However, Harvard-Westlake regrouped in the second half, led by Nikolas Khamenia and Joe Sterling, who combined for a total of 39 points. Sterling, in particular, scored 20 points and grabbed 10 rebounds. The Wolverines’ depth was evident as other starters and bench players also made key contributions.
