Fresno Bee sports reporter Andy Boogaard is tweeting live from the SoCal Regional basketball doubleheader tonight at Clovis West High.

The Bee will be updating this post throughout the night so readers can follow how the third-seeded Golden Eagles girls are faring against No. 14 Millikan-Long Beach, to be followed by the No. 2 Clovis West boys taking on No. 15 Rancho Verde-Moreno Valley (slated for 7 p.m., but now certain to be pushed back as well).


Clovis West made a game of it but couldn't overcome Rancho Verde, leaving the host Golden Eagles with a pair of losses to Southern Section foes in their SoCal Regional doubleheader, as of 8:32 p.m.

Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Final: Rancho Verde 60, Clovis West 50

10 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Rancho Verde 57, CW 43 w/ 2:34 remaining.

14 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Ramiro Sanchez perimeter shooting keeping Eagles in ballpark -- sorta. It's Rancho Verde 54-41 w/ 4:10 left in game.

21 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Rancho Verde 46, CW 33 entering 4th.


Better news to report for the home team as Clovis West has gone on a 9-0 run to close to within 10 points in the third quarter, as of 8:11 p.m.

Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Remember when CW's boys fought back from the depths in loss to Bullard Saturday? Eagles trail now 40-30. Was 40-21.

10 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Rancho Verde 40, CW 21 w/ 5:36 left in 3rd. Mustangs stopped at COS for shootaround en route here. Must have gone well.


Not much good news for the home team to report with Clovis West trailing by 15 at the half, as of 7:57 p.m.

Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps No. 15 seed Rancho Verde 34, No. 2 Clovis West 19 at halftime. I thought maybe they had these seeds reversed.


The Clovis West boys haven't gotten off to a good start against Rancho Verde, being doubled-up well into the second quarter, as of 7:40 p.m.

2 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Rancho Verde 27, Clovis West 12 in SoCal Regional boys D-I opener w/ 5:00 left in half.

12 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps CW boys down 16-8 to Rancho Verde in 1st


After succumbing to a 23-8 run, Clovis West stormed back to tie the score only to see Millikan score with 4 seconds remaining to post the victory, as of 6:55 p.m.

Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Dungca scored with 4 seconds to go. She's tiny. I mean way tiny. But what a winning drive right down the heart of key.

2 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Johanna Dungca -- at 4-10, maybe -- beats Gutierrez off dribble, scores and Millikan wins 46-44.

3 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps CW defense must focus on Brulee-Wills. She's nails, and quicker than all Eagles.

4 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Anderson 3 in and out, but Briana Watts rebounds and puts it back in. We're tied, 44-44, w/ 27.1. Timeout and Millikan possession.

5 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Millikan turns it over at 49.3. CW ball, down 44-42. Wow!

6 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Eagles have come alive. So has crowd. Millikan 44-42 w/ 1:30 to go

7 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Millikan 44-42 w/ 2:00 to go

9 mins Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Millikan 42-37 w/ 3:15 left in game in this first round game of the Southern California Regionals girls D-I.


A 23-8 run in the second half has Clovis West's 10-point lead turned into a 5-point deficit in the fourth quarter, as of 6:48 p.m.

Andy Boogaard ‏@beepreps Millikan has outscored CW 23-8 in the half -- 23-8!!!
