“Central Valley is a really good team and we had to compete all night,” Wolverines coach Anthony Ovial said. “They play tremendously hard on defense and they play together on offense. They got out on transition and did a really nice job of getting up the floor. We just didn’t adjust to their speed.
“They can play inside and they can play outside. They’re very balanced. They’re as good of a team as we’re going to play. I expect them to make a run in the playoffs.”
