NCS: Epic Pitching, Sad Situation
The CIF North Coast Section D1 baseball final between Granada of Livermore and De La Salle of Concord came within one hit of both starting pitchers throwing seven-inning no-hitters, but after 10 innings on Friday of 0-0 action it couldn’t be completed as darkness set in at Monte Vista High in Danville. The historical final had to be completed on Saturday at Granada where the host Matadors won their first NCS title with a 1-0 win in 14 innings. De La Salle’s 33-game playoff win streak also came to an end.

History had to wait in the CIF North Coast Section D1 baseball championship since the game between state No. 3 Granada of Livermore and No. 12 De La Salle of Concord that began on Friday in Danville couldn’t be finished with the score at 0-0 after 10 innings.
The outstanding pitching that started on Friday continued with different pitchers on Saturday. The contest eventually was decided in the 14th inning when De La Salle couldn’t take advantage of a great situation in the top half (runners on second and third with one out) but then Granada finally struck. A.J. Martinez delivered the game-winning hit that scored Parker Warner to give the Matadors a 1-0 win.

Warner also pitched the four shutout innings on Saturday. Patrick Curran pitched for De La Salle and had three shutout innings before finally surrendering the game-winning hit by Martinez, which came just over the glove of high-leaping DLS shortstop Tyler Spangler.
The victory not only improved Granada’s season record to 29-1 but should lock up the top seed for the CIF Northern California D1 playoffs. Pairings and complete seedings will be announced by the CIF on Sunday with the first round coming on Tuesday. The Matadors also celebrated their first NCS crown.
De La Salle was not only looking to win a seventh straight section title, but also had a 33-game playoff win streak snapped. It is the second-longest playoff win streak in state history, trailing only the 40-game streak by Central Catholic of Modesto set between 2000 and 2009 when the Raiders won 10 straight section titles. De La Salle needed a seventh section title in a row to break a tie with several schools also with six for second-place on that all-time state list.
Both head coaches — Corrigan Willis of Granada and David Jeans of De La Salle — said after Friday that they were going to approach Saturday as if it was a seven-inning game. Neither probably envisioned 10 innings weren’t going to be enough on Friday and they got four more on Saturday.
There wasn’t a hit by either side until two outs in the top of the sixth inning when De La Salle’s Joe McGee laid down a bunt that the Granada catcher couldn’t make a clean throw on to first base. After a walk put runners on first and second, Alec Blair popped up for the third out.

Through seven innings, that bunt was the only hit given up by Granada’s Jake Sekany. De La Salle’s R.J. Meyn did even better with a no-hitter. Sekany (ended with six strikeouts) then gave up a solid single to Sean Stafford to start the eighth inning, but a strikeout, fly out and force out ended the threat. Meyn (also had six strikeouts) walked the first batter in the bottom of the eighth and the Matadors then had runners on first and second with one out when the next batter bunted and the DLS catcher tried to get the out at second base (unsuccessful). The next batter, though, hit into what one might call a tailor-made double play.
With Meyn out of the game in the bottom of the ninth, Granada came within a whisker of winning the title. A single by Mikey Boyd, a walk to Riley Winchell and a single by A.J. Martinez (which was hit too hard to enable Boyd to score) loaded the bases. Peyton Richards then hit a grounder to Hank Tripaldi of the Spartans, who elected to try for a double play to second base instead of throwing home to get the lead runner. Shortstop Tyler Spangler got the out at second, then threw to first where a bang-bang play occurred. If it weren’t for the stretch by first baseman Stafford, Richards would have been safe. Instead, the umpire ruled him out and the game continued.
In the 10th, De La Salle didn’t score with runners on first and second with two outs while Granada went 1-2-3.
The coaches and NCS officials then met to decide to continue playing. One side could have batted, but it may have been much darker for the other team. As the top seed and designated home team, Granada had the choice of playing the continuation of the game at home on Saturday and that’s what happened.
One day earlier, we went to the CIF Sac-Joaquin Section D1 baseball final at Sacramento City College (it has lights). In fact, we’ve gone to CIF section baseball finals in every major section (except SF, Oakland & Northern) and they are all held in places where continuation of a championship due to darkness would never happen.
Even before the darkness, the field at Monte Vista was unable to seat the 1,000 or so people who came to the Granada-De La Salle game. Many fans had to peak through outside fences to see what was going on. People there should know how much worse their kids have it for their baseball championships compared to every other major section in the state. NCS officials should be pressured to make changes.

