 Tonight, the boys basketball 2012 SCAL champion will be crowned as the high octane offense of Santa Cruz invades Aptos High School to take on the Mariners. It's the CTV Game of the Week and it starts now. Good evening and welcome to the nightcap of the 2012 SCAL League basketball championships as the boys of Aptos post the regular season champion, Santa Cruz Cardinal here on community television. Kurt Edwards, my name is Tim Swartz and as I mentioned just a second ago, both these teams love to run. They absolutely do and you know how do they get here? Well this is a really easy way to do it. They got here by running. Santa Cruz came out on top of St. Francis rather handily and they just ran St. Francis right off the courts. The Sharks were just too shorthanded against the line changes that the Cardinals can bring out of Aptos. They had to go through Soquel and that wasn't quite so easy. Coming down to the last 30 seconds, Soquel has some pretty good looks at the bucket, didn't come on top. Aptos is in but yeah, you're going to see a NASCAR race out here in a couple of minutes. These two teams that do like to run when you have a game between two teams that put points on the board, what do you think is maybe the biggest thing that's going to separate these two? Maybe turnover margin? Turnover margin? Free throws. More than anything else, folks. It's going to be free throws and control of the offensive glass. Those are a couple of things that I see are going right in. Both of these clubs can shoot the free throws. We'll see who controls the boards. Santa Cruz, girls won the girls' championship and over time we'll see if Aptos and Santa Cruz can one-up them and provide us with a great nightcap to what has been a great day of basketball here at Aptos. It's the boys' championship here for the SCAL coming up next here on CTV Sports. SCAL champion to be crowned tonight. Santa Cruz, the top seed and a host. Aptos here in the boys' basketball panel.

Along with the coach, Kurt Edwards, my name is Tim Swartz and Kurt, for both these teams we mentioned it in the open. These are two teams. They don't play in the 40s, they don't play in the 50s or 60s, they play in the 70s and 80s. No, and that's the miles per hour that they run up and down the floor. Yeah, you're right. These guys love to run the basketball and put the points up. Take a peek at the final standings for the boys division of the SECAL, Santa Cruz on top, Aptos right behind them, Soquel, St. Francis, Scots Valley, San Lorenzo Valley and Harbor having a tough time, but they're in a rebuilding year and the power as far as the prep is all set up, pretty much the same thing all the way down, all that we do bring in the NBA, Watsonville, Montevista, Christian, Pacific Collegiate, Pajaro Valley and Kirby Prep. That was a courtesy of the Santa Cruz Sentinel and our friends at SantaCruiseSentinel.com. So Santa Cruz coming into this game as the favorite and it should be a very interesting game between these two teams. We'll go to some of the keys for Joseph Smith, headman for Aptos, transition basketball. That's going to be tough to do because Santa Cruz likes to do the same thing. Contain that SC penetration and that is going to be hard to do. They'll have to get in there, limit the turnovers and control the boards all going to be a challenge for the Mariners this time. Joey Smith took his team of the finals last year where Santa Cruz just ran all over Aptos and on the other side for coach Bill Domhoff, here are his keys to the game. Billy in his third year as the headman for the Santa Cruz Cardinals, box out Jake Harrell and Jake is a very athletic individual. That could be easier said than done. Again, transition basketball, late transition defense and take the good shots. And you know Tim, knowing coach Domhoff and watching him play, they don't take too many bad shots. They work hard to get into good shots. Here's a third year man, Bill Domhoff, who played under Pete Newell, who's in the house here someplace, never misses a basketball game, no one coach Newell. So we bring in the third member of our broadcast crew, Rusty Reed, with his courtside reports. Well, Santa Cruz, they earned the right to be here as the number one seed in this postseason tournament by holding a track meet last week and their big win against Soquel. They've been right out of the gymnasium and you can expect more of the same tonight. The Cardinals will come hard and fast at Aptos and fatigue will not be a problem. Santa Cruz coaches, Bill and Joel Domhoff will substitute liberally. All 14 guys on that bench will play and they'll play a lot. The only exception to that is Walker Hansen is out tonight. He won't be able to play because of concussion like symptoms and that could be significant because Hansen scored 20 points against Aptos the last time they played. As for Aptos, they'll counter the Santa Cruz onslaught with a 1-2 inside out punch. Inside, it'll be Jake Hurrell, their big man, six foot three, left to have a big night, pulling down boards and scoring points, which he did in the semifinals of this very tournament. On the outside, it's Danny Victory. Victory's hot, three point land. You can expect a high scoring, close game. Tim? Thanks, Rusty. That's a good point. Danny Victory, a three point gunner inside. Jake Hurrell. It's going to be a good one. Aptos and Santa Cruz coming up next on the CTV Game of the Week. Packed out, steered Aptos high school after a sterling rendition of the national anthem. The Aptos Mariners and the Santa Cruz Cardinals here on Community TV, the SCAL Boys Championship. It's a rematch of last year's game won by the Santa Cruz Cardinals. Joey Smith is going to try to get a little bit of revenge with his Aptos Mariners. His starting five. Sakata is one of the guards. Victory, we're hoping to have a hot hand. Jake Hurrell, the center in the middle, is going to get the big rebounds. Montoya, who we know can put up the three, and Cole Wells also at the forward position. They watch Big Old Number 22, and there's Bill Domhoff and his Abraham, Hodges, Dimeo, Conroy, and St. John's in his rusty read. He's pointed out before Hanson, who normally would be one of the starting guards, will not be playing tonight due to concussion-like syndromes. And that's a big loss, because he is a very good player for Bill Domhoff. Packed out, as I mentioned, former Santa Cruz head coach Pete Newell Jr. is in the house. He's a guy who has had a big hand in really bringing up Coach Domhoff. And it's time to really shine here now his turn as the head coach. And I'll tell you, Domhoff's got some scrutiny. He's got obviously Pete Newell, his former basketball coach, Bill Dye, his former baseball coach, and his dad. All sitting in here in the house, two coaches shake hands right out in front of us. They go to the respective blue and red corners, and they'll come out swinging. The Aptos Mariners will be wearing their road uniforms, despite the fact this is a home game for the Mariners, just like last year, the first-seeded Santa Cruz Cardinals against the second-seeded Aptos Mariners. Flashing back really quickly to that 2011 game, it really was Santa Cruz outrunning Aptos in the start, and the second half was mostly a 20-25 point game. Yeah, it is exactly that one. The last time we saw Santa Cruz, they were against Soquel, and they won the opening tip, and the track meet began right from there. Looked for something similar to go on this one. Dimeo and Harrell will be jumping right here at center court. Tom Smith, the head referee, checks with his understudies. Here we go. Tom Smith tips this one up, and we are under way. It's the best officiating crew in the SECAL, as it is the finals, and Smith, the head referee, who is an outstanding referee, makes the call. Here's the full court, 2-2-1 pressure from Santa Cruz. Abraham doing a nice job. Montoya breaks the press and see if Aptos sets up their offense, or if they're going to try and hit that extra octane button right off the start. Victory averages just about two-threes a game. He's a nice shooter, and here's Harrell, who's a tremendous, kind of flex-type player. If Harrell was the intended target of that play, his back was to the ball, but on the ground, Abraham travels. That ball got loose. Aptos had that early turnover, and you can see the athleticism on both of these ball clubs, Tim, as they fight through screens and work their way around. Victory embounds the ball to Cicada down low for Well, and he lost against a very aggressive Santa Cruz defense. All five of these players will bring the ball up, including the heaviest player on the Florida, the tight end, Jamie St. John, and he is just a little bit too out of control. Well, he saw that lane, and he took advantage of it, because that soft 2-2-1 zone. Bill Domhoff's telling his troops to get back. Victory pulls up, and it was deflected by Abraham. St. John, great no-look pass all the way down the court. Conroy's shot is no good. Now, this is very unusual, Tim. We've played a minute, and we've got double zeros on the board. These two teams love to run. Victory all the way to the hoop threw that one up, and he was fouled by Hodges. Blocking foul on Hodges did not get his feet set, but Victory really didn't give him much of a chance. That nice little change goes right down the middle. Hodges, you can see him in midair, and that's going to guarantee you get a foul called in. If he kept his feet on the ground, maybe he would have gotten away, and there would have been a charged foul. Victory drops the first one in. That's the first point of our boys' championship. Second is in and out. Santa Cruz, the Cardinals trying to make it a sweep. The girls' championship, 60 to 56. Santa Cruz defeated Soquel in overtime. St. John, three, left wing, front iron, and that one is harmlessly to Victory. Timeroy really pressing that man to man, getting it out as far as he can. Face-up from Harrell's little short. St. John again will bring it up. Hodges, right wing, takes it towards the lane. DeMail, left wing, back out to St. John, and they'll reset the offense. 