DiMuro coaching couple and their daughters take aim at a pair of high school basketball titles

The Southern Section released its championship basketball schedule Monday, and Saturday’s going to be quite a day for the husband-wife coaching duo of Rob and Kelli DiMuro.

Rob coaches at Simi Valley Grace Brethren, which plays Downey St. Pius X-St. Matthias for the Division 5AA girls’ championship at 10 a.m. at Santa Ana Godinez High. His players include daughters Alexis, a freshman, and Aliya, a sophomore.

Later, Kelli will coach West Hills Chaminade against West Torrance for the Division 1 girls’ title at 6 p.m. at Azusa Pacific.

Both will be attending each other’s games and serving as unofficial advisors in the bleachers.

“We’re going to be spending a lot of gas money,” Kelli said.

As for why the daughters play for their father, Kelli said, “He’s the better recruiter.” Also, the family lives two minutes from Grace Brethren.

Another family hoping to win two titles is the brother-sister duo of Charley and Sammy Wadler.

Charley will play for Brentwood in the 2AA boys’ final against Crossroads at 2 p.m. at Azusa Pacific. Also at Azusa Pacific, Sammy will play for Brentwood in the 4AA girls’ final against Ventura Foothill Tech at noon.

“It’s awesome,” boys’ coach Ryan Bailey said.

Charley, a senior, has made nearly 90 three-point shots this season. Sammy, a freshman, has made 81. . “They both play really big roles,” Bailey said.

Doubleheader at The Pyramid: Separate admission will be charged for Friday’s Open Division boys’ and girls’ championship games at The Pyramid in Long Beach. Los Angeles Windward will play Studio City Harvard-Westlake in the girls’ final at 5 p.m., with Santa Ana Mater Dei playing Chatsworth Sierra Canyon at 8:30 p.m. in the boys’ final.

Tickets are $16 for each game, plus $8 parking.
