Glendora’s Murray Selected as Area’s Player of the Year : Boys’ team: Prestesater is named coach of the year after guiding San Dimas to 23-7 record.

San Gabriel Valley high schools enjoyed another successful boys’ basketball season that featured outstanding performances by players in every Southern Section division.

The Times 1992 San Gabriel Valley All-Star team highlights the diversity of talent that helped the area produce one Southern Section champion, a runner-up and several league and tournament champions.

The 10-player team was selected based on ballots received from area coaches, who were asked to nominate their own players and opposing players and to select a coach of the year.

Cameron Murray, a sophomore guard who helped lead Glendora to the II-AA Division championship and the regional final of the state tournament, was selected player of the year. Gary Prestesater, who guided San Dimas to a 23-7 record and the final game of the 3-A playoffs, was selected coach of the year.

The players along with their parents and coaches will be guests of The Times at an awards breakfast Sunday at the Pasadena Hilton.