6-10 in the first quarter remaining. Just 1-0, the Mariners lead. And Hodges, that was that one knocked throughout. Great defense by Victory to block the ball on that shot by Hodges. Foul that time on. Abraham is first. The ball will be taken out of bounds right across the court from us. See Bill Domhoff. I don't see, I think he's seen too many games this year, where his team hadn't scored in the first two minutes. Harrell is fouled. And if that's against Hodges, that'll be his second personal. And it is. Third team foul, the first two minutes and one second of this contest. Balls him down at up top to Secota. Montoya cuts the lane. Dishes underneath. Well, lays it up, doesn't get the shooter's role. Numbers are four. Aptos, let's see what St. John's does wisely close it up. Open lane taken by Conroy. Off balance, no good. DeMaio went over the back for that rebound. And that foul against Ty DeMaio is his first personal. Already the fourth team foul against the Santa Cruz Cardinals. Number three, Levy Richards comes into the game and replaces Abraham. They break the press. Harrell left side, lays it up with the left hand. That is not exactly how you do it. Keep the pass going from side to side. Work on the angles. Hodges off balance from 18, no good. Rebound tips out to well pass all the way up the court. St. John kept his ground. It did not foul Secota on the other side. Ty DeMaio, first two of the game for the Cardinals. Trying to figure out how to be quick, but the defense on both of these balls close because of their athleticness, not quite able to go around. Well, welcome for somebody. Well, high left wing, Harrell with contact from St. John. And that'll be another foul against the Cardinals. Sick five team fouls already. Yeah, they're going to be in trouble if they keep this pace up with the one and one. And then, of course, the bonus. Good job by Harrell. Spotsat comes across, gets into good shooting position. So he's going to be able to go to the charity to drive and shoot two. Harrell's a very good free throw shooter, and he makes the first. Harrell scored over 20 in the loss last year to Santa Cruz in the SECL final. Also here at Aptos, and they'll miss the second. A 4-2 lead for Aptos. And I'll be honest with you, Kurt. Aptos is playing well, but don't you believe that on the bench, Joey Smith thinks they should be by up more than two right now? He does. He's probably played defensively. Yeah. On the other side of the bench, Bill, there's a good job by the press for Santa Cruz, forcing Victory to step out of bounds. Santa Cruz is going to get the ball underneath their own basket. Bill Domhoff working the officials. He's not completely in agreement with all of the calls. St. John takes the inbounds fast. Conroy swings right side, just into the game. And Eli Levy, Richards, and lose that ball. Victory's pulled up wide. Open, 18-footer, too strong. Now, Santa Cruz wants to, I mean, Santa Cruz's pace is high octane at best, but they still manage to get themselves out of it and force bad shots. Like that one, the turn of Hodges is that blocked by Montoya. Red Herald, and that one taken away. Hodges lays it up and good. Hodges almost got another steal. Way off balance, Montoya. Herald off the vise, no good. And St. John picks up the rebounds. Quickly down the court, come the Cardinals. Levy, Richards swings left side. St. John pulls up, 12-footer, no good. Herald, another rebounds. See when Victory comes down the courts. Conroy really bothering him, and it forces that turnover. Conroy all the way down to the hoop. Yeah, I'm telling you, one thing about Aptos calls the time out. One thing about Santa Cruz, Tim, is it doesn't matter whether the numbers are in their favor as they go to transition basketball or not. Conroy saw two blue shirts, but, and so he pushed it right on down. Here's the pace coming down. Secota gets the ball, blocked, if you will. Levy, Richards with it, pushing the ball down the floor, gives it to Jameu who comes in for that nice. Easy layup. He almost had two Cardinals in the same area. Good job by Levy Richards to move off to the side. Let the big fella come right down behind you, draw the defense over to him, give the ball back for the easy layup. Six to four, the lead. Joey Smith, you see on his screen, he's already used his full time out. Yeah, it's very unusual at this time of the ball game for a coach to use their full time out. But I think in Aptos cases, Coach Smith realized that, wait a minute, we were up by two, but I can smell Santa Cruz starting to warm up those engines over there. They started to play some sloppy offense, giving the ball away. Let's stop this momentum before it actually becomes something that we can't not control. 2-2-1, Santa Cruz is not really substituted the way they usually do today as well. Not yet anyways. In the backcourt, Dakota, Aptos has yet to make a substitution, just one for Santa Cruz in the first five minutes of this one. Right wing, well, up top, Harold swings to the far side. From Montoya, motion offense, victory wide open, near wing three, front iron, that went a little too soft. And the rebound to Santa Cruz. St. John has played a little bit of the point forward. Oh, Scotty Pippen, he takes it to the hoop and he's fouled. He's quick and that nice little crossover dribble for St. John, he takes it right on in. He brings it down, watch this, the lane is open. Nice little two-footed jump, and then straight up into the rim he goes. And he's strong enough that even though he's going to get challenged and bounced, he's going to be able to still muscle that ball right up there. Cole Well picked up the foul, and it's his first personal, and Ryan Parker replaces well. St. John will make the free throw. That's nine points with four baskets by four different players for Santa Cruz. Zone broken easily. Conroy really pushing the ball out. Notice that defense forcing it as far out as they can. Straight away, three from Montoya, and we are down to a two-point game in favor of Santa Cruz. Shot by boxing up by Harrell, and Harrell gives it up. Down low, that one was kicked underneath by Montoya. There goes one of those types of situations. Coaches like it if you make that pass, sometimes at the extra pass. Levy Richards made that extra pass where he actually had an opportunity to have an easy 10-foot jump shot. St. John to Levy Richards on the right wing. Hodges, face up three, way off. Again, good defense to getting the face from the shooters. Get them out of their rhythm a little bit, and you can cause even a good-looking shot to go back. Press broken, Montoya spins out of trouble. Victory looks for the back cup from Secota, and victory straight away. Long three, Danny Victory. The Aptos Mariners strike back and lead 10-9. It's interesting to see if this game stays at this pace. Yes, how they score. Great block by Secota. And Levy Richards will foul the second time by Secota. Secota doing a nice job. Now, Levy Richards beat him going underneath, but Secota didn't give up on it. Stayed right where they were able to be behind him. Get the block the second time through. A little bit too much body along with that block. 10-9 lead for Aptos. Two free throws for the senior, and he makes the first. Harrell comes back in the game after a brief rest. Second, he's just off. Montoya picks up the rebounds. Wide open, left wing three. There's no good for Parker. And the rebound to Conroy up St. John. All the way to the hoop. No good to Mayo. Second effort is in and a foul. Good job by Mayo. Harrell contested that shot by St. John. St. John goes through that gear. Watch 22, comes up, contests that shot a little bit. Looks like a block going out of his hand. But he's not able to recover quite that fast. To Mayo in the offensive rebound. We talked at the top of the show. To Mayo makes that one, giving him five points. One of the things is gonna make a break this victory. And that's gonna be the offensive glass. 13-10, leading for Santa Cruz on the road. Officially, they are the home team. But they're in Aptos' home gym. Victory, as he was almost hit. And he can't make the three. Conroy starts to push it up wisely. Sees that the transition's not gonna work. So they're gonna set up and run an offense. This is about as slow as if Santa Cruz offense will get. Still, a lot of movement. Wellie almost stole that one away. Instead, St. John's beat line to the end. No good, Conroy. Second efforts. As soon as anybody goes into that middle, you see two more white shirts show up there to contest any of the blue-clad Aptos Mariners through a rebound. Shot clock is dead. Victory up top with nine seconds remaining in the first quarter. Victory, trying to shake it back. We'll take it to the hoop. That ball is lost off the hands of Ryan Parker with 1.5 seconds left. Good defense by Levy Richards. Great job of staying right with victory. And you're right, he was shaking and baking. He had everything going, except he couldn't get his shot off. And just thrown at the rim. Out of play with 0.5 seconds. 5 tenths of a second. So you do have enough time to catch and shoot with 5 tenths of a second. You do have. They're gonna run a stack with St. John just a little bit off of it. Now he's gonna rotate in. Whoever's gonna shoot, is gonna have to go quick. Not that bad. St. John gets that one rejected by Ryan Parker. And that'll do it for the first quarter of play. 15 to 10, the lead for the Santa Cruz Cardinals. And I do think that if you go into this, after you go into the second quarter, just down five for Aptos, I think you got to be kind of disappointed because there was only two points for Santa Cruz in the first four minutes of this quarter. Yeah, you're right. Aptos was definitely running the pace. At least they're the first couple of minutes. There's victory, just backing it up. Setting that offense, trying to get a shot off. He comes up for like 24 feet. Once he gets in that shooting rhythm, Tim, he's very difficult to stop. And that's sort of like the defenders in there. All right, you're 20, 25 feet out. Take that shot. 10% shot. But victory, you know, he nailed that one. He has four points all the way through. And a reminder, we will have the SCCL wetter-stressling championships a week from tonight. I think another good point too, about that last three by victory is if you're 25 feet out, but you get to take a dribble and take a step in, that 22-footer's not really that long of a shot as opposed to maybe a catch and shoot from maybe 19 or 18. Almost an easier shot because of your momentum. You're exactly right. You are getting that rhythm momentum. You're able to get your legs underneath you and use everything going straight up. That catch and shoot. A lot of players like to go off that, create off of that. Victory right side as we open up the second quarter to play. Parker, pump fake, got his defender off balance. Went up, couldn't get it to go. Wellie will get the roll. Cole doing a good job battling inside. Never gave up his position underneath the glass and was rewarded for it. Falls, works around the yard. Over to the left wing. Letty Richards couldn't get it to go. Wellie cleans up the glass. Victory crosses to the timeline with a chance to tie this one up. Aftos continues to run. We're gonna see if they can do something backdoor. See if Harold ever posts up. But I'll tell you, Well is really posting up down underneath. He and Demeo having a great battle. Montoya out of the screen with 10 on the shot clock. And Letty Richards takes that one away. All the way up the court. Conroy on the alley. Great pass, great body control by Conroy. Demeo almost saved that one in. He did run into the third row. It's off him last. Aftos ball. The style of press that Aftos has. If you lob that ball up there, there's your steal. Letty Richards, nice pass. Conroy showing great body control. He'll be able to catch it, still stay in midair and get a nice shot off. Doing a good job denying down low for Harold and it's stolen away. Letty Richards all the way to the hoop. Conroy will put that one in. Great block by Montoya. He blocked Letty Richards' shot, but