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 […]
SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
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.

SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
Coming off of a three-week absence due to injury may not have ever been done better than what Sean McDonald of Ramona High did last Friday. Plus, we’re honoring one of three CIF Central Section QBs who should surpass 10,000 career yards on the same night this week. This week’s group in all also comes […]
SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
Kicking off and letting either one of our two special teams honorees this week touch the ball might be a big mistake. And both Kris Hutson of St. John Bosco (Bellflower) and Sione Vaki from Liberty (Brentwood) are elite players in many other ways when they are on the field. In addition to those two, […]
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 […]
