ATHLETES OF THE WEEK

Tony Bryant

Villa Park, Basketball

Although teammate Matt MacGinnis averaged 19 points in four games to help the Spartans win the Anaheim

Holiday Classic last week at the Anaheim Convention Center, Bryant, the starting point guard, earned tournament MVP honors. Bryant had nine points in a 56-45 victory over San Clemente in the final and had 18 points in a 59-40 victory over Esperanza in the semifinals.

* Steve Henderson

Edison, Basketball

Tournament MVP had 25 points in final to help Edison defeat host Orlando (Fla.) Lake Highland, 57-55.

* Andy Lawrence

University, Basketball

Tournament MVP led Trojans to their first Irvine World News tournament championship.

Brandi Davis

Sonora, Basketball

Sonora had to play the final two games of the Mission Viejo tournament without Mindy Clark, its 6-foot-4 Fresno State-bound center. Since Clark was attending her

brother’s wedding, Davis, a 5-10 junior guard, picked up the slack. She earned MVP honors, scoring 28 points, including three three-pointers, in a 58-46 victory over Estancia in the championship game.

* Monika Jackley

Valencia, Basketball

Jackley scored 47 points in one game and six of her 14 points in overtime of a 59-52 victory over El Dorado.

* Amber Stachowski

Capistrano Valley, Water Polo

Scored two goals, including two in overtime, to help the Cougars defeat Irvine in sudden death, 9-8.
