Dante Tolleson and Kyle Martin led the junior varsity basketball team to its third straight West Yosemite League win Friday night in Lemoore’s Event Center.

Each had 10 points as the Tigers beat the hapless Mt. Whitney Pioneers 59-22.

Lemoore’s JV squad has been in a word, “awesome” this season as it has rolled to a 15-1 overall record, its only loss coming in a home contest to Sunnyside. Coincidentally, the Tigers won the Sunnyside Holiday Tournament a few weeks ago.

Tolleson scored seven of his 10 points in a strong second period in which Lemoore scored 27 points to outdistance the Pioneers. Martin also had seven points in the second.

Lemoore went up by 40 points early in the fourth quarter to start a running clock.
