\u201cThe defense keyed the victory,\u201d Laguna Hills Coach Jim Martin said Wednesday. \u201cLena Goodman headed up the effort and helped hold Schurr\u2019s star guard Valerie Sepulveda to nine points. Schurr did not score double digits in any quarter. Keira McDermott got us off to a good start with a couple of early threes. Cameron McDermott just missed a double double. A good team win.\u201d<\/p>\n
Laguna Hills has been to the state final twice, winning in 1997. The Hawks were the runner-ups in 2012, Martin said.<\/p>\n
