The Cate boys basketball team allowed just 12 points through three quarters Wednesday night on its way to a 61-23 road victory over Laguna Blanca.
Parker May and A.J. Oke were all over Laguna’s Devin Hernandez throughout the game, and coach Andy Gil said his team shared the ball on offense as well as they had all season. It was the second time this season that every player who dressed for Cate recorded a point.
Senior Ethan Ng led all scorers with 18 and Tyler Tom had 11.
St. Bonaventure 73, Bishop Diego 54
A second-half rally by Bishop Diego drew them within nine points in the fourth quarter, but the Seraphs responded with a 10-0 run on their way to a 19-point win Wednesday night.
St. Bonaventure jumped ahead 16-8 in the first quarter and never looked back. Riles Neff led all scorers with 27 points for the Seraphs, while Tyler Williams led Bishop with 14 points.

Coach Sergio Castaneda credited Hajducko for her movement without the ball and her ability to create for her teammates, while Mead helped keep the offense flowing with great communication.
