Mission Viejo does indeed move to No. 2 in place of St. John Bosco after its big loss to No. 1 Mater Dei, although that isn’t going to match computer rankings that will be used for the CIF Southern Section D1 playoffs. De La Salle also joins top five for the first time this season,...

State Football Players of the Week
One award winner was close to making the grade, but we didn’t have any entries this week to track for the Cal-Hi Sports Online Record Book, which is one of the purposes of this feature, but we did satisfy the other object of the feature and that is to uncover some talent that in most […]

Preseason State TOP 50 Ranks (31-50)
A team with a QB committed to UCLA begins this group of ranked squads. Early big games such as Helix of La Mesa vs St. Francis of Mountain View and Newbury Park hosting Long Beach Millikan also were attractive enough to us to put both teams in these rankings. We do look at others doing […]
All-State Softball Frosh Watch List
As promised, here’s a look at a list of top freshman softball players from the 2024 season from around the state that likely will be making all-state teams down the road. This isn’t an all-state team since the same format as the others can’t be duplicated, but it’s as close as we can get. These...
St. Mary’s Breaks Title Drought
Rams storm back from early 1-0 deficit to beat Rocklin, 6-1, on Thursday night to grab their first CIF Sac-Joaquin Section D1 title since 2012. State’s No. 8 team also probably will be seeded no lower than No. 2 in next week’s CIF NorCal D1 regional playoffs due to No. 5 Valley Christian’s upset loss […]
NEW Baseball State TOP 35 Rankings

State Stat Stars of the Week
This feature serves as our statewide collection of milestone achievements in California high school sports.

This week’s honor roll covers the past two weeks due to our schedule being different last week with...

The funnel this week is even narrower than last week as the 2023 football season winds down and we get close to switching our Players of the Week from football to basketball. Despite the number of teams in action being nearly halved this past week, we still found six worthy honorees. We have one who […]
