For our next to last stop for the SoCal region in our series of preseason all-section or all-area football teams, we head to the San Fernando Valley & Ventura County area of the CIF Southern Section. This team also includes players from Santa Barbara County plus the Santa Clarita Valley but not the Antelope Valley. The top team in the region, Sierra Canyon, has already begun playing but the others who have multiple players on this preseason squad, including Oaks Christian, Newbury Park, St. Bonaventure and Pacifica (Oxnard), all begin later this week.
Note: These preseason all-section or all-area teams are done in the same 30-player format as the annual Cal-Hi Sports All-State Football Teams. They are based on a combination of what the players did last fall and college recruiting. Not every all-section team will have writeups of every player. Some will have an intro, then lists.
