BOLSA GRANDE and Huntington Beach girls’ basketball teams started off unbeaten (Shutterstock).

We reported in our Wednesday column that boys’ basketball teams serving our cities of Garden Grove, Huntington Beach, Stanton and Westminster are off to a slow start, with just three of 14 posting winning records so far.

A look at the girls’ teams shows them doing a bit better – five of 15 – but not much better.
With more wins than losses are Bolsa Grande (6-0), Garden Grove (4-2), Huntington Beach (3-0), Los Amigos (5-1) and La Quinta (4-3).

Four of those five, by the way, are from the Garden Grove Unified School District.
Those with “break-even” records are Marina (2-2) and Western (1-1).

Bolsa’s unbeaten record puts the Matadors as a favorite in the Orange League, competing with Saddleback (4-4) and perhaps Western (1-1).

Huntington Beach might find its toughest competition in the Sunset League to be Los Alamitos (4-1) or Newport Harbor (6-2).

Los Amigos is the only team in the Grove League with a winning mark; closest would be Santa Ana Valley at 2-2.

Garden Grove will likely face a daily competition in the Orange Coast League. Three other schools have at least three wins, led by Katella (3-2). Costa Mesa is 3-3 and Ocean View is at 3-4.
