Boys' basketball: Price upsets Gardena Serra, 73-66

Third-seeded Los Angeles Price upset top-seeded Gardena Serra, 73-66, in their Southern California Regional final on Saturday at Ontario Colony High.

Price, which led by as many as 14 points, saw their lead diminish to three points in the fourth quarter at 64-61 with just under four minutes remaining after Daddy Ugbede made a jumper.

But Price immediately took care of business on the other end -- Skylar Spencer made a dunk and Trey Dickerson converted a layup on consecutive possessions.

Garden Serra was never able to complete a comeback. 

The Knights were led by Khalil Johnson, who had 26 points and 10 rebounds. Spencer had 15 points and JaQuan Green added 14 points.

Dakarai Tucker had 19 points and nine rebounds for the Cavaliers. Kajon Mack and Ugbede each added 18 points.

With the win, Price improved to 26-8. The Knights, who won a state championship in 2010, will compete for another title in Sacramento on Friday at 1:30 p.m. against Richmond Salesian.

Gardena Serra finished its season with a record of 31-3.

Los Angeles Price led by as many as 11 points in the third quarter but Gardena Serra went on a 6-0 run to reduce the deficit to four points at 46-42 with about four minutes remaining in the quarter.

Price responded by picking up their defense and quickly regained a double-digit lead.

But Jeremy Wright closed the quarter with a three-point play for Gardena Serra after he was fouled on a jumper and made the free throw. Daddy Ugbede then made a putback layup in the final seconds to make it a five-point game.

Price leads Gardena Serra, 56-51, heading into the fourth quarter of the teams' Southern California Regional final at Ontario Colony High.
