Four land on list

Four members of the Laguna Beach girls’ basketball team landed on the 2008 All-Orange Coast League Girls’ Basketball Team.

Senior guards Tess Grogan and Emily LaRose were named first-team; senior forward Lauren Kelly and freshman guard Emily Writer made the second team.

Both Grogan and LaRose averaged more than 11 points per game. The two combined for 70 three-point baskets.

“Obviously, they were awesome for us all year,” Laguna Coach Jon Henrickson said. “It was a pleasure to coach them and be part of their senior year. They will be missed terribly and the underclassman have big shoes to fill both on and off the court.”

Laguna finished runner-up in the league standings.

Michelle Figueroa of league champion Costa Mesa was the league MVP.
