In a rematch of a 2008 state quarterfinal, Fullerton again prevailed over Yuba, expanding a 3-point halftime lead and posting the 10-point win in one of the day’s featured games.
It was a tough, defensive and physical game, as the teams combined for 46 turnovers and 32 personal fouls. Fullerton used its depth – 15 players saw action and nine players scored for the Hornets – and a 30-22 rebounding edge to get the win.
Ctr Mike Cox, the only returning starter for the Hornets, had 8 pts, 4 rebs and 4 blocks in the win. SG Tre Brewer also had 8 pts, as did SF Tenacious Gibson, who came off the bench. SF Mitchell Barrett and SG Ahmaad Cook each had 6 pts as Fullerton’s balanced scoring proved to be the difference.
Yuba was led by returning all-state SG Tristan Wilson, who had 16 pts and 6 rebs in a very strong performance. But no other 49er scored more than PG Mayse Walker, who had 5 pts and 6 steals but also suffered 8 turnovers.
