I’m still not sure Palisades can win the City Section title, but I am sure few teams are as pesty as the Dolphins. The Dolphins beat Beverly Hills, 56-44, on Friday to win the San Fernando Valley Invitational tournament. They forced 22 turnovers and turned the Normans into a frazzled bunch.

‘We want to apply maximum pressure all the time,’ said forward Irvin Kintaudi, the tournament’s MVP. But will that tactic work against Western League powers Westchester or Fairfax? That’s the big question.
