PLHS grad Javey helps San Diego Surf slam LA With the help of Point Loma High School (PLHS) Pointer graduate Anthony Javey, the San Diego Surf defeated the Los Angeles Slam 130-123 in an American Basketball Association (ABA) game played at Miramar College’s Hour-Glass Arena. Javey contributed 19 points to the Surf’s winning effort and was joined in the San Diego scoring column by David Kinder (29 points), Aaron Tinsley (24 points) and Dunnell Webb (23 points). The Slam came into the contest rated as one of the top 10 teams in the nationwide ABA power rankings. “Compared to our team, Los Angeles has got a ton of experience,” said Surf coach Shaun Manning.  “This time, we were able to disrupt them and take them out of what they do well.  We need to learn from every game, though.” The Slam also features five former NBA players, including ex-Los Angeles Clipper center Keith Closs, as well as Grammy Award-winning hip-hop artist “The Game.” Rock Academy falls to Foothills Christian Despite getting a team-high 15 points from Jay Dutra, The Rock Academy High Warriors boys’ basketball team suffered a 44-36 defeat by the Foothills Christian Knights in the CIF Div.
