Carmel boys hoops

 After going 21 years without a league title, the Padres are trying to do something that has not been done in 30 years and that's five-peat as league basketball champions.
 The last program in Monterey County to win five straight league basketball titles was Palma between 1984-88, when it won two MBL titles and three MTAL titles.
 Carmel is off to a 4-0 start in the MTAL, having already beaten Pacific Grove, who shared the title with them last year.
 John Stivers has produced five straight double-doubles for the Padres while Connor Marden has got his legs under him after an extended football season.
 This is a team that plays defense and gets contributions from a difference source each night, among them being Alex Michel, who has provided a handful of big games.
 Dating back to last year, Carmel has won 11 straight league games.
