Julian Garcia struck out seven, walked one and gave up three hits in five innings of a 6-0 win over JSerra. It was the fourth shutout in five games this season for the Braves (5-0). Jhett Ohira had three hits and Jaden Jackson and Noah Everly added two hits apiece.
As expected, the game went down to the final second. St. John Bosco got the ball back with an intercepted pass and called a timeout with 1.5 seconds left down one. With the ball on the baseline, the Braves made an inbound pass to Max Ellis in the key, but the shot didn't fall, and Santa Margarita hung on for a 57-56 victory.
