SALIDA — Manteca had no answer for 6-foot-9, 250-pound center Vincent Olmo in a Modesto Christian Holiday Hoop Classic second-round consolation game against Ripon on Thursday. Then the Indians’ young guns took over late. Sophomore Troy Brogan hit a late 3-pointer to start Ripon’s finishing 9-2 run, and Ripon upended the Valley Oak League defending champion, 53-46.
