Santa Ana was much too good for East LA, winning a consolation semifinal, 68-48. SGs Jesus Miranda and Chris Moses tied for game honors with 16 pts each. Ctr Michael Garcia led East LA with 12 pts.
L East LA led 16-10 midway through the first half, largely on the strength of 5 3-pointers (3 by SG Jorge Sotomayor, 2 by PG Andrew Gomez). But once the 3-pointers stopped falling, East LA had trouble scoring. Santa Ana got a big spark from PF Ian Parks, who ended up with just 6 pts but also 9 rebs and 6 blocks. He and Fwd Deandre Williams' (12 pts, 8 rebs) spurred the Dons to a 30-22 lead at the half, and Santa Ana cruised from there.
