Accomplishments: Althouse combined to score 59 points and grabbed 30 rebounds in three Prep League road games this week. Prep started with a 68-55 win at Firebaugh on Tuesday. The next night, first-place Poly dropped Prep, 64-54 in a game much closer than the score might indicate. Finally, on Friday, the Rebels bounced back in their 76-40 victory at Rio Hondo Prep. The senior has been the Rebels most consistent offensive threat and leads the Rebels in rebounds. Prep hosts Chadwick and Poly in the final week of the season, and could finish as high as second place.
“Jake has been our inside presence, and he has provided us with consistent scoring all year,” Flintridge Prep guard Kendall Kikkawa said. “We like to get the ball inside early, because Jake shoots a fairly high percentage. We often start off the game well, and it helps us play well throughout.”
