San Diego Section teams won two of seven Southern California championship basketball games.
Mater Dei defeated host Mission Hills Bishop Alemany, 56-42, in Division II-AA and Rancho Bernardo topped visiting San Pedro Mary Star of the Sea, 72-44, in D-IIIAA.
The Crusaders were a No. 5 seed and Alemany No. 2. Rancho Bernardo was a 2 seed against its 4-seed visitors from the area near the Palos Verdes peninsula.
School is out but there’s a sense of great accomplishment around Mater Dei’s Chula Vista campus. The boys also won, defeating Fresno Central, 67-50.
El Camino suffered a three-point loss to higher seed Studio City Westlake Village and Victory Christian lost by four to higher seed Corcoran, which traveled more than 300 miles.
Seedings precede numbers in parenthesis, which represent the statewide pregame rating of the team by Max Preps.
