By Brandon HENSLEY If you watched the Crescenta Valley High School alumni basketball game this year and thought the “old” guys didn’t seem as old, that’s because they weren’t. Infused with a shot of youthful energy, the CV alumni defeated the Falcons varsity team 83-72 on Nov. 22, in the annual day-before-Thanksgiving game that serves […]
By Brandon HENSLEY Maybe the Crescenta Valley High boys’ varsity basketball team would have advanced further in the CIF playoffs this season than it did if several key members did not fall ill in the days leading up to their matchup against Quartz Hill. But they did, providing a sluggish effort all game, and the […]
Falcon Kilgour and Nitro Anderson both nail career highs in Tuesday’s contest. By Robin GOLDSWORTHY Glendale had a moment in the sun as the point leader in the first few minutes of the varsity basketball game against CV on Tuesday night. Three-and-a-half minutes into it, they were eight to CV’s six. But unfortunately for the […]
By Robin GOLDSWORTHY It’s tough to beat Pasadena varsity basketball (10-0-0 league) and the Falcons were reminded why on Tuesday night.

The Falcons hit the boards after a victorious win last Friday over rival Arcadia that filled the Apache gym to the rafters with fans. The Falcons […]
By Brandon HENSLEY What a difference a week makes. The Falcons boys’ varsity basketball team continued to put its ugly loss to Pasadena last week further behind them by defeating two more Pacific League foes on the road. First Muir went down to the mighty Falcons on Friday and then on Tuesday the Glendale Nitros […]
By Brandon HENSLEY Maybe this one should have been played with peach baskets. It was retro kind of game Wednesday night at CV High, as the Falcons and Pasadena Bulldogs boys basketball team met in a matchup of unbeaten Pacific League teams. The Falcons are unbeaten in league no more, though, as senior guard Todd […]
By Seth AMITIN Suffice to say Crescenta Valley has found the San Fernando Invitational a challenging tournament. The Crescenta Valley boys’ basketball team played three games this week in the Invite, beating Los Angeles University High with ease, 65-50, on Monday, getting steam-rolled by West Ranch, 73-55, on Tuesday and then returning the favor to […]
