“We did have a young team last year,” said coach John W. Parsons. “We are not too surprised to have equaled our win total.”
The Cougars went 2-2 last week, improving to 4-3 overall. Saturday’s win was the only victory the Cougars got in their participation in the Lowell Invitational Tournament.

Alex Reis made his season debut in the Lowell Tournament, scoring 56 points in the three games. He was the Cougars’ lone all-tournament pick.
Two days before the tournament started, Half Moon Bay picked up its most impressive win of the young season, defeating Piedmont, 58-52.
“They have a lot of big athletes,” Parsons said. “They have players being scouted by Sacramento State.”
Half Moon Bay returns to Piedmont this week, playing in the Piedmont Tournament. Half Moon Bay plays Bear River at 5 p.m., Thursday.
The Cougars arrive at each game with a different attitude.
“We now enter every game with the mindset that we are going to win,” Parsons said. “Last year, we had the mindset of playing well.”
