For the second straight week, LPC returns home as champions.

One week after winning the DVC Classic, the Hawks won the Skyline Tournament on Sunday with an 84-72 victory over Reedley in the championship game in San Bruno.

Winners of 6 straight games, LPC, which is ranked #13 in Northern California, improved its record to 9-5. Moreover, the Hawks won the Skyline title for the second straight year and for the fourth time in 10 years.

Tournament MVP Cameron Moses scored 8 points and handed out 10 assists for LPC. All-tournament selection McKayle Harnell put in 15 points.

However, Brandon Eboigbodin and Keith Hunter carried the scoring load with 24 points each. Eboigbodin was 10-for-10 from the floor and added 8 rebounds and 4 steals. Hunter contributed 7 rebounds and 5 assists.

For the tournament, the Hawks averaged 88.3 points. In the DVC Classic, they scored 94 in the championship game against Santa Monica after scoring 63 and 69 points, respectively, against Sequoias and Diablo Valley.

"For us to be scoring like we are, I would not have forecast us being an 80- to 90-point team," LPC coach James Giacomazzi said. "But we've found out we can beat teams either way. We can grind it out, or like against Santa Monica and Bakersfield (96 points), we can score with you, too."

Reedley, which beat host Skyline and Siskiyous to reach the championship game, fell to 3-7.

The Hawks have one more game until the Coast Conference North Division season begins Jan. 6. LPC will play its first home contest in a month Dec. 22 when it takes on West Valley at 3 p.m. in Livermore.

Just two weeks ago, the prospect of a 10-win nonconference season seemed unlikely, particularly when the Hawks endured a stretch of losing 5 of 6 games.

"We knew our guys would struggle early until they learned the system and felt comfortable in it," Giacomazzi said. "As a coach, you don't know when that happens, but it does happen. We had some struggles early, then we added a few wrinkles. Now, we're playing within ourselves. We're maximizing our strengths and minimizing our weaknesses. When you do that, everything clicks."

And when everything clicks, team confidence seems to grow.

"We're pretty confident," the coach said. "We mentioned to our guys that we're now starting to have the target on us. Earlier this season, it was on the other foot. But with the target on us comes responsibility. We have to be at our best game in and game out."
