Grant High senior forward Dashaun Gains had 29 points to lead the Lancers to their second consecutive City Section Division I boys' basketball title.
For the second year in a row, Van Nuys Grant won the City Section Division I boys’ basketball title, and once again the Lancers did it by upsetting a No. 1 seed from the Western League.
Gains poured in 29 points for Grant, which led 32-27 at halftime, 44-42 after three quarters and gradually increased its advantage throughout a frenzied fourth quarter, answering every Venice run with one of its own Saturday afternoon at Pasadena City College.
