Boys' basketball: Taft 36, Westchester 28 at halftime

Taft is on the verge of winning its third City section championship with a 36-28 halftime lead against Westchester at Galen Center.

Taft trailed 10-6 early but went on a 13-1 run to take control.

The game settled in and Taft's size has been too much for the Comets.

If Taft hangs on, it will be the Toreadors first victory in the playoffs against Westchester.

Taft won City titles in 2004 and 2008 against Fairfax and lost in the championship game against Westchester in 2006, 2009 and 2010
