THOUSAND OAKS GIRLS’ TOURNAMENT : Camarillo Closer to Taking 5th After Beating Sacred Heart

The Thousand Oaks High girls’ basketball tournament is a lot like those boxes of assorted chocolates you see around the holidays: There’s something for everybody.

With awards running as deep as 10th place, it is one of the rare tournaments in which three defeats doesn’t mean elimination.
