What about monte vista?
North Coast D-1 winner not eligible per NC section
I hope they put someone in the NC Section D-1 over a looser like Freedom!!! They had their shot! They lost.
One and done! BS if they let them play another game.. to get rolled up again by SMHS!
I already tweeted this but it just seems more competitve this way if you compare strength of schedules. McClymonds vs Amador for D5-A and East Nicolaus vs Mendota for D6-A
