NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
At some point this season, just like we did for the record-breaking senior season of former Folsom QB Jake Browning, we knew we were going to write up Kaiden Bennett as one of our players of the week. This became that week. Our other honorees for this week are from San Jose, Bakersfield, Valencia, Yorba […]
SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
In a wild-and-wacky week in which five different quarterbacks in the state (three from the same CIF section) threw for eight TDs in one game, we go with one of them as the SoCal Offensive POW. We also have a highly recruited defensive end who recovered two fumbles for touchdowns and a kicker with a […]
NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
Family ties are a big angle for this week’s honorees with one of them being the grandson of the head coach and another who’s got a twin brother who also is a standout on the same team. The six recipients this week are from Elk Grove, Tulare, Atherton, San Marino, Mission Viejo and Goleta.
SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
The three interception returns for TDs by Long Beach Poly’s Kejuan Markham stand out, but so do the reasons for the five others we’ve selected for this weekly honor. We have another DB with four interceptions in one game (with one TD), a running back with 410 yards and four TDs, a quarterback with 458 […]
NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
Our first three NorCal honorees of the 2018 football season wound up being from three different CIF sections. For Southern California, we have two from the CIF Southern Section and one from San Diego. The communities they represent are Moraga, Roseville, Tulare, Apple Valley, Carlsbad and Anaheim.
SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
For the final weekly player of the week honors of 2017-18, all four obviously had to have led their teams to CIF section titles last weekend. They all did it in different ways for CIF North Coast Section Division I, CIF Southern Section Division II, NCS D4 and Southern D4.
NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
Three of our honorees this week are done after sparking their teams to section titles, including two of them who will be in the Pac-12 Conference next year. We couldn’t pick someone from SoCal baseball who is done for the year, but did go with a top pitcher from the CIF L.A. City Section who […]
SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
The challenge this week was not to honor someone who was playing in a Tuesday sectional playoff game so we looked extra-hard to for those who are done or those who weren’t scheduled to play until later this week. Mission accomplished with Red Bluff’s Tanner Tweedt, San Diego Rancho Bernardo’s Nick Seamans, Mountain View St. […]
NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
How does five homers and 20 RBI for one week sound? That’s what Montebello’s Jose Macias did last week to earn our SoCal Player of the Week selection. The big first baseman has done more in the last three seasons, though, to gain recognition than just pounding the ball against weak competition. We also have […]
NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
Our two NorCal honorees were picked before they played their first game this week and both Madison Papenhausen from San Marin of Novato and James Pizzuti from El Dorado of Placerville remained on fire as Papenhausen had a no-hitter and Pizzuti drove in five runs. This week’s two SoCal honorees, meanwhile, are from Verdugo Hills […]
