State Stat Stars of the Week
This feature serves as our statewide collection of milestone achievements in California high school sports. More than lists and numbers, we can provide historical context since we’ve maintained state records in California for more than 40 years. For baseball this week, we have 19 strikeouts for Zach Menlove of Monrovia for a school record, four...
NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
It’s not the usual when we honor players from highly-ranked teams, instead looking to highlight those from smaller and medium-size programs, but this week it was impossible for the two baseball honorees not to be pitchers from Valley Christian of San Jose in the north and Maranatha of Pasadena in the south. For softball, we […]

It’s the first week of May and already there are a few prominent teams that have lost in the CIF Southern Section playoffs and are done for the season, including two-time defending D1 champion JSerra.

We break down some of those pairings and explain why some of the rankings don’t match the seeds. The top six from last week remain the same with lots of...
NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
This is a week when we fulfill both purposes of this feature, to find and track potential entries for the Cal-Hi Sports Online Record Book, and we have one honoree that makes a huge record book splash, and to uncover talent that usually would only get local attention. This week our stops are in Madera […]
NEW Baseball State TOP 35 Rankings
As the regular season is about to end in the CIF Southern Section, a loss by Corona last week does not cause a change at the top of the state rankings. The win by La Mirada, however, does push that team up into the top 10 of this week’s rankings. Clovis also makes a huge...
