HIGHLIGHTS

* Vince Ortiz of Acton Vasquez pitched a no-hitter -- the fourth this season by the Mustangs (8-0) -- in a 12-0 victory over Gardena Masada.

* Angel Sanchez had two two-run home runs and a two-run triple in West Covina’s 10-3 victory over La Puente Nogales.

HEROICS

* Nick Tanos’ two-out, two-run home run in the eighth inning gave Cypress a 6-5 victory over Placentia Valencia.

* Outfielder Efrain Cervantes’ run-scoring double in the bottom of the eighth inning lifted Lake Balboa Birmingham over Reseda Cleveland, 2-1.

ON DECK

* Bragging rights in the West Valley League -- and the City Section -- are at stake twice: Woodland Hills El Camino Real is at Chatsworth today, with a rematch Thursday at El Camino Real.

* Jo Jo Reyes transferred from Riverside Arlington to Riverside Poly during the off-season.... Was it worth it? The ranked rivals play an Ivy League game Tuesday at Poly.