you gotta credit Santa Cruz for how the tenacity of continuing to pursue the ball and go for the basket. Explanation for this horn. Not exactly sure what happened. I could. The foul was on the original shot of just a real late whistle to get Secota. All right, that's his first. So they go over to Montoya trying to explain that, no, you had a nice clean shot. It was one of your other players that just got him with the body. First free throw is good for Letty Richards. That was the second against Secota. Second is no good, Conroy with the rebound and he couldn't get a three-two point. Montoya, three-on-two fast break, bounce it. Secota just lost that ball. And the other side comes Letty Richards. Takes it up himself. He is fouled by Aptos. It'll be the fifth team foul and it'll go against Danny Victory, his first personal. Danny found himself in trouble. Watch, Letty Richards, he's got that extra gear, goes through it. The defense was never set. Jake was right up there. If the shot had gone up, he'd have swatted it. Hodges, that's an awful long five seconds. That was the longest five seconds I've ever counted. They were able to get the ball in. Still have a lot of time on the shot clock. Santa Cruz can get into that little weave type of the situation. They found themselves unfortunately with a turn over. Victory, slowly up the court. Over to the left wing. Back to Victory. Rhythm three, front iron, that one bounces over. You know this basket to the left of your screen that we've seen. And it looks like the screws are loose or something. It's a lot softer, isn't it? And do we've seen at least five times the boys and girls getting the ball bounced off the rim and over the backboard? Yeah, the basket right now that Santa Cruz is attacking is seen from our vantage point to be a lot more forgiving and softer through the shooters. St. John, the physical forward. Puts it up with the foul. He goes in, that big tight end. He's got that tight end mentality. He's got that football mentality. Finds the ball, up, he gave him a gap. He's gonna be able to take it. He uses his shoulders very well. He almost initiates the contact, but as people go for the block or try and reach in to get the ball, they hit him, so he's gonna be the recipient of a free throw. It's against Welley, and it's his second personal. St. John throws it up and in, and Joey Smith's gonna call a timeout. Good idea. 21-12, it has been a 6-2 second quarter thus far. And I'll ask you something, Kurt. Just really, just to be blunt about it, they just haven't gotten the ball to their cash cow down low at all. Jake Carroll, what do they gotta do to get him the ball? Well, he's gotta have to move a little bit more. They may have to do some screens down low a little bit, or starting down low, and then bring him up to right at the, you know, the key, gets at the top of the key, or maybe right at the free throw line, right at the corner of it. They might have to do that one, but I'll tell you, they really are defending him well with their big people. DVD sales, if you want a copy of tonight's game, or games I should say, or any others, learn how at communitytv.org, backslashdubs. Watch how quick that defense comes right on in. Blocked by St. James, and we're already back to live action. Montoya puts it back in. There we go. Montoya with five, leading scorer for Aptos, 21-14 with five, 35 remaining. St. John, sees the three, can't, can't, can't. Oh my! And that one, that's a shooter's roll. Shooters roll and a shooter's bounce. Went straight up, went straight in. And he leads all scores with eights. Are you surprised that Santa Cruz has played just six players in the first quarter in three minutes? I really am, I really am, Tim. I figured we'd see it at least a half a reason, but doesn't by now. Parker, who is a shooter off the bench, makes his first attempt. Conroy tries to just fly that one up. Tameo tips out the rebounds, and St. John will reset the offense. Give the ball out to Hydra, he's guarded by victory. Let's see how they put this in motion. Down low screen, trying to move it all the way around. Look out, the freight trains got it. And it's an offensive foul, pushed off on Montoya. Against St. John, second person on it. I think Jamie St. John's gonna get to the bench as he is replaced by Chris Martin. Chris Martin is in, and Thatcher Sabat comes into the contest. So here are your changes. He's took a little bit longer. Eight point lead for Santa Cruz, technically on the road, although they are the home team. Victory, running to the floor. Wall up to Nail. Great outlet pass. Sammix, and they'll reset to Hodges. Right side, Chris Martin, back to Hodges. Gonna start that motion and see if they can't get Martin to roll up on top. That's where he was coming from. Hodges buries a three. 11 point lead for Santa Cruz. This is more of a slow pull away by the Santa Cruz Cardinals, as opposed to a traditional track beat. Although, I guess St. Francis had got the time. St. Francis was in for the first two quarters. By quarter three, they blew him away. Victory knocks down a three. His second trifecta of the contest. Good ball handling, wait to go for Hodges to get out of trouble. Levy Richards thought that one was good off his hand. He missed it. And that one is just stolen away by Sammix, but he stepped out of bounds. One of the things you gotta do when you get the ball down underneath is start to slow it down mentally. Yeah, the clock starts to tick that you've got 10 seconds to get across, but you've gotta wait for your people to come or at least start to slow it down so you don't panic and throw the ball away. A point advantage for Santa Cruz. Montoya bounce it down. Wellie is gonna get it to go. Harold, right in your living room, was fouled. We'll see who it's against. So it gets Levy Richards, and it'll be a one-on-one. That's his first. And I think for Jake, that's gonna go to the charity strike. He's already been there once, made one. Nice rotation, gets the second one. Second. Touch it to a six point lead for the Cardinals. Bill Domhoff to my right, encouraging his Cardinals on and at the same time working on a referee. I like that. Sammit to the free throw line. Levy Richards, Martin. Blocked by Wellie. Transition. It was a foul. Levy Richards trying to stop the ball, but in the progress of Parker, went for the ball. Actually got it, but the two collided and so it's gonna be a blocking foul called on Levy Richards. Parker gets a chance to shoot. Don't want to foul a jump shooter, especially when he's not shooting. You watch these good jump shooters. They'll go to the free throw line a couple of times or get in that shooting rhythm. And all of a sudden they become hot. Parker misses the back end. Made it get one. Down to a five point lead for the Cardinals. Martin. Step back to the line. Jumper too strong. Levy Richards trying to just throw it up. Sammit no. Martin, the fourth shot is in the foul. They crowd right behind the Santa Cruz Benz. Absolutely erupts. Tim, you saw a classic offensive rebounding foot back technique. Watch it if you get this. The ball goes up. Levy Richards barely gets it. Sammit gets it right on the ground. They catch the ball and land right back on the ground and go right back up again. They don't allow the defender to get anywhere near him by putting the ball on the ground. Harold picks up the miss. Victory looks to his head coach. Joey Smith for the Aptos Mariners with some instructions. Harold going to be called for a foul. No. Bill Zavon just blew up. John Smith the head referee who's inviting Coach Domhoff to have a seat. I don't blame Coach Domhoff. Harold wasn't trying to foul, but if you take somebody, if somebody's legs out, it's usually a foul. Levy Richards just tenacious on his defense. He fights through the screen and pushes victory farther away. Harold Parker playing a little two-man game. Gets his passive zone. Now Harold finally will take the three in and out. Two minutes remaining. First half, 29-22, Santa Cruz. Martin through Harold and he plays it off the glass and good. Great body controls. Pickles set down there hoping to get a charge and Martin doing a nice job of just bending his way right around the defender. 31-22. 100 seconds left in the SCCAL. First half to the boys game. Three-pointer left side. Those are the types of shots that can really kill any kind of rally and spark one for yourself. Chris Martin the laser. Martin with seven points here in just a second quarter. Harold tries to go one on two. He couldn't get it. Montoya through the lanes rejected by D'Ameo. Beautifully played. Beautifully timing is everything you watch. D'Ameo, the ball gets outside. D'Ameo waits. Goes up, times it. Now if you're Bill Russell, you're trying to swat it to one of your players that could play. But if you want to spark the crowd, you block the ball, get it out of bounds. Bill Delmanoff is being asked to sit down. I think he was just teed up as well. Well, I know that one thing he's been given a warning. Gaps on his cheerleaders. Yep. He got a bench technical. So, victory. Danny Victory is going to go see what he can do. First free throw is in and out. Lonelyest place in the entire gym right now is the free throw line. Seconds. Sometimes you can get lonelier. Old saying. And now, Jamie St. John was teed up. We had a taunting foul. And I believe that's going to go against Conroy. So you can't tell me that there are not a few emotions flying around through this gym. So now, Jake Perrell is going to be able to get a go to the free throw line. I think they can make these free throws. They can find themselves back in this game. 34-26. Six points for Jake. And even with that, Aptos still is able to get the ball. They'll take it out right across at half court, right across from us. Right across from the Scorer's Table. This does bring back some fond memories of games not necessarily played in this gym, but definitely Santa Cruz Aptos games of yesteryear. Pete Newell and Bill Warmer Dan used to hook up with some beauts. Look at the defense pushing out. We got to fight through the screen. Aptos trying to run some kind of a screen and motion game, but Santa Cruz doing a good job fighting through all the screens. Perrell almost traveled. Looking for help. Two on the shot clock. That one's forced up in Montoya. Great take. Just a five point game. Shot clock dead. That one's charged against Levy Retchers. And that is his third person. He came down the floor on the right side, turned it in on baseline and looked like he ran into Big Old Number 22, who would definitely establish his presence in the path. Back into live action. Ryan Parker couldn't get him to go with the shot clock dead. But this one's just stolen away. Perrell takes it straight to the hoop 34-31. Aptos is back in it down by three. A 6-0 run. A couple of fouls and technical and then some sloppy basketball playing. Straight away Hodges. Long range. No good. And we have had a barn burner tonight between these two teams. 