High School Roundup: Huntington Beach loses Bailey, game versus Lynwood

The bad news did not stop there for the Oilers (5-3), as Huntington Beach coach Russell McClurg said that the team may have lost its starting center, Zoie Bailey, for an extended period with a separated shoulder. No timetable has been established for the senior’s return.
In its tournament opener on Tuesday, Huntington Beach picked up a 39-30 win over ThunderRidge of Highlands Ranch, Colo.
McClurg is three wins shy of 400 for his coaching career.
