COLUSA, CA (MPG) – Colusa’s girls basketball team ran its win streak to 13-straight last week after the No. 2 seeded RedHawks downed No. 7 Yreka 52-40 in a Northern Section CIF Division IV quarterfinal game played on Feb. 20.
In a contest that was not as close as the score may appear, Colusa led from wire to wire as the visiting Miners couldn’t buy a basket in the first half.
Meanwhile, the RedHawks ran the floor well, capitalizing on turnovers and scoring in transition.
Danica Chavez scored a game-high 18 points and Peyton Miller finished with 17 points to lead Colusa, which had 10 different players break into the scoring column on the night.
With their victory, the RedHawks (22-6) took on another unfamiliar opponent this week in No. 3 Orland (22-7) in a contest played on Feb. 25 at home.
Whichever team emerged with the victory punched their ticket to the section title game on Mar. 1 at Butte College against either No. 1 University Prep or No. 4 West Valley.
