Prep basketball roundup: Brentwood stays unbeaten in Gold Coast League after OT win
With 9.2 seconds left in regulation and a three-point lead on Monday night, Brentwood coach Ryan Bailey told his players repeatedly during a timeout that there were two fouls to give, so foul to prevent a three-point shot from Windward.
He then watched Louis Bond of Windward get off an uncontested three from the top of the key just before the buzzer sounded to send the game into overtime.
'I should have fouled,' said sophomore AJ Okoh, who was guarding Bond to start the play.
It ended up working out for the Eagles, who won in overtime 70-66 to improve to 22-3 and 5-0 in the Gold Coast League.
Okoh finished with 28 points, including a 12-point barrage in the third quarter that saved Brentwood when 6-foot-8 freshman center Shalen Sheppard went to the bench with three fouls. Sheppard finished with 18 points.
'I know we had a lot of brain lapses,' Sheppard said. 'But we didn't get mad at each other and that helped us.'
Jeremiah Hampton scored 25 points for Windward (17-5, 2-1).
Asked what he learned from the game, Okoh said, 'To fully listen.'
Santa Margarita 67, St. John Boscoo 66: Brayden Kyman delivered a game-winning three for the Eagles, creating more uncertainty in the Trinity League race. Kaiden Bailey finished with 19 points and Kyman 17. Elzie Harrington scored 19 points for St. John Bosco.
St. Pius X-St. Matthias 68, St. Paul 62: Jaden Erami had 25 points and Kayleb Kearse 21 points for St. Pius.
Sun Valley Poly 91, North Hollywood 44: JD Wyatt finished with 32 points for the Parrots.
Fairfax 54, University 37: Muhammad Singleton led the Lions with 21 points.
Palisades 67, Venice 59: The Dolphins kept pace in the Western League behind 16 points from Tommy Pickens and 15 points from Jack Levey.
Westchester 68, LACES 56: Tajh Ariza had 24 points and 16 rebounds.
Windward 63, Brentwood 54: The Wildcats (11-7, 2-0) took a big step toward winning the Gold Coast League, opening a 16-point lead in the first half, then 17 in the third quarter to hold off the Eagles (18-6, 3-1). Olivia Lagao scored 20 points, Charis Rainey 14, Samari Bankhead 11 and Amel Cook 10. Lev Feiman had 26 points for Brentwood.

Giants fan reveals why she got naughty Jason Kelce tattoo
Of course it all comes down to a bet to get a nude Jason Kelce tattoo. Lauren Philpot, who got the shocking and viral tattoo that pictures a cartoon nude Kelce, told TMZ Sports the story behind it is from a bet she lost to her husband dating back to the 2022-23 season. Philpot, who is a Giants fan, is still a fan of the six-time All-Pro and Super Bowl champ along with Kelce's wife, Kylie. For those reasons, she doesn't have any regrets about the new body art, nor the three to five hours it took to get it done. 3 Lauren Philpot's Jason Kelce tattoo. Instagram @palehorsetattoostudio 3 Lauren Philpot talks to TMZ Sports about her new Jason Kelce tattoo. TMZ Sports 'This is who I am as a person, a bet is a bet,' Philpot said. 'If I get it covered up, I still went through with it. No, I don't care. It's a funny story. It's something that my husband and I like to do.' Kelce saw the tattoo as it made the rounds on social media and initially posted on X, 'I'm not sure if I should be offended or flattered.' It wasn't until about 30 minutes later that he made his final decision on it. 'I think it's more flattered,' he posted, 'it's a generous bird, good-sized head.' 3 Jason Kelce, former Philadelphia Eagles player, cheers on the Philadelphia Phillies during a game against the Chicago Cubs at Citizens Bank Park on June 10, 2025. Getty Images Philpot saw Kelce's reaction and hopes the Eagles legend knows it is all respect. 'Although I'm a Giants fan, I have a lot of respect for the Eagles and what they are like as a team,' Philpot said. 'So, who else am I going to put on my arm? Jason Kelce.' Kelce is not the only Eagle to be tattooed on Philpot. She also has Gardner Minshew's mustache over one of her knees. Philpot and her husband haven't yet decided on their bet for the upcoming 2025-26 season. 'We usually ask people, our friends, and stuff, or maybe take a poll on Facebook,' she said. 'I am open to it, whether it's a tattoo or if I have to take [my husband] somewhere, vice versa. I'm open to whatever.'

Injury carnage as Blues beat Eagles in the wet
Star Carlton forward Charlie Curnow suffered a calf scare and West Coast captain Oscar Allen went down with what looked to be a painful knee injury in Carlton's 34-point AFL win over the Eagles in Perth. The Blues kicked 10 of the first 11 goals of Sunday's match to set up the 12.14 (86) to 7.10 (52) victory in wet and slippery conditions at Optus Stadium. Carlton improved their season record to 6-7, a massive improvement from their 0-4 start to the season. There was plenty of injury drama in the final quarter, starting with Allen crumpling to the turf in pain behind play. Allen looked to be favouring his heavily-strapped left knee as he slowly hobbled to the bench with the help of two trainers. Eagles defender Harry Edwards, who damaged his shoulder earlier in the match, went off a short time later with a hamstring injury. Allen is a high-profile restricted free agent, and is being heavily chased by Hawthorn and Brisbane. But if his knee injury is serious, it would heavily affect his bargaining power for either a new deal at West Coast or a fresh start elsewhere. Carlton's official line was that Curnow had suffered calf tightness, and the key forward did his best to play down any concerns after the match. "It's fine," Curnow told Fox Footy. "I've never really had a soft tissue before. I had a bit of awareness ... so we'll see how we go. "It looks like it's going to be pretty fine. So I look forward to getting out against North Melbourne next week. "You've just got to be really careful with those things." Fellow star forward Harry McKay missed his second straight game with a knee issue, while gun midfielder Sam Walsh is out for five to six weeks after a hot spot in his foot was discovered on Friday. Nic Newman (knee), No.3 draft pick Jagga Smith (knee) and Brodie Kemp (achilles) are already out for the rest of the season. Blues ruck-forward Hudson O'Keeffe went down with a hamstring injury in the second half. George Hewett racked up 35 disposals and seven clearances for Carlton, while Lachie Fogarty and Mitch McGovern kicked three goals apiece. Harley Reid battled hard for West Coast with 28 possessions and five clearances. But he could come under scrutiny for a swinging elbow that connected to the head of Lachie Fogarty after being chased down by the Carlton forward. The Blues made harder than it needed to be 😅#AFLEaglesBlues — AFL (@AFL) June 15, 2025 Eagles debutant Tom McCarthy, who was snared with pick No.1 in the mid-season rookie draft, was arguably his team's best with 31 disposals and 571 metres gained, while Bailey Williams kicked three goals. West Coast's defence was simply overwhelmed in the first quarter as Carlton unleashed wave after wave of attacks in the slippery conditions. Fogarty cashed in with three goals, while Mitch McGovern, Curnow, Tom De Koning and Zac Williams also got on the goal sheet in a 46-7 romp. Hewett and Patrick Cripps combined for 22 disposals in the first quarter. In contrast, West Coast had a whopping 11 players with two possessions or less to their name. "We were pathetic in the contest," West Coast coach Andrew McQualter said of the first-quarter flop. The lead raced out to 57 points midway through the second quarter before West Coast finally put up a fight.
