The Gilroy boys basketball team knew beating No. 9 El Camino would be no easy feat, but it was still hoping for the first round upset.
Poor 3-point shooting and an aggressive El Camino team were a lethal combination for the Mustangs, who ended their season with a 80-52 in the Central Coast Section Division III opening round Tuesday on the road.
The hosts had back-to-back 20-point quarters — the second and third — which Gilroy just couldn’t overcome.
Josiah Wiley led Gilroy with 12 points, followed by Zach Loo with nine and Chris Chang with eight.
The Mustangs finish the season 11-13 overall and 6-6 in league play.
