MURRIETA — The Vista Murrieta Broncos delivered a commanding performance in their matchup against the Lincoln Hornets on Wednesday, earning a decisive 77-40 victory in their non-league contest.
From the start, Vista Murrieta’s pressure defense proved too much for Lincoln to handle, resulting in numerous turnovers. Those mistakes translated into fastbreak opportunities and powerful finishes, highlighted by Lawrence Sanford (3), who led all scorers in a dominant effort. The Broncos’ high-energy play left little room for the Hornets to recover, as the game never became competitive.
Offensively, standout moments included key plays from Cisco Mu (24), Andrew Clyburn (12), and Lawrence Sanford (3), who punctuated the game with an emphatic dunk. The fourth quarter featured a running clock, cementing the Broncos’ control, while their defensive discipline and offensive execution were on full display throughout the evening.
Next up, the Broncos faced the Hillcrest Trojans on Friday, Dec. 6, and were aiming to build on their 4-1 season record, which they won 59-47. Currently, Vista Murrieta sits at 8-1 overall on the season after an exciting 68-62 win over Linfield Christian on Tuesday, Dec. 17.
Southwestern League action begins on January 8 of 2025, but fans won’t have to wait that long to see this talented squad in action. Vista Murrieta looks to carry this momentum forward this week as they prepare for future challenges, blending their intensity and teamwork to establish themselves as a force this season.
