What a night for Viewpoint Athletics! Both our Varsity Girls Soccer and Varsity Boys Basketball teams delivered nail-biting, peak performances yesterday, February 12, progressing to the second round of CIF SS playoffs in the postseason. 

In an intense match against Santa Ana High School, the Varsity Girls Soccer team went into double overtime with a tie score. In the second half of overtime, Charlotte Young ’27 delivered the game-winning golden goal, securing the team’s spot in the next round of Division 5 playoffs.

"Our mindset going into overtime was to stay composed and stick to our game," said Coach Zaira Fonseca. "We went over many scenarios at practice, including what to do when we need a last-minute goal. Seeing Charlotte’s goal go in was a perfect example of it all coming together. I’m so proud of this team!"

The Varsity Boys Basketball team kept fans on the edge of their seats during their game against Capistrano Valley High School. Down by one point with just three seconds left on the clock, Wesley Waddles ’25 made a layup at the buzzer to win the game, and advance to the next round of Division 2AA.

"I believe it’s safe to say we were all elated with the result of Wesley’s buzzer-beating layup," said Head Coach JJ Prince. "A beautiful memory for all to remember in the Paul Family Athletic Center."

The second round of CIF SS playoffs for our Boys Basketball and Girls Soccer teams is tomorrow, February 14. The girls will host Shadow Hills at 3:00 p.m. on Ring Field, while the boys are on the road to Riverside Poly for a 7:00 p.m. game time. Go Patriots!
