NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
With NorCal ending the regular season while most of SoCal was in the first week of section playoffs, we have stops this week in Elk Grove, Fairfield, Encino and San Diego. One of our tips of the hat is for a 50-point game while another was for a huge outing against a team led by […]
SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
Scoring 24 points often isn’t enough to be a player of the week, but St. Mary’s of Stockton junior point guard Jamar Marshall did it when his team ended the state-record and national-best 194-game league win streak held by Modesto Christian. We talked with Jamar at school earlier this week about that game. He’s joined […]

SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
For the first time in this honors’ program history, we’ve chosen two players from great games played on a Saturday who then had their teams play against each other on a Monday. That can only happen on MLK weekend. For the boys, we were more normal going with hair-raising scoring outputs from players representing regions […]

SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
It’s a great week to write up Jarod Lucas of Hacienda Heights Los Altos as the SoCal Boys Player of the Week since he’s just about to pass DeMar DeRozan of the San Antonio Spurs for the 15th spot on the Cal-Hi Sports all-time state career scoring list. This week’s other three honorees are from […]

SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
The state No. 2 Pinewood of Los Altos Hills girls often get “the Jump” on opponents with their Stanford-bound sharpshooter. She’s joined as a NorCal Player of the Week by a promising sophomore from Carmel. For SoCal, high-scoring junior Clark Slajchert of Oak Park and athletic forward DeMariyah McGee from Rancho Verde of Moreno Valley […]
NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
Our weekly honors switch this week from football to boys and girls basketball where it’s usually the case that we’re looking for tournament MVPs. The two boys winners definitely fit that description from the Gridley Invitational Basketball Tournament and that Father Barry Classic in Carmichael. For the girls, we have a top returnee from a […]

This week marks the final group of football players we are honoring for this weekly feature for this season. Next week, we are switching to boys and girls basketball and will be writing one one boy and one girl each for Northern and Southern California. Even though the pickings can be slim for football with […]
