CORONA, Calif. -- Corona Centennial beat Harvard-Westlake 68-48 to win their second straight Open Division crown on Friday. The Huskies became the first champion in the Southern Section Open Division pool play era to win all four of their games by at least 20 points.

“Jared hit an unbelievably huge three there to kind of break the game open,” Corona Centennial head coach Josh Giles said. “That was awesome.”

McCain finished with a game high 20 points for the Huskies. Junior big man Devin Williams added 17 and senior guard Donovan Dent scored 12.
