GIRLS’ BASKETBALL ROUNDUP : Crenshaw’s Grice Silences Injury-Plagued Dorsey
The rematch was more of a grudge match, but the result was the same as the Crenshaw High girls’ basketball team defeated Dorsey, 54-39, in a Southern Pacific Conference game Friday.
Crenshaw beat Dorsey, 52-48, in the championship of the Gold Coast Classic in Oxnard in December.
“They’ve been talking a lot of stuff and we wanted to hush their mouth,†said Crenshaw guard Cathleen Grice. “I know I am a good ballplayer and none of their players can beat me one-on-one.â€
Grice had 14 points and eight steals for Crenshaw, which improved to 5-0 in conference play. Kristi Lattin and Kim House each added 12 points.
Tamu Agiza finished with a game-high 25 points for Dorsey, which was playing without center Donna Lincoln who sprained an ankle in a 47-43 victory over Narbonne on Wednesday. Dorsey lost another starter, Flo O’Neal, to a knee injury in the second quarter.