34-31 as they head into the locker room. Kurt, a lot of emotion in the building tonight. Tremendous amount of emotions on this one. And you're not, you're going to feel even more emotion as this game continues to progress. And Aptos really came back. They did not give anything up. Rusty Reed is going to try and get hold of the Aptos coach Joey Smith. Gives his thoughts on what was going on in the first half. Those first two quarters were big quarters. And we'll send it over to Rusty. Coach Smith. What a run there at the end. How did that come about? Well, we were pleased to finish the half the way we did. Santa Cruz is playing well and we just wanted to stabilize and give ourselves an opportunity in the second half. Been able to reel in that speed that Santa Cruz has been showing of late. Well, they really get after you and you really got to maintain your composure and you just got to keep it simple and hit the open man and then be aggressive when you have your opportunities and so that's what we're going to try to do as we go into the second half. Yeah, the one element that seems to be missing, the inside game is strong. You haven't been able to really hit many from outside. Well, when they're really pressuring you, you have to try to attack them off the dribble. So sometimes, you know, you're going to you're not going to get the ball inside as much as you'd like, but we definitely like to get Jake Moore involved in the second half. All right. Good luck. And there we have it. 34, 31. Got close at the end. He's up with the second half right after this. 34, 31. Santa Cruz leads Aptos half time of the SCAL boys championship and we go court side to the third member of our broadcast crew standing by Rusty Reed. Hey, we're with Bill Domoff, Santa Cruz coach. So boy, things really got got crazy there at the end. Yeah, a lot of competition out there amongst the boys. Both teams are fighting and as coaches, we're trying to make sure that they get everything that they deserve out there. So we were asking for the same calls and one of our boys clapped and one of the officials didn't like it and we told our guy to sit down and, you know, just stuff you don't usually see, but in a game like this, it seems to have brought out the emotions in everybody. Now, it doesn't look like you guys are running or substituting like you normally do. Is that because of something Aptos is doing? Is that your decision? It's based on my decision. The matchups we have looks like they're going really well and we don't have Walker Hanson tonight who's usually our starting guard and so that limits some of our rotations. All right, good luck in the second half. It's going to be a wild one. Thanks for stopping by Bill Domoff, Santa Cruz High Coach. Now over to Tim. Thanks for Rusty and that was a real nice job by Bill Domoff to sit with us right before this game or right before the second half. The game gets restarted and he was very bad at the fact of what happened and we got to respect Coach Domoff for really kind of giving us what was really going on. That was not coach speak. That's what's going on in this one. No, that's what's actually going on. Take a peek at some of the highlights we've had here. Great movement earlier in the game by Aptos as they break the Santa Cruz press and here's one of the things that Conroy does back little coast to coast defense never got set. So Conroy says I'll take it all the way on in almost to steal by Dimeo in Montoya sets up for a three and he bangs that one right on home. Great steal. Levy Richards. He's been really kind of the catalyst and he's pushing that offense down good body control by Conroy to bank that one in for another two of the Santa Cruz 34 points. St. John's he can do inside or he can go up and then a little bit higher and then in that one actually they would have cleared a shot clock and the shot clock would have been there and Jonah Hodges the excellent running back on the other side it was just a little bit too quick at times for Aptos and you see how quick Santa Cruz kind of just gave that ball away you've got to have patience Dimeo looked down court and he thought he saw somebody but there was the Aptos mariner right there and Tim I think we're going to have we got 16 more minutes of regulation time to play it's it's going to be fun the officials are going to have to probably talk to the two respective benches to make sure everything is going to be under control but they have to do a great job on the court to communicate with the players call the fouls properly but more than anything else an official on the floor they have an opportunity to talk to the players before they make that foul there could be something out like okay hands off him third time there goes the whistle the officials they can control the pace of the game it's hard to control the emotions of these young high school athletes the Santa Cruz Cardinals the one seed second seeded Aptos the way it should be number one verse number two in the SCCAL and here we are a postseason championship at stake 34-31 Santa Cruz led by as many as eight or nine in the first half and their lead is just three at the half we're under way along with the coach Kurt Edwards on Tim Swartz we thank you for joining us here on our conclusion of CTV basketball season St. John in and out on his shots that was for that rim to the left-eer screen which has been kind of loose tonight it has been there's almost steel by Dimeo good anticipation ball still on the floor St. John's got it Conroy has it what a pass Conroy he lays it up and in St. John just made a great 50 foot football pass Montoya has that one blocked by Dimeo but on the weak side Harold lays it up and in the presence by Harold did not give up on that play he was down there for a rebound and he got some garbage Conroy for three Santa Cruz coming out trying to establish some offensive presence was a three headed monster Montoya victory and Harold who each had seven in the first for the Aptos Mariners playing on their home court here's St. John he's going to go strong to the hoop no good but he was fouled from behind by Montoya Montoya's got to go up and contest that shot there's different philosophies but at this point in time ball is out one thing I think St. John's is a big freight train coming to Ron Losi almost got taken out for lunch first one's good St. John let all scores along with Chris Martin in the first half with eights what I was going to say about Montoya he's got to get up there and contest that shot if he if he follows St. John and goes to the free throw line and St. John misses any one of those two shots that he did on that one a little bit of a bonus goes for the Aptos Mariners Harold you see after he takes the rebound quickly up the court victory right wing open three front iron no good Montoya took the rebound he misses a nice little 10 footer loose ball foul it's going to be Montoya with a push little more than anything else Tim that's more of a frustration foul for the Aptos Mariners shooting frustration foul he thought he probably had it he shoved one of those cartels away Hodges all the way to the hoop great pass a little too hot to handle though for Dimeo he put it he didn't have to use too much mustard on that now he really threw a fast ball on that play and Dimeo's good first baseman for Santa Cruz with the baseball team but didn't have his glove on Montoya crosses the timeline left side Harold against Dimeo can't slice it in this one is St. John stealing it the three on one St. John don't look past the shot's no good Conroy is blocked out of bounds by Wellie Abraham had the first crack at it and he just couldn't really get a good grip on it St. John nice little pass to Abraham who just did not he did not only the grip yeah and he didn't have that good rhythm to take it up to a layup out of a break Dimeo puts it up with the foul third against Wellie is Dimeo puts it up in the basket and the foul but one thing you don't want to do if you're a have some of your big men get me in foul trouble Santa Cruz keep coming right on to his interesting listening to Bill Domhoff saying he likes his matchups that's why he's not selling Montoya strong to the hold kind of look down and look up and point games all the way already up to an eight point lead for Santa Cruz and they can score quickly down the way these two teams play you don't want to blink Conroy to the lane and his foul Conroy I just continued to work my way right on through because that's going to be on the floor a pat and he was trying to pass the ball when he got fouled you've got that opportunity you might as well take it right on up to the rack and see if you're going to get the old fashion three point play Abraham to Hodges right wing dumps it Conroy right side this one's deflected Conroy to the corner releases up top of St. John St. John through the lane dishes off to Mayo two shorts Conroy rebound St. John 12 footer notice the calmness of Santa Cruz had underneath timeout Amtos Mariners Conroy Smith says I've had enough of this rebound stuff there's the assistant coach Joel Domhoff getting the spy camera ready Domhoff gate Joel who teaches up at UC USC his dad who's right across the way sitting next to Bill Dodge also teaches up and then his brother Bill who teaches at Santa Cruz third year at Santa Cruz basketball coach here comes the big man he gets underneath the Mayo doing a nice job but he continues to fight for the ball Conroy's got it nice court awareness and nice vision to give it out to St. John who's just inside the free throw line I think St. John deserved that basket he came in created a nice look for Dimeo and the basketball gods rewarded him with an open 12 footer sports guys are interesting in how they reward you for a good solid effort 10 point lead for the Santa Cruz Cardinals I mean you don't want to maybe put one team ahead of all the rest but I think from your time in this area you think Santa Cruz maybe would say the New York Yankees of the SCCAO and all the previous leagues they might be you know they very well might be especially in the basketball both these teams could be the New York Yankees or the Dodgers Cardinals if you will they're always at the top always battling each other and Parker off balance is no good Parker brings him scoring off the bench and he replaces Dakota Hodges St. John really thought about it he's got some strength on Montoya Montoya had great position and forces St. John too far underneath the basket 15 on the shot clock good steal by the Mariners Harold, spin move, drives to the lane, dishes Montoya lays it up and good as the Mayo he tried to swipe the ball and Montoya just laid it up and good Abraham off balance no good sometimes you gotta wait for that defense to get set up so they have an opportunity for a rebound victory pull up three rattles through and it's down to a five point lead for the Cardinals third three pointer for victory on the evening that three point play with the ABA came up with that one that was a great addition to basketball St. John gets the screen pull up can't get the roll from 18 victory watched it gun it again this one locked by the Mayo Parker pumps it looks to rotate up top to Montoya five point lead for Santa Cruz 