his foul shot opportunities.
     Vidal scored twice in quick succession for the Knights at the end of the quarter to move the Cambridge lead up to nine, at 18-9.
      The two teams battled each other evenly in the fourth quarter, each scoring four points. Cambridge scored on a slick, three-pass play, and on a steal and lay-up by Ueno. Nathan Brown and Luke Phillips made the two baskets for Christian Learning, Phillips scoring on an artistic outside jumper that swished in.
       For Cambridge Vidal tallied 10, Ueno six, Kirigin four, and Santiago Hurtado two.
       For Christian Learning, Phillips tallied six, Brown three, while Sammy Frith and Cruz had two each. 
         
Jaguars Defeat Griffins 38-17
        The Cooperative Jaguars JV boys basketball team continued their winning streak on Monday, defeating the International Griffins to advance into the final on Thursday. Despite an impressive performance from Daniel Hanley, who scored the majority of the Griffin points, the Jaguars were still able to win the game with a convincing score of 38-17.

Knights defeat Jaguars in Overtime 22-17
By David Boldt
     The Cambridge girls junior varsity basketball team advanced into the championship round Monday afternoon, but only after getting the scare of their young lives from a Cooperative squad in an overtime contest played at Cambridge.
     The Jaguars, who had won only one game previously, actually appeared to be on the road to an upset victory against the League-leading Knights until the very end of regulation time.
     At the end of a hard-fought first half in which neither team seemed to be able to find the scoring range, the Jaguarettes held a 7-4 lead, with all seven points scored by Giuliana Varalta. The Jaguars quickly widened that lead to 11-5 in the opening minutes of the second half on scores by Naomi Andrade and Cristiani Zurita.
      Cambridge rallied to tie the game at 12-12 on baskets by Mako Ueno, Nicole Fermin, and and Josefina Rodriguez, but Cooperative’s surged again to take a 17-14 lead.
      Zurita hit on a long set shot from the right side, then made a foul shot, and scored on a long driving lay-up. Fermin responded with a basket for Cambridge, but Cooperative seemed to be in the driver’s seat with only a few minutes to go.
       Cooperative was playing much better than in the past on both offense and defense, but also benefited from the fact that Cambridge was having a frigid day on offense, with several shots actually seeming to pop out of the basket, and with heart-stopping misses on several short range chances.
       But in the final minute Rodriguez hit a foul shot and Fermin swished in one of her patented pop-up lay-ups to tie the game at the end of regulation play 17-17.
      Several Cooperative players had either fouled out or were in danger of doing so at this point, and Cambridge was able to take charge in the overtime period, outscoring Cooperative 5-0.
       Ueno hit on a quick turn-around jumper,  then Fermin made a foul shot and closed out the the scoring by popping in another lay-up to make the final 22-17.
      For the Knights, Fermin had 14, Ueno five, and Rodriguez three.
      For the Jaguars, Varalta had eight, Zurita seven, and Andrade two.

Griffin Girls and Jaguar Boys Win Again
By David Boldt


     The International girls and Cooperative boys track teams overwhelmingly confirmed their dominance this season by winning the SCISL Championship Track Meet held Friday at Tahuichi Stadium.
     Those two squads had won the first (and only other) League track and field meet this year and were easily able to claim their respective  League championships by continuing their winning ways at the championship meet. The championship is determined by combining the scores from the two meets.  
     The Griffin girls had a combined point total of 223 points. The Christian Learning girls placed second with 191 points; Cooperative had 176. Cambridge tallied 67 points.
    The Jaguar boys had a combined 281 points. Christian Learning boys were second with 158. International boys was right behind them with 152; and Cambridge boys had 38.
     (The point totals posted earlier contained errors, most of which -- we hope -- have been corrected. The order of finish has not changed.) 
     Ultimately, each of the four schools in the League had something to feel good about.
     Cooperative and International had a championship trophy each.
     Christian Learning had two second place finishes – nothing to sneeze at – and also had the outstanding individual performer in Abby Phillips, who took gold medals in the high jump, long jump, 800 meters, and 400 meters, setting new League records in the 400 and high jump in the process.
     Even Cambridge, which finished fourth in both boys and girls competitions, had reason to feel that it was in resurgent phase. The Knights were not contenders for the championship because they had been unable  to field a team for the first meet and so started the afternoon Friday with zero points.
     However, newly appointed athletic director Eduardo “Presi” de la Riva, who had been athletic director at both International and Cambridge in previous season before taking a job for a while in private industry, had clearly rallied his troops. The Knights, who have a distinguished record in other sports but have traditionally been weak in track and field, fielded a full team for this meet.
     And when the Cambridge 4 x 400 relay team of Josefina Rodriguez, Maira Lino, Nadia Rocco, and Lucia Candia led from start to finish to take the gold medals in the penultimate race of the day, it represented the first time that Cambridge had won a relay race in League history. The Knights could also boast the most vociferous cheering section.
     But there was plenty of glory to spread around at the somewhat chaotic meet, which was recurrently interrupted by rain, and had to compete with a small boys soccer contest that was taking place in the infield of the stadium. As a result of the soccer game, the high jump events were forced into the shadowy semi-indoor confines of the municipal gym underneath the Stadium’s south side. The soccer game stopped play each time there was a race in progress.
     New League records were set in six events. Phillips took 0.6 of second off her own record in the 400 with a clocking of 1:03 flat. In the high jump she added five centimeters to the record she had held jointly with several others by leaping 1.45 meters.
      In the boys 400 meters Santiago Maclean of International took almost exactly a second off the record with a time of :55.42.                        
      In the girls 1500 junior Sofia Sotelo of Cooperative was supposedly running  “under wraps,” as they say in horse racing, because of knee problems. She had said she would be running just to finish first, and not to once again lower her League record, which she has done in each of the past several years. But on the final lap she seemed to get the bit in her teeth (again as they say in horse racing) and chopped over two seconds off her record with a time of 5:33.25.
     In girls’ discus Christian Learning’s Tabitha Malloy’s throw of 21.65 was a millimeter longer than the record set last year by Beatriz Nallar of International.
     Natalia Avila of International gave a similar shaving to the record in the girls 200 meters, nicking .01 of a second off the record set by Fabiana Murillo of International in 2006. This was the oldest record on the books.
    Malloy, who also won the girls shotput, was one of three double gold medal winners.  Juan Alfredo Abuawad of Cooperative matched her feat by taking the boys discus and shotput. Renzo Pinto of Cooperative dominated the sprints, winning the 100- and 200-meter dashes. Abby Phillips, as previously stated, won four gold medals.


List of results by event:
