There’s no changes in top six in this week’s rankings after all results from the NHSI in North Carolina are in. No. 1 Corona is no longer unbeaten, but still clearly No. 1 in the state with a loss to the team that won the prestigious tourney. La Mirada also is still No. 2 since...
State Stat Stars & Record Updates
UCLA-bound Jazmine Leyva of South El Monte is closing in on state record for career doubles, but will she get enough pitches to hit?

NEW State Softball TOP 25 Rankings

FINAL Girls BB State TOP 40 Rankings

Girls BB: FINAL Division State Ranks
