MEN'S BASKETBALL 3-1 IN FIRST WEEK OF PLAY

Panther basketball took to the court to open the 2009-10 season last week, participating in the San Diego City Tournament and then traveling to LA Harbor. At San Diego, the Panthers went 2-1, beating both Palomar and Cypress befor falling to Citrus 88-87. At Harbor, the consistent Chaffey shooters had trouble finding their range in this game. The CHP was 5-30 from the three point line and both teams were a combined 8-42 from behind the arc. Fortunately the Panthers big men came to play. Freshmen Ikea Brown and Mo Hughley both recorded double-doubles in points and rebounds and Trone Jackson scored 13 pts and added 9 assists to his state leading assist total. The CHP led 36-27 at the half. LA Harbor tied the game at 49 with 10 minutes to play. The game was a hard fought battle with Chaffey finishing the game on an 11 to 1 run to close out the victory. The Chaffey Panthers are now 3-1 on the season. The team is ranked #17 in the state and will take on 4-0 #12 Mt. San Antonio College in the Citrus Tournament on Friday, Nov. 27th at 7:00 pm.