330 remaining in the third quarter they'll reset the offense high right side to Montoya out of the screen Harold drives to the lane and he falls falls off to him out of bounds good defense very good defense by Abraham that time here comes Harold around the corner Abraham able to stay right in front of him and then get his hand right on top of the ball and Harold could not do a thing Hodges slowly up the floor snaps that ball around good rotation by the Cardinals maybe Richards can get it in and here is the fast break Harold lost a handle there and they'll have to reset to their half court offense Montoya bumped by Conroy has a nice move by Montoya a little stutter step Conroy came up didn't have good balance on his approach defensively as Montoya was starting to go around and he was fouled victory off the inbound split had an open three left wing for a moment they still worked the ball around victory left wing three is no good Harold fights for the rebound kept alive welly off the pump fake in the pass fake kisses it off the glass three point game good use of his body to buy space underneath the basket Hodges aggressive through the lane loses this to Deveille looking for some health Levy Richards up top St. John asks for a pick and he put that one up and was fouled by Montoya it's not every time Tim that St. John starts to go to the rack that he's fouled but almost every time Jamie takes it out you can see he asked for the clear out he had the mismatch that he wanted he saw the lane and he took advantage of it two for Jamie St. John as the first player into this game into double figures and he makes the first free throw he was George H. Wilson player of the game last time out he points unofficially on the night for Jamie and the second I like that rotation I like the release when he shot that ball very nice it's off the back court victory steals it back for the Aptos Mariners that's one of those where you just start to play the game a little bit too fast Tim you got that steal down and you're in you can bring it all the way up let the offense come back down set it up you've got 30 seconds to shoot the rocks if you need all 30 take it 210 showing on the third quarter clock 47 42 Aptos seeing a foul offensive the moving screen all against Parker number 21 so Ryan the sixth one guard he's a senior now I can hear everybody yelling for Jamie so let's see how they rotate through St. John posting underneath against Parker push and shove down there good tenacity by St. John he stays right after the ball ready Richard comes through the lane jump ball possession arrow pointing to Aptos you've got to be able to he starts to come down he's got to be able to look for that open man or somebody's got to be able to get open so he can see him neither one happened he got the jump ball and Aptos has the ball just a five point game seems like multiple times tonight Kurt that Santa Cruz has had the opportunity to maybe run away with this Dakota trying to keep it in flies out of bounds ended up in the parking lot trying to save that ball good effort by Dakota yeah you're right you get five here come the Mariners maybe they get up to seven here come the Mariners this game is far from over St. John up the left side down low Jameo dropped by Harold good job by Harold the male's got to get back and play defense he can't stand around back there right wing well big three on the way in and out rebound tipped around Harold fights for it he keeps it alive Parker wide open three on the way got it just a two point lead for the Cardinals the reason for that one is a hustle by number 22 he's still going down Harold with another block continues to attack the center and Harold picking up another block now you want to rally a crowd block the ball or dunk it that'll send his place into orbit Lady Richards releasing the salmon they want to isolate for St. John instead up top for Hodges victory reaching in trying to disrupt the flow of the offense St. John was given the open three by victory took it and he missed it shot clock dead chance for Amptos to take the lead going to the fourth go with victory who is a very good three point shooter here come Harold up to the top set that screen not there to go to fight his way couldn't get it to go two seconds left St. John sling this one up as good as it goes high off the back no good 47 45 it's still a real close game between these two teams and I think Amptos even though they only won that quarter by one point have all the momentum going into the fourth I think they do they're setting up to play good defense and I just like the way that they're starting to move the ball offensively at Santa Cruz diner you always find great food at reasonable prices family owned and operated since 1998 Santa Cruz diner is kid friendly and offers a wide selection of traditional and vegan items great staff and comfortable atmosphere will make you feel right at home featured on the food channel easy to find on Ocean Street Santa Cruz on the web at Santa Cruz diner dot com great food price right at the Santa Cruz diner here was a big three the last basket of this first half it was just a kind of a wild turn of events well Jake Harold is the one that does that has his ability to get down on the floor and go after that loose ball and then has the cool presence of mind not to panic gets it to an open marry who found Parker over on the on the left side with a nice angle and very good shooting rhythm just watching some of these guys shoot such as Danny Henry and Ryan Parker they come up they've got that nice little 45 degree elbow and they just release it right off their fingertips very sweet shots Jamie St. John the excellent tight ends for Santa Cruz football team slapped that ball and almost pops it in the play court quarter underway eight minutes left potentially more already seen an extra four earlier on today double high post for Santa Cruz to mail it to somebody nice rotation no panic there should be anyways St. John over the top of the mail just happened to be there Conroy checks back in for Santa Conroy had two in the first quarter excuse me four in the first quarter and he had five here the third more or less more of an offense St. John the mail pretty much carry the load offensively one thing about Santa Cruz they do spread the wealth out out of the screen Parker looks to victory pump fake back out to Parker straight away find the open man it was for a moment Montoya underneath and it's punched out of bounds by Conroy so it stays laptop 17 on the shot clock I scrambling defense by Santa Cruz around getting themselves out of position but the hustle got them back Montoya the senior shooter for the lead 847 Aptos has their first lead since the first quarter victory is spot up and he didn't even hesitate St. John is partially deflected the sixth block of the game for Harold here's where patience comes in Aptos has the lead victory heat check he was fouled though by Conroy now why Conroy is that far out victory fired that thing it had to be about a 33 footer Conroy was coming at it watch as he comes up he's just going to cast it Conroy comes up just runs right into you know for my money shoot that shot victory is on fire he is already nailed four threes in this game including the last one that gave Aptos their first lead since early in the first quarter and he makes the first of two free throws both these teams playing for a league championship Santa Cruz took the regular season crown and they're the one seed on the road though against Aptos the two seed three free throws for victory and he misses the second and foul is a big one against Conroy it was his third personal St. John checks out and a guy who had a very quietly just great first half Chris Martin who had eight points in the first half comes back in Martin had to check out and chuck back in because he didn't have a shirt tucked in rules Hodges up the court the player of the year in football Jonah Hodges a senior backdoor cut Conroy lays it off the glass and good he's got nine and Conroy it's called for another foul he knocked off Parker that's the third team foul against the Santa Cruz Cardinals and those are two not the most intelligent fouls that you're going to get because of the distance they are away from the basket that's the fourth against Conroy as well that is one where I'm sure Coach Domhoff is going to have to get number eleven out Carroll cuts to the basket and lays it good leading score the senior stepping up with eleven fifty two forty nine six fifteen remaining Hodges trying to clear out against the ball down inside to Conroy releases up top Levy Richards the senior bench player left wing drives in on Montoya off balance and the foul is on the floor it'll be the seventh team foul and it's against Montoya second person it's hard as Montoya plays it's hard to say that he's only got four he did beat Martin in the spot but he did not establish a position so Martin wisely kept coming pulled it up and made that shot attempt it's a rematch of the twenty eleven game which was won by the Santa Cruz Cardinals it just blew out Aptos right here in Aptos first free throw was good front end of the one and one for Martin he's a very good free throw shooter and he's two for two tonight you mentioned it before the game Kurt free throws are going to be very important in this one these two teams are very close in talent Martin missed the second loose ball off of Harold that time Dimeo was contesting for that rebound and Harold trying to gain control but he just could not gets it out of bounds Jonah Hodges will take it out right above you Levy Richards three off balance was kind of backing up Hartford has lost that ball through his legs all alone sometimes you can be too quick grab the rebound hold the ball up see where you're going to go two hands Hodges off the inbounds play Levy Richards flies to the rain and his floater is no good for Harold we mentioned Harold being the leading striker for Aptos he's had a solid game with eleven points but he has about six blocks more than ten rebounds and he's been just a monster doing everything he is and now he's got the ball from way out high great pass Parker's rhythm three is in and out good job by Martin corrals the rebound and gets it out St. John's numbers are not in my favor still in a man to man is Aptos Hodges he terminates turn around bank shot old school shots I like old school shots and I like that little move evenly divided pack Jim tonight Kurt it is this is the way basketball is supposed to be and huge crowd Harold with just a little bit of a push he says he was standing there Jonah Hodges with pretty good acting award too we'll take a look at this one again Kurt Harold's about ready to set that screen just a little bit of a like flinch by Harold and that's all it took for the referee to call that foul you gotta wait till the screen is set until you can roll you roll before the screen was finished exactly coming up on top nice move underneath backdoor cut to Chris Martin he's in a double figures the fourth difference Santa Cruz Cardinal to get in double figures balance scoring 