With a playoff win on the line, Francis Parker rose to the challenge on Tuesday. They walked away with a 51-39 win over the Westview Wolverines. Given the Lancers' advantage in MaxPreps' California basketball rankings (they are ranked 15th in California, while the Wolverines are ranked 67th in California), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Francis Parker to victory, but perhaps none more so than Brianna Mendez, who went 6-for-13 on her way to 14 points and seven boards. The team also got some help courtesy of Gigi Ong, who posted eight points along with seven assists and three steals.
