CdM boys basketball team captures championship at Santa Barbara Tournament

CdM players and coaches celebrate after the Sea Kings won the Santa Barbara Tournament championship.

Corona del Mar’s boys basketball team defeated Santa Barbara 50-37 Saturday night to take home the championship of the Santa Barbara Tournament.

The Sea Kings (13-5) were led by tournament MVP John Humphreys, who scored 20 points.

Jack Stone had 12 points and Jack Garza 11 points for the Sea Kings. Garza was named to the all-tournament team.

“The boys showed a lot of character this week,” said Coach Ryan Schachter. “Every game we played was hard fought, no easy wins. I’m very proud of all the players.

“We definitely won the championship because of the team effort; no one player carried us. Hopefully we can build on this momentum and carry it into the Surf League.”

CdM hosts Fountain Valley Friday night at 7.
