After having lost a blowout in their previous game against Mission Oak, the Hanford Bullpups were happy to have found some success on Friday. They snuck past Lemoore with a 58-53 win. Given Hanford's advantage in MaxPreps' California basketball rankings (they are ranked 439th, while Lemoore is ranked 887th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

That makes it four consecutive games in which she has scored at least a third of Hanford's points. The team also got some help courtesy of Jaaylah Capers, who almost dropped a double-double on 12 points and nine rebounds.
