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.
Mr. Baseball & Ms. Softball Finalists
On the same day that a California girl is once again named as the Gatorade National Player of the Year in softball, we are equally proud to announce five finalists for the Ms. Softball State Player of the Year honor, which sometimes goes along with Gatorade and sometimes it doesn’t.

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 […]
NEW Softball State Division Ranks
For this week, we are doing the next-to-last divisional state rankings in softball BEFORE the Tuesday section playoff games and will be doing baseball AFTER those contests. There just aren’t that many games left in softball compared to baseball with all sections done except the Southern and North Coast. Top-ranked teams entering the final week...
NEW Softball State Top 20
