This feature serves as our statewide collection of milestone achievements in California high school sports. There are two coaches — one from baseball and one from softball — who have won their 700th games. We also have softball player Carly Knoles of Duarte with a season hit total that gets her name into the state records plus several outings from earlier this week in CIF Southern Section playoff games, including a one-hitter by Torrance’s Brock Mayer against a team that was 27-1 and was on a 27-game winning streak.
