 Saturday night against Santa Monica Santa Monica (săn`tə mŏn`ĭkə), city (1990 pop. 86,905), Los Angeles co., S Calif., on Santa Monica Bay; inc. 1886. Tourism and retailing are important, and the city has motion-picture, biotechnology, and software industries. .

Still, the UCLA-bound guard was too much for Santa Monica to handle in the Falcons' 73-52 victory at Crescenta Valley.

The 5-foot-10 Greco, still ailing from a nagging right thigh injury that forced her to miss two games earlier this season, had 34 points, 17 rebounds and six assists.

Greco, who played the entire 32 minutes with her thigh heavily taped, made 15 of 16 free throws but was 9 of 30 from the field, making only 1 of 7 shots in the fourth quarter and 4 of 14 in the first half.

Crescenta Valley coach Damian Scribner said he was left with no choice but to use Greco with sophomore forward Sinnamonn Garrett in foul trouble.

``The hardest game is the first round,'' Scribner said. ``You need to develop momentum and have to let the game dictate how many minutes you give each player.''

With Garrett on the bench with four fouls, Santa Monica (16-10), crept to within 47-37 with less than a minute to play in the third quarter.

Greco ignited a 14-0 run with two quick baskets and an assist to help Crescenta Valley pad its lead to 61-37 with four minutes to play.

Garrett finished with 12 points and seven rebounds.

She finished with a game-high 27 points. Alemany (21-6) would increase the run to 33-5 in the first half before settling for a 33-5 halftime lead.
