If you live west of the 405 in Orange County and have the price of admission, attend and support our Lady Cavs. If you have yet to send an envelope in with some $ in it this year, bring a check and save a stamp. There will be an elderly Alumnus in a white Serra cap to graciously accept your gift.
If you weren't there, I don't think it was planned for anyone to learn about this game. Pat Lynch '59, our lead correspondent, was ill and could not deliver his usual stellar report. The Daily Breeze gave us nothing but the score. The Gardena Valley News will have a good story on Thursday. Here is the box score.
Serra 21 14 14 7 56