54-52 Santa Cruz retakes the lead victory all the way to the hoop no good Well is fouled from behind by St. John and he'll have a chance to tie the game with two free throws St. John was either going to foul it or take his head off both were going to result all the way underneath on the far side really didn't do a good job of boxing out Wellie was able to get that rebound get St. John up in the air and go up and make that shot attempt down the first a sophomore he kind of reminds you of Harold in a way the same heights they both have good touch Harold has about 20 pounds on him but just give Wellie a couple years and he'll add some muscle to that frame Well Cole's done a nice job tonight underneath he really works hard gets his body in good position is able to fend off some of the bigger and stronger Santa Cruz players 54 all 440 remaining SCAL championship on the line first seeded Santa Cruz Hodges is three Jonah Hodges joins the double figures party he's got 10 that's a big shot and a tough shot by Hodges really didn't establish any rhythm good job by Danny victory to continue to push up the floor against Jonah Hodges Hodges with the block called against him half the crowd thinks that's a great call the other half doesn't emotions high there were a couple of technicals in the first half one against Bill Domhoff and one was assessed to a player on the bench for clapping Clayton Conroy 5754 Santa Cruz has the lead victory long range bomb in and out good job by Sammich to collect that rebound he saw it was going immediately went right to it mark of a good rebound anticipate then go get it that's a 10 second violation against Hodges Hodges has brought it up slowly and the correct call there were actually 24 seconds on the shot clock when that was called the officials won't get into that 10 count so you started to come up the floor Montoya so well had the open three gave it up to victory good idea with 27 on the shot clock Montoya right wing Wellie down to the right block Harold's turnaround partially deflected and the rebound to Sammich's great defense by St. John's did not give up any ground Harold tried to back him down couldn't do it hesitation move don't look past tomato lays it up and in good job knowing where your players are on the floor your teammate is crucial just six cardinals have scored after last week's game of the week there were 13 different cardinals that scored against Soquel Aptos has just played six players Montoya up the short corner looking to release victory with eight on the shot clock goes one on the rebound to Hodges crosses him over off balance floater gets the roll 59 56 under three minutes remaining in the game Aptos trying to come back and retake the lead Hodges trying to get a step on victory and victories just as quick St. John's fade away too strong Montoya takes the rebound Parker pulls up 17 footer front iron no good and the rebound to Hodges on Hodges bought another foul that time on Harold Harold's bleeding his case but he's not going to get it Jonah Hodges did a nice job of getting that rebound and then going to secure it Harold made the if he did commit the foul which he did his loan great mistake was in trying to reach around and see if he couldn't get the ball away from Jonah Hodges number 20 who now goes to the free throw line if the players got you got his back to you let it go no sense in reaching because more times than not Tim an official is going to call it the reach one and one misses the front end and well just tip the rebound to Dakota he was tied up and the positioner was pointing to Aptos here's the replay of that last turn here's where Harold reaches over that's where he's got it Jonah made a fire to Noble but it was after the fact victory up the court to Dakota three point lead for Aptos to try to come back from well in the lane and he falls down and rolls through great job by Weld to break underneath horrible defense that time by Santa Cruz Hodges gave up the turf by leaping up on top nice set nice pick set by Dimeo the defensively Tim you got to stay on your feet you can't just go jumping all over the place because then you put the rest of your team in jeopardy Dakota up the court right side Montoya back to Dakota had the open three didn't take it three point lead for Santa Cruz a hundred seconds remaining Dakota right wing victory off balance three can't get it in look at the strong rebound against St. John as he falls down he lays it in 61-60 lead for Santa Cruz 125 last time out Bill Domhoff for this time out what a battle underneath we're seeing between Harold and St. John especially down on the Aptos and Harold fights for it he realizes he's going to go up against a bigger guy what you're trying to do down there is a couple of head fakes your defender has started to settle and he's not going to get off the ground go up as quickly as you possibly can victory with sort of a leaping Lena there's a battle underneath there's one little head fake and then it's a nice little fall away jumper beautifully executed puts his body up against St. John maybe leans into him just a little bit and falls away that was great touch my pick number 22 Jake has been having another fabulous game he loves it when the red lights are here every time we come here Jake Harold scores at least 20 he's up to 13 tonight hodges to inbound it when Rusty Reed talked about what Aptos had to do they're getting a good game for Mr. Inside Harold Mr. Outside Victory but also adding Parker to it Conroy a cutter 15 on the shot clock to mail with the handoff Martin goes right to the hole throws it off the glass and good three point lead for Santa Cruz a minute remaining good body control all the way through victory see if he can come up with some of that three point magic great defense by Santa Cruz maybe a little bit too eagerness and tubra but Aptos says Joey Smith says I need to call a full-time out the situation for you 63-60 Santa Cruz leads Aptos 50.8 seconds remaining it's a full-time out called for by the Aptos Mariners the Mariners are not getting the bonus just five team fouls against the Cardinals and nine team fouls against the Aptos Mariners so from here now it will be two free throws at least for Santa Cruz every single time they're fouled making sure everybody the referees know how many timeouts each side has 26 seconds to go in this timeout big timeout a lot of strategy being talked down there in the Aptos huddle and right next to us Bill Domhoff going over some strategies to the Cardinals and Santa Cruz High School draw up that play for a basket one thing both these teams need Tim and the coach is preaching all the time his patience if you get the ball on a rebound cover it up possession arrow looks like right now it's in favor of Santa Cruz victory takes the in-bounds pass Harold handoff victory 15 seconds back to victory the three got the time 40 seconds left will off the timeout it was a pretty simple game plan from Joey Smith two man game Danny victory and the big man Jake Harold 63-0 39.3 seconds left still plenty of time 35 seconds on the shot clock even if Santa Cruz takes it all the way down to the last second before they make their basket he's going to have about four so ticks on the clock three ticks on the clock it's going to be fun nice pass nice rotation on a screen St. John's rotated back over to Harold and Hodges stayed over with him so all's victory had to do is just break over to his right a couple places and Jake saw him beautiful pass great rhythm on the shot great thing about that shot 39 seconds left which means if you can not give up an offensive rebound you'll be able to get it the last shot at least wrapped off to Joe Smith Jack Smith the assistant coach also going adding his two cents the big thing about that there's a 4.3 shot clock game clock differential so Aptos as long as they don't give up an offensive rebound we'll have a chance to to have a chance to have a shot so it won't be a last shot situation a little equipment timeout is looks like DeMail has got to tie up his sneaks Conroy underneath the baskets Conroy the ball very soft Aptos giving it up they'll pick it up tight when they get across half court 25 on the shot clock St. John swings left wing Conroy running the weave up top Chris Martin victory doing a good job of dogging Hodges left side he loses the ball it's regained by the Cardinals just three on the shot clock Hodges the three for the lead the rebound's out of play shot clock violation 3.2 seconds left Joey Smith's got one timeout left we call it I think he called Aptos calls a timeout yes 3.2 left as you said Tim it'd be an interesting diagram to see what he's gonna do Danny victory no doubt he's got a hot hand he's looking for his shots he's looking for his shots anytime he gets inside half court 3.2 seconds is how much time's left and that's about three dribbles we'll listen to Bill Domoff and he's got 3.2 seconds left here's the interesting thing too it might be a little bit dangerous but Santa Cruz does have a foul to give I think it's a little bit too dangerous on this one it's going to be interesting to see who takes it out for the Aptos Mariners and they're going to be taking it out underneath their own bucket defensively we're going to see you've got to know where Jay Carroll is and he's underneath St. John's going to go back underneath and guard him stay with that soft 2 2 1 zone it looks that's what Santa Cruz is going to do they're going to put more time on the clock as well because it was 39.3 seconds left so if it is a 35 second violation it should be 4.3 seconds left which is giant because that's an extra dribble of the ball sometimes two dribbles of the ball but it's definitely a little bit more Bill Domoff barking out the direction there you are 4.3 seconds it doesn't matter if you're fumbling with the ball either it's 35 seconds and that's it here we go victory takes it 2 victory off balance no good and we are going to overtime again here for the SCAL championship Santa Cruz 63 Aptos 63 you've got your money's worth if you've come out here to Aptos for your watching at home it's the game of the week and we'll take a break and be back after there 63 63 here on SCAL boys varsity championship Aptos 63 Santa Cruz 63 just 32 minutes stay alive not enough we've got four more overtime along with Kurt Edwards Rusty Reed the third member of our broadcast crew I'm Tim Swartz we thank you for joining us all season long for basketball season we've had a pair of gems the girls championship was won by Santa Cruz and overtime and here we are in overtime for the boys this one is to the Santa Cruz Cardinals I would say it's a good thing we got a barn burner and we're in this new gym here at Aptos the old one would probably have been in flames by now or burnt down great job by St. John's coming through the key you see his arms out of stretch asking for the ball big strong young man gets in good position foul is called he's going to go to the free throw line St. John will have two double bonus takes a long time at the free throw line and he missed the first one maybe he's taught about it a little bit