NEW Softball State Top 20
Yes, it was the calm before the storm for the previous rankings compared to this week’s myriad of moves that had to be made. And when the storm passed, sitting on top of the state — at least for this week — has to be Michelle Carew Classic champion Cathedral Catholic of San Diego. Go...
NEW Softball State Top 20
SInce the top five remained the same and there were only two new teams for this week’s rankings, it may be the calm before the storm with big tournaments coming up this weekend. Unfortunately, storms may greatly impact all of these upcoming events, including the Michelle Carew Classic and Livermore Stampede. Note: All of our remaining...
NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
Collecting an MVP award from the Open Division in one of the state’s top baseball tournaments each year also gets SoCal Player of the Week recognition for San Marcos standout Zack Prajzner. He’s known for slick glove at shortstop and for hitting, but it was what he did on the mound in a rare start […]
NEW Softball State Top 20
Bad weather and spring break contributed to a lack of games and not much movement in this week’s State Top 20. Look for the first 10 teams to go on our ticker beginning Monday and for more changes next week as make-up games are coming. Unbeaten Santa Margarita getting a bump and Poway getting uplifted...

Norco moves up to No. 3 with Orange Lutheran (which has split with Norco) at No. 2. Newcomers this week are...
NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
Sometimes we just have to include a Monday game for this feature and we have this week with Palm Desert’s Sydney Sprinkle, who did more than sprinkle a few runs batted in during a game with Shadow Hills. We also have chosen two others with huge power numbers — one softball player from Oakland and […]
NEW Softball State Top 20
It could have been three different teams that could have been the new No. 1 in this week’s State Top 20, but the pick went to the next highest in line as Cathedral Catholic of San Diego moved up from No. 2. Previous No. 1 Norco lost to new No. 3 Lutheran of Orange in...
NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
It’s our first chance this season to write about some of the most prolific, interesting and best baseball/softball players in the state through this weekly feature. One of them really is a Starr who hails from the fairly new school of Mountain House. The other three are from Valencia, San Jose and Atascadero.
