Santa Clara’s transition game was too much for Bishop Diego, as the Saints raced to a 61-15 girls basketball win in a Tri-Valley League game in Oxnard on Tuesday night.
“We struggled shooting the ball and getting back on transition defense,” said Bishop coach Jeff Burich. “We did a good job breaking their press but we weren’t patient enough on offense and we need to do a better job of getting back on defense.”
Santa Clara is ranked second in CIF Division 5AA.
Kylie Koeper scored nine points to lead Bishop Diego (7-9, 0-1).
The Cardinals are home Thursday night against St. Bonaventure.
