WHITTIER – La Mirada High School opened its boys basketball season in superb fashion Wednesday by defeating La Serna 72-44 in a nonleague game.

Taelin Webb scored 30 points to pace the visiting Matadores (1-0), who held the lead from start to finish.

“We’re excited about this season,” La Mirada coach Bryce Jones said. “We return a lot of guys who can play. We’re very deep.

“We just want to play faster than we did last year but be tough to score on. It’s a good start for us. If we could rebound and play fast, we’ll beat a lot of teams. I thought we were the more aggressive team (on Wednesday).”
