It hasn't been the season either the Lobos or Hartnell envisioned when the year began four months ago.
Yet, closing the season with a win is a building block for next season.
Since opening the conference season with two straight wins, the Panthers have dropped nine straight, including a 97-90 loss to MPC on Jan. 25.
Hartnell has dropped four conference games by three points or less.
Having an all freshmen team this winter, the Lobos are 6-5 in conference, but just 2-3 on the road.
Marcus Wallace and Deshawnte Collins are both averaging double figures for MPC, with Wallace dropping in 12.8 points a game. Elijah Nesbit is fourth in the state in assists at 6.8 assists.
Sophomore Riley Knowles has carried the offense for Hartnell at 15.1 points a game while Alisal grad Jesus Salinas is averaging 9.2 points.
John Devine has been writing about high school sports in Monterey County since, well, practically since he was an athlete at King City in the days just after leather helmets. In PrepNation, John has even more in-depth analysis of the latest results and news he's brought to you in The Herald and in his weekly videos.
