No. 2 Valley Women Play Host to Citrus in Basketball Playoffs
As far as Jim Stephens is concerned, the Valley College women’s basketball team is right where it deserves to be as it plays host to Citrus at 7 tonight in the Southern California regional playoffs.
The Monarchs (22-4), who shared the Southern California Conference title with Trade-Tech, are seeded No. 2 in the 16-team field behind Golden West--the only opponent they didn’t defeat this season.
If Valley beats Citrus, seeded No. 15, it would play host to the winner of tonight’s MiraCosta-Bakersfield game on Friday at 7:30 p.m.
Moorpark, runner-up in the Southern Division of the Western State Conference, visits Cerritos at 7:30 tonight in another first-round playoff game. The Raiders are seeded No. 12 in the tournament. Cerritos is seeded No. 5.
SCC co-titlist Trade-Tech is seeded fourth in the tournament ahead of WSC division winners Ventura (sixth) and Bakersfield (10th). MiraCosta is seventh.