too much sometimes things dangerous in sports second for St. John important for Aptos to screen off on all of their only three throws and he missed the first one short the second one long Montoya crosses the timeline 63 all 335 remaining in overtime Aptos trail most of this game but victory in a late 3 to tie this one up with 39 seconds remaining victory drives right baseline the off balance shot he was fouled by Hodges I'm watching Danny as he plays this game with reckless abandon whether he knew he was going to get fouled by Hodges or not he came in and he just threw that ball up Harold doing a nice job there's out there and Harold actually does a good job of coming back in and not so much of a moving but he backs everybody up victory makes the first one Aptos draws first blood victory with 19 after that shot make it still 19 Harold had the rebound he ripped it away from Conroy Conroy steals it back and this game has been a hard fought game Conroy down the lane over Montoya is no good the rebound for a moment went to Martin it's still loose jump ball jump ball going Aptos his way with Santa Cruz Cardinals the outright SCCO regular season champions they're the one seed see the all important possession arrow and it always switches after the ball is inbounded second seeded Aptos here at home last year's champion was Santa Cruz over Aptos Harold through the lane rolls that one off the backboard six sixty three the first three point lead for Aptos since the start of this one really it's the first quarter Conroy pulls up swings right side Hodges has already hit three threes doesn't take it through the lane way off balance and a foul called against Aptos Aptos gets that foul Santa Cruz continues to attack the middle Hodges goes down there runs right into Montoya the three threes are alive Harold continues to just impress me third personal against him Hodges makes the first Hodges you had seven points in the fourth quarter hopes to come up big with these two free throws hit it out with a second and Santa Cruz in overtime is just one for fourth the free throw line they trail by two to Aptos two thirty overtime Aptos can't lose the pace but they can sure delay that shot of course he's in the hands of Danny Victory he can shoot it from mid court he's already had a couple of shots from twenty five feet away victory floats this one through the lane gets the roll so quick is victory you turn one way on him you give him in the lane he's going to take it Hodges hesitations dribble drive short Conroy floats it in Hodges almost forced to turn over substitution Yabi Abraham comes in for Chris Martin giving up a little bit of size maybe just a little bit more quickness is Kostam Hof and they're going to put Abraham on victory he's grabbing him in the back court and it'll be the one and one for Danny Victory and Martin coming right back in for Abraham I think Abraham was just brought in for a minor purpose and it could be just to admit that foul the run end is a big one victory has been huge the smallest player to play for either team at five six but he stood tall with twenty two points and the second that's the first two possession lead for Aptos since early in the first quarter Hodges asking for a clear out Aptos being tenacious with the defense Dakota knocks the ball out of play one fifty remaining seventy sixty six Aptos in the one and one bonus Santa Cruz in the double bonus possession arrow is pointing to Santa Cruz thanks for joining us here on our CTV game of the week St. John a little careless with the ball he's lost for a moment resets the Hodges with fifteen on the shot clock still a lot of time no sense for panicking but Santa Cruz has got to get a handle on that suitcase Aptos pushing a farther and farther out under just throws that one towards the basket St. John collection makes a play and lays it good that young man continues to impress me not only on the football field but especially here on the basketball court victory up the floor swings right side for Harrell tosses up top well backdoor cut and a traveling oh big turnover huge turnover by Aptos they had a golden opportunity to score as DeMail made a rush to try to get the ball yep he hesitates you lose I don't care where you're at minute remaining two point lead for Aptos the second seeded Mariners trying to upset the first seeded Santa Cruz Cardinals left wing dishes right side Hodges hit some big shots tonight Lane off balance in and out but he'll get his own rebound wide open for the lead short Montoya flight to the rebound DeMail's on the floor timeout called for by Bill Domhoff 39.2 seconds remaining 10 seconds shot clock game clock differential great timeout call by Bill Domhoff you don't know what's going to happen DeMail's got the ball on the deck he's got control of it timeout call rally before something horrible can happen just look rather familiar he got 29 on the shot clock and 39 on the game clock regulation ended with a 39 seconds remaining on the clock Santa Cruz had the ball the fresh shot clock never got a ball to even hit the rim it was an off balance three that was on the other side Aptos never got a good look at the basket in the last four and a half seconds of the game you see Joey Smith you see the fans the thumbs up this one is a game that thinks going to make a lot of people understand SCAL basketball fans still three timeouts remaining for Santa Cruz just one for Aptos teams break the huddle it's Dakota Montoya Carol Welley and victory for Aptos DeMail Conroy Martin St. John and Hodges are the five for the Cardinals a lot of time as Santa Cruz can get in a rotation big men working underneath there comes Martin off balance no good Conroy's second effort ball is loose and a jump ball possession is pointed to Santa Cruz shot clock will be dead 25 seconds left 70 to 68 Mariners lead the Cardinals now remember Santa Cruz just needs two and if they get three to get up by one fantastic but they're just looking for right now for a basket a good percentage look Aptos played Soquel the other night for Aptos to get here same type of a situation Aptos was up by three Soquel had two good looks but was not able to get it in the bucket so actively you know for defense Aptos has to be actively hands up moving their feet stay in good defensive position good athletic position shot clock is dead 25 seconds left position has switched to the Aptos Mariners which has been key in overtime already two tie ups and by winning the tip Santa Cruz has won an extra possession Conroy all alone lays a good it'll be the final shot for Aptos they play it right Joey Smith that has hurt him the other his team motion offense 12 seconds left overtime number one 70 all everybody's got to know where the defendant where their offense is he's saying go victory step back rejected by Hodges is not even close and we're going overtime number two we will keep it here 70 all huge defensive play by Hodges you can settle he watched him settle pretty much the way he played cornerback through the football team sat back read look waited for victory was going to be outside of his range I think but you know I don't think victory knows what his range is I think he knew too that victories had his go to moves with the step back jumper as well Hodges not given any quarter keeps that hand up there's that step back that step back and Hodges is so quick he was able to go forward but Tim in this one Hodges didn't lunge forward he stepped forward in good athletic position and then was able to go up and block that shot had he lunged he may have been off balance and then collided with victory and that would have sent victory to the free throw line and we'll take another look at the loose change picked up by Conroy who tied up this one he just got lost in the exchange on that one victory was looking someplace else nice little bounce pass inside by Hodges Conroy had the presence of mind to know exactly where he was and the basket was packed house here at Aptos High School not any all we will go to overtime number two why not we're not doing anything else tonight well I'm not I don't know anywhere else you'd rather be in Santa Cruz County tonight than the Aptos gym and anybody who's come for both games it's been a long day and a great day of basketball is the girls game if you didn't get to check that one out was a victory to 56 in overtime for Santa Cruz opening tip of the second overtime once again goes to the Cardinals and we are in overtime number two Martin pulls up the free throw line off balance it's no good that one is knocked out of bounds by Conroy Martin really nor shot put that shot then getting a nice little rhythm using his wrist and just flipping it up wrist and forearm more of a push and you can see that ball come out of his hand they're awfully hard Secota up the court back to victory right side for Montoya Harold bounces it victory open three can't get it to roll in Martin cleans up the glass for the Cardinals you want him in you want big number 32 in there so he can do that he's got great timing on his leaping ability Hodges throws this one up from 10 feet away to Mayo knocks the rebound up top extra man open St. John will take it himself bounces that one off the back would have no good victory works it in transition Montoya goes up strong his shot's no good victory gives up the open three 15th foot pull up is in good decision by victory he had Conroy running right at him little head fake Conroy right on by three takes it back on no good and Hodges had the rebound but it was not the way from him by victory Santa Cruz is getting some open looks I'd like to see him a little bit higher percentage shots just not right they're not in shooting rhythm right now 72 70 the lead for Aptos in overtime number two victory as he fell down just threw that one up in the air locking foul is going to be called one Jonah Hodges victory fakes a little bit Hodges going with him there was body contact and I'll tell you victory sneakers is blew out from underneath and he's slid right on down victory this is the front end of the one and one Hodges is on the floor with five fouls yep that's what I thought that's what Joey Smith's screaming about he's yelling about it I didn't know the score the official scores table should have had at least informed the referee as to how many fouls a player has especially if it's the fifth foul I have to talk this one over because if you're on the floor with five fouls it's a technical foul you're right and I think the discussion here is Tom Smith is a head official you see here right was talking with Bill Domhoff now the substitutions and they should have not been shooting the free throws if you see victory they shouldn't have been shooting the free throws if that ball was on the floor yes he was talking to the official Smith about the substitution there was a couple of different errors that just transferred they just went through the gym here at Aftos High School for Joey Smith if I'm him and there should be two there's two different scenarios here it's either you shoot the free throws or it's a technical foul there's not another