Our thoughts | What a spectacular performance from the boys this season. On a four-game win streak, second in their division and winning 12 of their 18 games, the Wolves are playing at a level similar to the 2017-18 varsity team. With one of the best coaches in the Los Angeles school district, seemingly unbreakable team chemistry and great play on both ends of the courts, this team has proven time and time again that they are a force not to be reckoned with.
