By STEVE GALLUZZO Sports Editor

espite his team being awarded the No. 1 seed in the City Section Division I girls Dbasketball playoffs, Palisades High head coach Adam Levine was disappointed. He thought the Dolphins did enough to earn a spot in the Open Division, made up of the top eight teams. “We feel like we are one of the top eight teams and the second round of league proves that,” Levine said. “If you look at the record last year to a No. 1 seed in Division I this year we are excited about our progress. Being a No. 1 seed we have a target on our back and a clear goal of a championship this year and an Open run next season.” In contrast to last year when it lost its last nine games and finished in the Western League cellar, Palisades (19-8 overall, 8-3 in league) won six of its last seven regular season games this winter, including a 61-58 triumph over Hamilton that avenged a 26-point loss earlier in the season. Hamilton and league champion Westchester both made the Open Division. Palisades opens the 16-team, single-elim- ination tournament Saturday night at 7 against the winner of today’s wild card game between No. 14 University and No. 17 View Park. The quarterfinals are next Wednesday at 7 p.m. Meanwhile, Palisades’ boys squad had to play four times in five nights to close the regu- lar season and got the No. 4 seed in Division I after finishing fourth in league behind Fairfax, Westchester and University (which split with the Dolphins but has a higher win percentage). Palisades (12-13 overall, 6-5 in league) trailed by as many as 12 points in its regular season finale but rallied to beat Venice 64-54. “We just needed to get in—that’s almost all that mattered,” Coach Donzell Hayes said. “We have home games throughout which is good enough for us. Now it’s time to play ball.” Sammie Arnold drives against Venice defender Chrissy Wakasa in the Dolphins’ The Dolphins host No. 13 South Gate in Will Janney shoots a jumper over two defenders during Palisades’ regular-season 57-32 road victory last Tuesday.

The Dolphins defeated Venice 64-54 to finish fourth in the Western League and are seeded No. 1 in the City Division I playoffs.

By PATRICK FRANK Contributing Writer

f all the ways of getting into the wine business, Pali- Osades-born Vincent Fritzsche chose the most hands-on: He apprenticed in wineries and vineyards, working from the bottom up. Today he is a recognized bou- tique producer in one of the world’s most exciting wine regions. The seventh of seven chil- dren, Fritzsche was raised on Oc- ampo Drive in The Huntington Zenith Vineyard in Oregon Photo courtesy of Patrick Frank in the 1970s. Following a family tradition, he went to Loyola High School downtown before earning a master’s degree in English liter- ature at Santa Clara University. Along the way he caught the wine bug. It was probably the aes- thetics of wine tasting that pulled him in at first, but after a few years as a consumer, “It just made sense to keep on learning more and more,” he told the Palisadian-Post during a late-January visit to the Vincent Fritzsche stomping grapes.

Did you ever think you would need an extra hand around the house? Recently I took an art lesson to learn to make a plaster cast of my hand. I created my sculpture using a mold and plaster. My cast wasn’t flawless but it had a stunning amount of detail, it showed all my hand creases and nails. It took two hours of work and patience, but it all paid off. I was surprised that someone like me with little artistic talent could create something so amazing. Hand by Me Shout out to Britney Ransom at 1450 art lab in Santa Monica for her great instructions.
