SACRAMENTO  (AP) — Stanley Johnson scored 26 points as Mater Dei of Santa Ana defeated Archbishop Mitty of San Jose, 50-45, to win the first California boys’ Open Division championship Saturday at Sleep Train Arena.

Elijah Brown added 11 points for Mater Dei (34-2), which extended its record with its 10th state title, all under coach Gary McKnight.

Mater Dei shot just 25 percent from the field but made 13 of 16 free throws.

Aaron Gordon, the top unsigned senior in the country, had 22 points and 20 rebounds for Mitty (29-5), but the Northern California champions had 22 turnovers.

Mitty started the game on a 6-0 run but Mater Dei went 11-10 with 1:24 left in the first quarter, and led the rest of the first half. Johnson scored 17 points in the first half and Gordon added 13.

Mitty came out fast to start the third quarter and took a 29-27 lead on a Brandon Farrell layup, but Johnson then scored 10 points in just over two minutes, drawing three fouls on Gordon in the process.
