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

Despite the rain and cold outside the gym, and in spite of a rough shooting night in it, Maranatha still battled Whittier Christian to the end.<\/p>\n

The Minutemen made just 17 of 62 shots in Tuesday’s Olympic League opener at Whittier Christian, and against a Heralds team that began the game 14-3.<\/p>\n

MHS got off to a great start when they took an 18-6 lead after the first quarter, but the Heralds turned the tables in the second period with a 23-7 surge.<\/p>\n

Both schools matched the other with 14 third-quarter and 7 fourth quarter points each.<\/p>\n

But Whittier Christian held on, 50-46, to open Olympic League play with a win.<\/p>\n

Patil Yaacoubian led Maranatha with 15 points and Emily Jordan chipped in with 11 points, but they did do on a combined 9 of 31 shooting.<\/p>\n

And yet somehow the Minutemen found a way to take the Heralds to the wire.<\/p>\n

Cherise Masuda finished with 7 points, 9 assists and 7 steals.<\/p>\n

Mikayla Murphy led MHS with 9 rebounds<\/p>\n

Maranatha will host Heritage Christian next Tuesday as Olympic League play continues.<\/p>\n

Box Score:<\/strong>
\nMHS: 18-7-14-7-(46)
\nWC: 6-23-14-7-(50)<\/p>\n

Records:<\/strong>
\nMaranatha (9-8, 0-1); Whittier Christian (15-3, 1-0)
