Girls basketball: Newport routs San Pedro, 50-23

MISSION VIEJO - Senior forward Evita Castillo scored 15 points and

grabbed 12 rebounds (seven offensive) as Newport Harbor High’s girls

basketball team defeated San Pedro, 50-23, in a consolation game Saturday

in the Mission Viejo Tournament.

The Sailors (2-10) led from beginning to end, outscoring San Pedro in

every quarter.

“Everyone as a team played tremendous,” Newport Harbor Coach Jen

Thompson said. “We played four quarters. We talked to each other and

Evita made sure everyone was in the right place on the press and on

defense. We communicated very well, ran the offense well and it was an

all-around great team effort.”

Junior Lindsey Woller added eight points and eight rebounds for the

Sailors, while Jillianne Whitfield had eight points and seven rebounds,

Amanda Campbell six boards and Athena Vasquez four steals.
