LPC avoids upset, beats Cañada
2/1/12
The Hawks survived a second upset bid by Cañada on Wednesday night, holding on for a 54-50 Coast Conference North Division victory in Livermore.
LPC (18-6, 4-4), which lost to Cañada 80-71 on Jan. 6 -- the Colts' only conference victory this season -- shot poorly from the field, but connected on 20 of 21 free throws. Jarred Jourdan made 8 of 9 from the foul line en route to scoring a game-high 20 points to lead the Hawks.
Cañada (5-14, 1-7) trailed the entire game before pulling even at 50-50 with 54 seconds remaining. Devonae Leach then rebounded a Jourdan miss inside and was fouled with 31.5 seconds left.
Leach made both free throws, and on the ensuing possession, Cañada ran the clock down to 0:18 and called timeout. Needing a defensive stop to win the game, LPC forced the Colts into a missed shot with 5 seconds left.
However, Cañada ran down the rebound, but a desperation shot was off the mark. Leach corralled the rebound, got fouled and made both free throws with 3 tenths of a second remaining to finish off the Colts.
The Hawks' next game is Friday at 7 p.m. at City College of San Francisco (21-2, 7-0), the No. 1-ranked team in the state.

LPC loses heartbreaker at the buzzer
1/25/12
The Hawks barely missed a chance to beat Ohlone for the first time ever Wednesday night.
A 3-pointer by Cedric Young bounced off the rim as time expired, and visiting Ohlone escaped with a 63-62 Coast Conference North Division victory.
The loss, LPC's 11th straight to the Renegades all time, dropped the Hawks to 16-6 overall and 2-4 in the conference.
After being tied 32-32 at halftime, the lead seesawed most of the second half. Ohlone (11-9, 4-2) led 59-58 with 5:03 remaining before Dylan Heath scored on an out-of-bounds play to put the Hawks up by one.
Ohlone scored the next four points, but Young's steal and ensuing two free throws brought LPC within one again at 63-62 with 1:27 left. Ohlone missed at the other end, but got an offensive rebound and called timeout.
The Renegades missed again, but got another offensive rebound. This time, though, Demarr Eagles stole the ball at 0:24, and LPC called timeout with 15.5 seconds remaining.
The Hawks worked the ball around, and Young found himself open on the left wing for the potential game-winner. However, he misfired at 0:01, and Ohlone had the victory.

Tournament MVP Dylan Heath scored 25 points Saturday as the Hawks held off Chabot 75-72 in the championship game of the Tip-Off Classic in Livermore.
The Tip-Off title is LPC's third in the tourney's 6-year history, and it avenges a loss to Chabot in last year's championship game. The Gladiators entered as the two-time defending champions.
For a few moments toward the end of Saturday's game, it appeared as if Chabot might make it three titles in a row. The Hawks (3-0) led 68-52 with 8 minutes remaining before Chabot (2-1) scored 18 of the game's next 21 points to move within 71-70 with 1:25 left.

Welcome to the Hawks' web site!
Las Positas College's basketball team, which capped a winning season in 2010-11 with a playoff appearance, looks to achieve bigger and better things in 2011-12.
The Hawks are spending the offseason retooling after their sophomore-dominated squad compiled a 16-13 overall record last season. After finishing the non-conference season with 12 wins and only 5 losses, LPC struggled in the rugged Coast Conference North Division.
However, big non-conference wins, coupled with a high strength of schedule in conference, earned the Hawks their second playoff berth in their first five years of existence. The season ended with a first-round Northern Regional playoff loss to Yuba.
During the upcoming season, LPC will be aiming to improve in the Coast Conference, make the playoffs again, and this time, make a significant run in the playoffs.
