Sophomore guard Danny Berryman scored six of his 15 points in the last two minutes to help unbeaten Moorpark College secure a 72-68 victory Saturday night over winless West Los Angeles College.
The loss dropped the visiting Oilers’ record to 0-6 and extended their losing streak to 23 games, dating back to last December.
With Moorpark leading, 66-63, Berryman tipped in a rebound of Stephan Lord’s missed shot with 2:13 left in the game, then stole the ball on West L.A.’s next possession, converted a layup and sank two free throws seconds later to give Moorpark (4-0) a 72-63 advantage.
Moorpark’s Steve Abraham hit a 55-footer at the buzzer to give the Raiders a 39-36 halftime lead.
Valley 71, L.A. City 70--Forward John Windham scored on a four-foot jump shot with 46 seconds remaining to secure the win.
Guard Anthony Stephens led Valley scorers with 16 points, 12 in the second half. LACC (1-2) threatened to run away from the Monarchs late in the game, scoring seven unanswered points for a 68-61 lead with four minutes left.
But Valley (3-2) used a full-court press to force three turnovers in the last minute.
Santa Barbara City 82, Canyons 70--Santa Barbara (4-2) jumped to a 35-28 halftime lead and never looked back. James Mixon of Canyons (0-2) led all scorers with 21 points.
