LA VERNE, CA – A showdown between two of the best guards in California could be on tap during the final contest of the eight-game “Southern California Shootout” at Damien High Saturday.

In 7:30 finale, the Damien Spartans (17-3 before their Friday night Baseline League game with Rancho Cucamonga) face the Los Altos Conquistadors (17-2 going into their Friday Hacienda League game with West Covina)

Damien is led by senior Cameron Shelton (PICTURED), a left hander who signed with Northern Arizona University in November while Los Altos is paced by 6-foot-3 junior Jarod Lucas, who was the Most Outstanding Player while leading his team to the Gold Division title during the Dec. 26-30 Classic at Damien.

They’re likely to be guarding each other at times when both either or both are in man-to-man defenses.

The games get underway at 9 in the morning when Glendora faces Flintridge Prep.

The complete schedule:

9 a.m., Glendora vs. Flintridge Prep; 10:30, Rowland vs. Walnut; noon, San Marino vs. San Dimas; 1:30, Riverside Poly vs. La Canada; 3, Bonita vs. Charter Oak; 4:30, Colony vs. Diamond Bar; 6, Etiwanda vs. Corona del Mar; 7:30, Damien vs. Los Altos.

I’ve known Frank for at least 35 years and have the utmost respect for his writing as well as his understanding of, and insight into, basketball. His ability to evaluate basketball prospects is almost impeccable. Most coaches and scouts watch a player and can tell you how good he is NOW. What separates Frank from the others is that he can watch the same player and tell you how good he can be two or three years down the line.
