A special shout-out goes to the La Canada High boys basketball team, who despite overwhelming odds, took top-ranked Campbell Hall into overtime on Saturday in the CIF-SS Division III-AA finals. On press row, they were asking, "Who's this Malik guy." Adam Malik had a chance to win it in regulation, but his shot with seconds left came up short. Still, he finished with 31 points, as the Spartans fell, 61-57. And for the rest of the team, what an inspired effort, I thought I was watching Hoosiers unfold in front of my eyes.

Would have loved to see Hoffman get that one - he is such a great coach.
The spartans just never quit and played their hearts out. They are champions in my book. The've had such a great season and good luck in state.
