Periolat took center stage while Jessica Trippet, a Times Orange County first-team selection last season, sat out the first two games of the Cypress basketball tournament for disciplinary reasons. Periolat earned tournament MVP honors by averaging 15 points and five assists in four games. In the quarterfinals, Periolat, scored 20 points in a 78-47 victory over Savanna before Trippet returned for the semifinal and final. “Aimee stepped it up when she had to,” Marina Coach Pete Bonny said. “This was a solid tournament for us.” Periolat, a second-team All-Sunset League selection last season, scored 14 points--13 in the first half--to lead Marina to a 62-43 victory over Los Alamitos in the championship game. The Vikings opened their season with a two-game tournament in Oregon where they lost to Eugene, 74-59. Marina also lost to Oregon City, 71-44. “So far we’re unbeaten in California,” Bonny said.
