From STAFF REPORTS<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"Muir knew before taking the court Monday night how important the next five days are for their basketball program.<\/p>\n

The Mustangs have three Pacific League games and began the week in the league’s top spot.<\/p>\n

Arcadia got off to a hot start and was the polar opposite for Muir.<\/p>\n

The Apaches held the Mustangs to 17 first-half points.<\/p>\n

At half time, though, the seniors took over in the locker room and affirmed that the second half would be different.<\/p>\n

And they were right.<\/p>\n

Muir used a 46-33 second-half surge and edged the Apaches, 63-60.<\/p>\n

Arcadia had pulled to within 61-60 with just under 12 seconds to play.<\/p>\n

The Mustangs got the ball to their senior star Hunter Woods.<\/p>\n

\"\"After the Apaches fouled Woods, he calmly sunk both free throws and extended the lead to 63-60.<\/p>\n

Arcadia still had time to attempt a game-tying 3-pointer but after the Mustangs played smothering defense, the Apaches fired up one last shot and it wasn’t close.<\/p>\n

It was a relief for all at Muir, considering the three league games to be played over a 5-day span.<\/p>\n

Woods finished with 15 points and 10 rebounds.<\/p>\n

Tiyon Martin was huge with 14 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists.<\/p>\n

Tasson Aubry and Haleem Jenkins both chipped in 10 points apiece.<\/p>\n

Simaine Stewart Junior finished with 10 points, too, and he added 2 rebounds and 2 assists.<\/p>\n

Arcadia’s Jay Yoon led all scorers with 23 points and Jason Cardenas had 15.<\/p>\n

Quotable:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Muir coach Simaine Stewart:<\/strong> “First half, we couldn’t score. We missed shots we normally make. Arcadia played great offensively and we couldn’t put it down. They missed maybe 5 or 7 shots all first half. Defensively we got back to our principles. We went to more of a zone set and it made them make plays.<\/p>\n

We know we’ve got guys that if we called their number, they could have 30. At the end of the day, each guy that contribute makes a defense have to play honest. We’re trusting the process and everybody is buying in.”<\/p>\n

Box Score:<\/strong>
\nArcadia: 15-12-14-19-(60)
\nMuir: 6-11-24-22-(63)<\/p>\n

Records:<\/strong>
\nMuir (11-5, 3-0); Arcadia (4-4, 1-2)<\/p>\n
