The Bishop\u2019s School girls basketball probably felt good and bad about facing Mater Dei Catholic in last weekend\u2019s Division IV championship at Cal State Fullerton. On the plus side, Bishop\u2019s (31-3) had beaten the Lady Crusaders in the CIF title game only a week earlier. On the bad side, you know what they say about having to beat the same opponent more than once in a season. Mater Dei hung onto a fourth-quarter lead and upset Bishop\u2019s 54-51, ending the season for the Lady Knights while moving themselves into the state final against Modesto Christian. Down 50-43, Bishop\u2019s went on an 8-2 run to pull within 52-51 on Inga Orekhova\u2019s 3-pointer, but Jhazmine Lynch nailed a pair of free throws with 20.6 seconds left to make it 54-51. Orekhova, who is headed to play at Northwestern University, saw her final 3-point attempt clang the rim as time expired and, with it, end the season for the Lady Knights. Orekhova led all scorers with 17 points, while teammate Gizelle Studevent, who will continue on at Penn State, finished with 15. In the semifinals last Thursday, Bishop\u2019s posted a 48-45 victory over L.A. Pacific Hills. Studevent paced Bishop\u2019s with 21 points, with Orekhova adding 14. On the boys side, The Bishop\u2019s School (26-4) saw its season end last week with a 45-43 loss to Inglewood Morningside in a first-round Southern California regional contest in La Jolla. Elsewhere, La Jolla High School\u2019s great run to the playoffs also ended last week in a 60-46 home loss to Anaheim Canyon. Taylor Davis paced La Jolla (17-15) with 10 points. **** In the CIF soccer playoffs, La Jolla High saw its dream of a Southern California Regional Division II crown end last Saturday in a 1-0 loss to top-seeded Harvard-Westlake of North Hollywood. La Jolla finished an outstanding season at 17-4-2, a season that included a CIF championship. The CIF crown was the team\u2019s first in nearly a decade. In the Division II semifinals last Thursday, La Jolla posted a 1-0 win (penalty kicks 5-4) over Victor Valley Granite Hills. Elsewhere, The Bishop\u2019s School fell in the semifinals of Division IV with a 2-1 loss to Lancaster Desert Christian.
