Ayala, Cajon, Miller move up

Two area teams have moved up in the calhisports.com state girls basketball rankings and one leaps into the Top 20.

Cajon (27-3) improves from No. 12 to No. 11 following its victories last week over Alhambra Keppel and Perris. Coach Mark Lehman's team got 27 points from Layshia Clarendon and 17 points and 16 rebounds from Darshae Burnside against Perris. Cajon meets Ayala in the CIF-SS finals on either Friday or Saturday at the Pyramid in Long Beach. Ayala defeated Cajon 47-46 in November.

Ayala (27-4) jumps from un-ranked to No. 19 after CIF-SS victories last week against Vista Murrieta and Palmdale Knight. Rebekah Gardner led the Bulldogs by combining for 46 points in the two victories.
