Girls hoops: Harbor runs out, loses

COSTA MESA - Things were looking good for Newport Harbor High’s

girls basketball team at halftime of a consolation matchup with Fountain

Valley in the Costa Mesa Winter Classic Saturday. But, everything went

bad in the second half as the Sailors were outscored, 37-13, and lost

50-33.

Junior Evita Castillo paced Harbor (2-11) with 15 points and freshman

Jillianne Whitfield added six.

The Tars will try to grab their third win of the season as they host

Santa Margarita Wednesday.
