A High School Roundup

* From the MIJ:
The technical foul assessed to Drake High's bench late in Tuesday night's boys basketball game, a 58-57 Novato win, occurred when a Pirates trainer came onto the court to treat a player after the final horn had sounded.

The trainer had walked out in front of the team bench to tend to guard Malik Huff, Drake coach Doug Donnellan said. Moments earlier, the Pirates' Sam Dines was fouled on a a last-second put-back attempt with Drake trailing 56-55. Even though the buzzer sounded on the play, officials put 1.1 seconds back on the clock because the foul had occurred before time expired.

The referees ruled that because the Pirates' staff was on the court before game's end "without being beckoned," Novato would get two technical free throws following Drake's foul shots.

After Drake's Brandon Vergara drained two foul shots for a 57-56 lead, Andy Velasquez put the Hornets back on top with by hitting both free-throws for the final 58-57 margin.

Again from the MIJ:
The Marin Academy boys basketball team put together a big fourth quarter to rally past Lick-Wilmerding 53-45.

The Wildcats outscored Lick-Wilmerding 21-12 in the fourth to secure their first league win. Marin Academy (8-9, 1-2 BCL West) got another big scoring game from Kyle Roach — the county's leading scorer — who went for 27 against Lick (10-9, 1-2). 

"We knew we had a big gameplan to get the ball inside and move the ball around," MA coach Neil Caynan said. "Down the stretch we were just able to make that extra pass offensively."

MA - K. Roach 8 9-15 27
LW - Elan 7 1-2 18 (three treys)