conclusion he's still cleating his case referee is I don't know if he sued Coach Smith or not but the discussion is done Sahaj has fouled out wow Levy Richards will come in for him they don't lose too much quickness with Richards with the basketball he's just as quick as Hodges without Hodges who's running the point looks like this offense is a little stagnant with 15 on the shot clock well Hodges had them in some kind of a rhythm there's DeMail who's going to have to do something with 9 on the shot clock Levy Richards tries to create over victory big bucket tie ball game the victory says yes but I have the basketball you cannot lose your feet with victory if he makes a head fake you've got to stay on the ground Cicoto is fouled as he went to the hoop that was a nice first step by Cicoto to get around Salmon first personal going to go to the line for a one and one here's some of the bigger free throws for this young player's career Cicoto does not have a point so far in the game Bill Domhoff and Tom Smith have many conversations throughout the evening front and miss by Cicoto 72 all 120 remaining I'll tell you who else is in foul trouble for Santa Cruz and that's Conroy number 11 he has four fouls so right now you have to play like you have zero fouls trying to get the ball down inside to either St. John's who now has it or Conroy St. John to the lane way strong second effort no good Salmon from behind with Salmon great job by the Santa Cruz to get inside on the rebounding position to get inside the ATTAS Mariners on the rebounding position big free throws for Sanitz he's got two short arms the first Salmon looking for his first point and boy would it be a nice big first point Ryan Parker who's a three point gunner will come into the game and he will replace Cicoto Joey Smith doing the smart thing get the shooters on the floor Montoya Parker obviously victory and Harold could all shoot the rock victory I think you might be just a little bit too quick for St. John and ATTAS calls the time out Joey Smith wisely does this looks at the defense it's on the floor what type of defense they're running calls the time out as you can diagram a play that may get ATTAS a couple of points the game has been a wild game over time number two there have been technical fouls there have been at least three or four times where Kurt and I wish we brought our rule books some strange rulings here's when Sam was able to keep the play alive Balls I've got good second effort by St. John he went in but he's not to be denied he could see he shot the ball but then went tracking after it so many times Tim not so much underneath but a shooter will shoot the ball and not bother going with it there's Domhoff right there just wicked game here we mentioned Pete Newell Jr had some old time battles with ATTAS himself he's got a treasure chest of victories and a treasure chest of losses he's in the house not going to challenge the ball great switch up from Bill Domhoff victory we're going to let him go one on one with St. John plenty of time just jump pad across Santa Cruz gardener two second shot clock game clock differential Balls lost he has fouled ATTAS with two free throws victory is three points it was from somewhere around 30 feet you know what when you're feeling the rhythm and you're coming down your eyes will cast never know what you're going to catch and you see the three point line that is a good seven feet behind it so we'll give them a 26-6 split the difference pivotal free throws from Harrell with 25.4 left misses the first that keeps Santa Cruz alive Bill Domhoff calling for a timeout it's basically come down on a make or on a miss this is what we're going to do that's a big free throw miss if you want to check out this game again DVD sales, DVD copies available for 25 dollars we had a one overtime game in the first time out for the Santa Cruz girls championship game over Stokell we've got a double overtime game here so you want to check this one out, there's the information 8-3-1-4-2-5-8-8-4-8 possession arrow is pointing the way of aptos but let's say that's a huge miss because if you're up by four that means at some point Santa Cruz either needs a steal or they need to hit a three as long as you hit your free throws they're going to have to get that one and if you do hit both of them you're up by four and it still has you one behind so it's a steal or a foul on top of that a lot of strategy goes on here the last minute of play regulation of overtime we've seen a lot of strategy here tonight both in the girls that was won by Santa Cruz 60-56 and now here are the boys big free throw for the big time 6-3 senior 73 aptos fans going crazy Conroy loses this ball he just throws it for the tie Levi Richards is short rebound tipping around it's out of bounds to aptos no discussion it's not going to work see how tight the press Santa Cruz is going to have to put one on Carroll was fouled just before he got rid of it to victory take with 12 seconds left both free throws will put this one on ice I'm not going to argue that one up by three, maybe up by five that's nothing insurmountable but that would be the closest thing to it two for Carroll out to a two possession game and the aptos fans are going nuts unofficially 18 points for Carroll unofficially 27 points for victory here comes Levi Richards leaping Lena not going to be there bodies all over the place and the foul is called aptos fans rise as one Danny victory is going to take home an SCCAL championship just got to hit a couple free throws it's 5.3 left this is the first one never is easy is it two feet away ball half the size of the basket 963 Levi Richards, St. John wide open three got it timeout was called and the far side efficiency was a 1.1 second Santa Cruz called the timeout 79-76 if you look at these fans they'll look at the St. John 3 again but a lot of people always say Santa Cruz tournaments who care doesn't mean much there's still got CCS I don't know about that one this tournament means a lot to both of these squads Santa Cruz as we saw on the records of the teams they ended up on top in the league when all was all said and done here's victory says you're going to give it to me I'll take it nylon nothing but if you get into this tournament there's a lot of pride in the SCCA with these ball clubs Santa Cruz wanted the championship by winning the league and then winning the SCCA postseason tournaments Aptos said no we don't want you to do it in our backyard we want to be considered co-champions if you will right now with 1.1 seconds to go and a three-point lead Aptos looks like they're going to do it thank you for joining us all season long Aptos TV sports will have the wrestling championships hopefully half as much excitement in those ones just got to inbound the ball it is to Harold Aptos Mariners champions of the SCCAL a hard fought 79-76 victory over Santa Cruz in double OT tremendous game both of these teams came in and played hard a quick little shout up and a special thanks to the athletic director Mark Domhoff the athletic director here at Aptos high school for hosting this fantastic set up basketball games what a great double header in a packed house just outstanding pair of basketball games here we will send it to Rusty Reed in a few moments who has our player the game we could go co-players of the game I mean a lot of guys that are up for this one tonight but I think two guys stood above the rest Harold and victory those would be my selections they did a fantastic job Harold with unofficially 27 points nothing better bigger than that big three from somewhere in the vicinity of the football field when he shot that one up there and Jake doing such a good job on the boards defensively blocking shots and of course scoring unofficially for 18 points so two deserving ballplayers and contest it was well you know I'm gonna say it was well played because both these teams were going flat out and it was nothing not left on the floor for both these teams you see the court is scattered people everywhere a big victory for the champion Aptos Mariners in the Aptos Mariners player of the game is standing by Witt Rusty Reed our George H.

Cruz in overtime and this boys game double overtime in favor of the Aptos marriage with Kurt Edwards I'm Tim Swartz and like basketball you love this this is this great high school basketball you couldn't have dialed it up any better two teams that really knew each other similar styles tremendous athleticism and to go for periods and then go two more great way to end the season here in the SEC AL that was a full 40 minutes of basketball let's take a look at some of the picture of this one and the story Danny victory hitting threes good ball moving by the Aptos Mariners victory gave it up didn't get that three but you watch how Aptos continues to work around Cole right in there just gets that shot now watch the battle going inside Jonah Hodges fighting for it Harold gets it well he almost gets it Parker says I got a nice spot of three out drilling that was a good big three cut it to a two point lead in the third Jonah Hodges going very well nice assist down there the Conroy Conroy had a big game for Santa Cruz as did number 20 Jonah Hodges from three point that was a big three point for young Mr. Hodges there's a man that I always like to watch because not only can he score but he dishes the ball off very well that bucket by Dimeo as one of those long bombs victory that was just off but Harold kept it alive Harold victory is a two headed monster we had Harold with 18 victory with 27 Martin using his body and good angle going down there for that nice easy layup there's Harold again they forgot where victory was they did it there was a screen a double switch victory made him pay for it nice little crossover down the lane he goes little bitty tear drop and then he bugs somebody forgot about Conroy on the other red and he gets a nice easy bucket and here comes the death nail that was a big bow one of six three point shots that at least that I have for victory six three point shots for victory on the night quite a large you can count that well I can count to seven but I can't figure out where my other fingers all went that three from victory was a one point lead at that point less than a minute left for Santa Cruz that three made it a 75 73 game free throws made by at the end that did it aptos was victorious 79 to 76 here at aptos high school any final thoughts to the end of the season for both these clubs they'll find out where their seedings are with everybody's watching this game the CCS we anticipate that both these squads will get some high seedings in their respective decisions a lot of fun and of course the girls game Santa Cruz came in they had to beat soquel soquel came in number one Santa Cruz came out on top 60 to 56 in a very exciting overtime game on that one just a fun night of basketball Tim so we had the eight quarters plus three extra quarters here at aptos high school best of luck to aptos and Santa Cruz and all the SCAL teams as they prepare this week for the Central Coast section playoffs for Kurt
