Carpinteria girls basketball dominated Hueneme en route to a 52-19 Citrus Coast League win on Friday.
The Warriors came out aggressive, knocking down shots offensively and running a full-court press on defense to jump out to a 22-4 lead after the first.
That momentum rolled over into the second quarter, where Carpinteria once again held Hueneme to just four points to take a 35-8 advantage into halftime.
Every player then saw the court in the second half to power the Warriors to the blowout win.
Amarisse Camargo fell one rebound short of a double-double with 19 points and nine rebounds. Joining her in double figures were Charlotte Cooney and Isabella Velasquez with 13 and 12 points, respectively.
Jamaica Cook got it done on the boards, collecting 11 rebounds to go with her six points.
“I was happy with our effort and focus tonight,” Carpinteria coach Henry Gonzales said. “It keeps us moving forward in a positive direction.”
The Warriors (6-4, 2-1 CCL) play host to Santa Maria next Friday.

On the pitch, Carpinteria fell to Hueneme by a score of 2-0.
It was a battle in the first half, as both squads went into the halftime locker room scoreless.
Hueneme then came out of the break with some momentum, scoring in the 47th minute to take the first lead of the night.
The Warriors then made a push to answer back, with Evelyn Lara leading the charge. However, the Hueneme defense stayed strong and prevented the equalizer.
The second and final goal of the match came in the 75th minute to add an insurance score for Hueneme.
“Our battered team played their hearts out today,” Carpinteria coach Freddy Martinez said. “A few girls played through some illness and injuries in an attempt to secure some points heading into the winter break.
“This game tested the girl’s ability to deal with adversity and I feel they proved they are a true competitor in this league.”
Heading into winter break, the Warriors have a 6-1 overall record and a 3-1 in league play. They will return to action on Dec. 30 against Oak Park.
