Girls Top 20: El Camino beats Rio Raiders to finish 10-0 in CAL; Del Oro defeats Nevada Union to claim 8th straight SFL title

Jade Sowell-Hundon's game-high 23 points led No. 4 El Camino to a 65-45 Capital Athletic League win over No. 17 Rio Americano in girls basketball tonight.

With the win, El Camino (23-4, 10-0) finishes unbeaten in league play for the second consecutive season and first under new coach Rich Drawbert. Fie Brandt led Rio Americano (17-10, 7-3) with 19 points.

Michelle Okoroike had 26 points and freshman Cameo Warren 14 as No. 19 Antelope (18-7, 7-3) defeated Whitney 70-45 to finish in a tie for second in the CAL with Rio Americano. Alex Rodriguez had 22 points for Whitney.

In other games involving The Bee's Top 20 girls teams:
