The Crenshaw girls’ and boys’ basketball teams are excelling through the unprecedented 2020-2021 season. Both teams carry a perfect overall record, the girls at 4-0 and the boys at 3-0 overall, as of May 23.
The prowess of both teams was tested on Saturday as they faced competitive matches that kept the Cougars fighting throughout their respective contests. The girls’ basketball team survived the Pioneer Titans of Whittier with a 64-61 victory on Saturday.
“It was intense, it was very aggressive on both ends of the court,” said Crenshaw junior forward Payton Walk. “It was definitely competition.”
