The Burbank Lady Bulldogs easily came out as winners over the Muir Lady Mustangs with a convincing 75-36 win behind a 35 point performance by Andrea Aparico. Last week Muir had a decisive 53-26 win over Hoover and Burbank convincingly came out on top with a 64-40 win over Pasadena in the battle of the Bulldogs.

Quote of the week

“I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.“
