Jazmyne White: March 2009 Archives

No drama at Mater Dei tonight, as Colony has pulled away to a 69-52 lead with 1:24 left in the game. Camille Buckley is possessed, with 30 points and an unofficial 17 rebounds. Te'onna Campbell has 17 points while Jazmyne White has scored all 12 of hers in the second half.

The Titans have outscored the Cougars 34-18 in the second half and are on the verge of another CIF title.

After watching Ike defeat Loyola early this afternoon, I killed some hours at the ESPNZone at Disneyland today before venturing back to Mater Dei High School - the scene of Cajon's triumph over Long Beach Poly.

At Mater Dei today is the Division I-A final, pitting No. 1 seed Colony against No. 3 Moreno Valley Canyon Springs. The last time these schools met in a CIF final was in football in 2007, when the Titans rolled in a game marred by multiple personal fouls and police cars on the field to break up brawls. Not good times.

Don't expect an unruly repeat though. Colony, the D3-A champions a year ago, boast 6-foot-2 center Camille Buckley and the White combination of 6-0 swingman Jazmyne White and 5-7 junior guard Haley White.

Canyon Springs has sophomore Sophia Ederaine. Ederaine looks out of place repping the Chris Sabo-like Rec-Specs, but is long and athletic and can cause problems in the post. Her matchup with Buckley is a key to watch.

Tipoff to come in less than three minutes.
