Beahm's Big Week
Former Willow Glen basketball standout Guy Beahm had a big week for the West Valley Community College men's team, pouring in 48 points in two games for the Vikings.
Beahm pitched in 21 points last Friday night to lead the Vikes to a 92-79 win over rival San Jose City College. Beahm had a pair of three-pointers among his eight field goals, and he was 3-for-3 at the free-throw line.
Earlier in the week, Beahm led the Vikings with 27 points, but West Valley lost a tough 73-70 Coast Conference nod to Hartnell. Beahm has three threes among his 10 field goals and he was 4-for-4 at the line.
The Vikings are now 6-3 in the conference and 14-11 for the year.
