Oakland Tech allows only 12 second-half points in the ‘doghouse,’ will play San Ramon Valley in the semifinal
OAKLAND – After winning the 2022 Division III state championship last March, Oakland Tech’s girls basketball coach Leroy Hurt sat in the winner’s press conference and told the room “We’re a D-I school, we should be with the D-I teams.”
Oakland Tech beat McClatchy-Sacramento 62-50 in the first round on Tuesday, and up next is a Saturday home game against San Ramon Valley, a team Tech defeated 70-45 in early January.OAKLAND – Oakland Tech player Erin Sellers celebrates after Jada Williams makes a basket. Pinewood and Oakland Tech played in the high school girls basketball game in the NorCal Division I playoffs at Oakland Tech high school in Oakland, Calif. on Thursday, Mar.
“We couldn’t run our sets with any degree of fluidity or polish, because their defense had us well-scouted,” Pinewood coach Doc Scheppler said. “We call it the ‘doghouse’ for a reason,” senior guard Mari Somvichian said concerning the standing-room-only crowd. “We feel like the whole town is supporting us.”
Erin Sellers and Jada Williams each scored 11 for Tech, Jala Williams scored 10 points, and Taliyah Logwood scored eight. Pinewood’s Uhrich scored 18 points and made four three-pointers.
