The West Hills College Golden Eagle women’s basketball team took its first step toward a spot in the Community College playoffs after defeating visiting Siskiyous Tuesday night in the Golden Eagle Arena 73-61. The win allows the Eagles to advance in the playoffs where they will travel for a match-up against San Joaquin Delta on Thursday, March 3.

Tuesday night’s win improved West Hills Lemoore’s record to 17-11.

The Golden Eagles took an impressive 22-11 first-quarter lead and led 37-28 at the half. A big 21-11 third quarter just about sealed the win for the local ladies.
