All-Time All-State Small Schools Team (Offense)
It’s taken a few weeks of research in between all of the usual weekly features we do, but we’re ready to go with an expanded version of our All-Time All-State Small Schools Football Teams. This is a celebration of all of those small schools everywhere from Weed and Ferndale to the north and to those...
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. The CIF Central Section players were off-the-charts last week with Jerod Bubba Smith of Fowler leading the group...
CdM, Bosco honor 16-0 teams
Both Corona del Mar of Newport Beach and St. John Bosco of Bellflower recently hosted on-the-field celebrations with members of their football teams from 2013, which became the first teams in state history to end with 16-0 records. As a salute to what both teams did 10 years ago on the same day, here’s a […]
SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
When we talk about this feature being a way to track talent that many times comes in under the radar, and potential entries into the Cal-Hi Sports Online Record Book, we cover all the bases this week. For the first stop in Woodland Hills, it’s more of a grand slam as our honoree is going […]
NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
Two of the leading sophomore players in the state had huge outings last weekend, but the beauty of having a multi-purpose/special teams category is that we can pick them both. We also have a player with a 105-yard interception return that for our purposes is not a state record tie of 99 yards since we’ve […]
Great Start for Girls Flag Football
In all of our previous years covering California football, there have been mentions of girls playing the boys game, but this school year the girls have their own game. We went to our first-ever game last Thursday to see the first game played at our local high school in Stockton, but it’s just one school […]
Calif Hall of Fame Takes Next Step
A ribbon cutting ceremony for the new California High School Football Hall of Fame was held last weekend at the Rose Bowl. It will be open for public viewing starting this weekend. A gala induction ceremony for all of the initial inductees will be planned for the spring of 2024. FOR THE WRITEUP THAT INCLUDES […]
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. This week’s best includes kicker Ryon Sayeri with two 53-yard field goals, a 99-yard touchdown pass play, two...
SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
For the second week of this feature we cover all the bases with respect to the purpose of the feature, and that is to track potential entries in the Cal-Hi Sports Online Record Book, and to uncover hidden talent that in many instances only gets local props. We also generally try to stay away from […]
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. Last week alone, we had three QBs come up with seven TD passes in one game. There also...
