On the boys’ court, Ocean View High will be the site of one of Orange

Monday, 12 teams will compete in a round-robin format, each attempting to

land a spot in the Dec. 9 final.

Besides the host Seahawks, schools competing include defending

tournament champion Mater Dei, Compton, Pasadena, Centennial (Compton),

Cajon, Ontario, Morningside, Perris, Serra, Redondo Union and Santa

Barbara.

In girls’ tournament play, Fountain Valley High will host the Lady

Baron Hoop Challenge on Monday through Dec. 9.

The eight-team field includes host Fountain Valley, Ocean View, Mater

Dei, Century, Calvary Chapel, Riverside Poly, Murrieta Valley and

Woodbridge. Last year’s champion, Irvine, is not competing.
