Taking on the No. 1-ranked team in California in an opening game of the Southern Section Open Division girls basketball playoffs, Sage Hill can boast that it led Ontario Christian 2-0 on Saturday night. Then came 13 consecutive points by the Knights. It got worse. Ontario Christian scored the first 18 points of the second quarter for a 24-point halftime cushion.

The top-seeded Knights (26-1) have sophomore guard Kaleena Smith, and she’s on the way to becoming a national figure in her sport. She finished with 21 points in Ontario Christian’s 68-35 victory.

Smith averaged 34.9 points as a freshman but has settled into her role getting her many talented teammates involved in the offense. Her scoring average is 23.9 but that doesn’t mean she isn’t a more complete player, showing her driving skills to go along with her three-point shooting touch. Alanna Neale had 14 points and Tatianna Griffin 13 points for the Knights. Sophomore Kamdyn Klamberg led Sage Hill with 15 points.
