For the third time so far this year, the San Benito and Christopher girls basketball teams went down to the final moments. This time - and for the second time this year - Christopher used a late run to pull away and defeat the Balers 43-36 in Hollister on Thursday.
It may not yet have the same pomp and circumstance as the Gilroy High-San Benito Prune Bowl, but don’t tell the Balers that Friday’s game against Christopher High wasn’t a rivalry.
