Ford OCC’s all-time points leader

HUNTINGTON BEACH — Orange Coast College sophomore Courtney Ford scored 19 points to become the school’s all-time scoring leader during the Pirates’ 80-25 Orange Empire Conference victory at Golden West Friday.

Coming into Friday night’s game, Ford, a 5-foot-7 guard, needed 19 points to pass Lisa Shumaker. Ford now has 1,131 points, one more than Shumaker scored 1985-87.

Ford’s effort helped the Pirates (19-3, 3-1 in conference) get back in the win column in the OEC after having its 17-conference-game winning streak snapped Wednesday, when Orange Coast lost to Fullerton, 68-56.

Against Golden West, sophomore forward Brittany Taylor scored 16 points to also contribute for the Pirates, who entered the week ranked No. 2 in Southern California and No. 5 in the state.

OCC sophomore Katie Kissee, a 5-5 guard, shot five for five from behind the three-point line and finished with 15 points. Freshman Niki Wakamiya came off the bench to add 10 points for the Pirates. Wakamiya knocked down two three-pointers.

Orange Coast will play host to Riverside Wednesday at 7:30 p.m.
