ATHLETES OF THE WEEK: SCOTT BORCHART, KRISTEN GALBREATH.SCOTT BORCHART Junior West Hills Chaminade basketball Borchart, at 6-foot-9, is developing into one of the top big men in the state.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK ``Even as a ninth-grader, getting all of this publicity, he'd rather his teammates get the publicity and have his teammates be in the picture with him.'' - Woodland Hills Taft boys' basketball coach Mark Drucker, regarding freshman standout Steve Smith HEAD TO HEAD Matchup of the week: Encino Crespi guard Andrew Moore For other persons named Andrew Moore, see Andrew Moore (disambiguation). Andrew Moore (1752–April 14, 1821) was an American lawyer and politician from Lexington, Virginia. He represented Virginia in both the U.S. House (1789-97, 1803-04) and the U.S. Senate (1804-1809). vs. Chaminade guard Ryan Arceo. Friday, 7:30 p.m. at Chaminade It's a matchup of two of the area's finest outside shooters in a key early-season Mission League game. Arceo and Moore have the ability to consistently stroke it from 3-point range, which opens things up for their teammates inside and diminishes the will of the opponent. Arceo did just that last Thursday against San Francisco Riordan in the final of the Chaminade tournament, sinking three consecutive 3-pointers to erase an eight-point deficit and put the Eagles ahead for good. At this point, Moore might have the better all-around game, but only because he's asked to do more.
