It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Hollister had no problem doing just that on Saturday. They strolled past the Leigh Longhorns with points to spare, taking the game 45-27. Given the Haybalers' advantage in MaxPreps' California basketball rankings (they are ranked 268th, while the Longhorns are ranked 550th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Despite the loss, Leigh saw an underclassman step up: sophomore Cali Wallace posted seven points along with 11 boards and four steals. Another player making a difference was Catalina Williams, who put up three points and ten rebounds.
Hollister is on a roll lately: they've won nine of their last 11 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-9 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 55.1 points over those games. Leigh has been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 12-14 record this season.
Hollister will face off against Menlo-Atherton at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Leigh does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
