Updated Girls VBall State Top 20

Results from the Stockton Classic and SoCal Invitational don’t cause any changes at the top, but do create a lot of movement from No. 13 and downward. That’s how both Sacred Heart Cathedral and Canyon Crest Academy earned their new rankings, although one has already lost this week. The CIF state office also confirmed last […]