Mini-Stampede Hits Livermore
State No. 1 St. Francis of Mountain View and its state-ranked rivals from Archbishop Mitty (San Jose) both won twice on Saturday in a hastily-arranged doubleheader with Livermore schools.
When the Livermore Recreation and Parks Department deemed the field at Robertson Park unplayable on both Thursday and Friday, it spelled doom for the 30th Annual Livermore Stampede.
However, after the announcement was made at 6:30 am on Friday morning, everyone was scrambling since losing the Stampede’s five games in Northern California, where most teams have played less than half the games of teams so far in Southern California. That’s hard to replace, but the schools involved are doing their best.
Not only were the head coaches of the three traveling teams, Cal-Hi Sports No. 25 Whitney (Rocklin), Sacramento Sheldon, and Petaluma Casa Grande, on their laptops in the host hotel on Friday morning busily at work to try and find replacement games for the five they lost with the cancellation of the Stampede, tournament director and Livermore assistant coach Toff Garcia and head coach Andy Paulazzo were busy behind the scenes trying to salvage something out of what was expected to be a great event in the 30th anniversary of the first Stampede.
The three travelling teams went home but not before all had secured some games. Local Stampede teams also were scurrying to find games as well.
Around 9 am on Friday, Paulazzo texted to say his Cowboys’ girls were going to play Stampede participant Carondelet of Concord on Friday afternoon on its artificial turf field, and that four Showcase games were being arranged for Saturday at Junction Middle School in Livermore, a four field complex that also serves as the home field for Livermore.
Two fields were made more than adequately playable and the plan was to play two games at a time in a miniature style format just like the Stampede.
Livermore (13-3) got a 15-0 run rule victory on Friday over Carondelet and for Saturday the Cowboys’ girls would host state No. 1 original Stampede participants St. Francis (Mountain View) and No. 7 Archbishop Mitty (San Jose) at 11 am and 1 pm, respectively.
Mitty was scheduled to face Amador Valley (Pleasanton) at 11 am and St. Francis was to play Granada (Livermore) at 1 pm, but when that team decided not to play Amador Valley took a second game and faced off with St. Francis.
Despite the short notice several hundred fans came out and got to see some great softball, and the chuck wagon with tri-tip and BBQ chicken was rolled out to feed the hungry throng.
St. Francis (13-0) picked up right where it left off after winning a Co-Championship at the Michelle Carew Classic two weeks ago in Anaheim.
Head coach Mike Oakland went with Texas A&M-committed and early Ms. Softball State Player of the Year hot candidate Kate Munnerlyn in the circle against Livermore, and the left-handed ace tossed a 5-0 shutout on a one-hitter with 11 strikeouts and two bases on balls. Only a leadoff single in the top of the seventh by Minnesota-bound Livermore senior Jae Cosgrove separated Munnerlyn from a no-hitter.
While Munnerlyn and Boise State-bound senior pitcher Shannon Keighran get most of the props, Munnerlyn was obviously on but the big bat came from Peyton Tsao. The Lancers’ second-sacker went 3-for-3 with a home run, double, two RBI and a run scored. The other two runs for St. Francis came in the top of the seventh when a single by Keighran drove in sophomore and coaches’ daughter Jamie Oakland and Idaho State-bound senior shortstop Rebecca Quinn.
“I look up to the older girls on this team,” Tsao remarked. “They’re so supportive of me and always have my back.”
In the second game for the Lancers it was Tsao once again taking center stage. In an 8-2 victory over Amador Valley, she blasted two home runs and had four RBI and two runs scored. Tsao now has five home runs this season. The Lancers other runs came on a three-run home run by Munnerlyn that provided some additional support for Keighran who was in the circle.
Keighran ended up pitching an eight-hitter and gave up one earned run with five strikeouts and no walks.
Archbishop Mitty (11-1) won both of its games on Saturday, 7-2 over Amador Valley and 9-5 versus Livermore.
Against Amador Valley, it was Kentucky-bound senior Lindsey Miller staking the Monarchs to a 2-0 on a second-inning two-run home run. Mitty sophomore ace Kayleigh Mace only gave up four hits and two walks but Amador Valley touched her up for two runs in the top of the sixth and the game ended up going to extra innings.
Mitty finished it off in the eighth on a game-winning RBI single by sophomore basketball superstar and Monarchs shortstop McKenna Woliczko, followed by an RBI single by UCLA-bound senior Corri Hicks, and then Miller closed things out with a long three-run home run that plated Woliczko and Hicks.
In the second game against Livermore, the Monarchs broke a 1-1 tie with five runs in the top of the fifth when they sent 11 batters to the plate. Livermore junior starter Savanna Froke gave up three runs on an RBI single by senior Keira Brady, followed by a single by Miller that drove in Brady and Woliczko, who had doubled. Hicks was walked intentionally and advanced on the hit by Miller. A two-run single ended the inning.
Along with Tsao of St. Francis, Miller ended up as the overall hitting stars for the mini Stampede. In the two games combined, she was 4-for-8 with two home runs, a double, seven RBI and five runs scored, six if you count the courtesy runner for the Monarchs catcher. She was also perfect behind the plate in 22 total chances and 21 put outs. She also threw out a runner trying to steal.
“I was feeling it today. I was seeing the ball really well,” Miller said with a huge grin. “We’ve been doing a lot of just focusing on getting your pitch, and today they were throwing me my pitch.”

Boys BB State Team of the Year 2024

Harvard-Westlake officially added to the all-time list of State Teams of the Year that goes back more than 120 years. It’s the second straight selection, but doing that is not unusual at all in historical terms. Doing it without any transfers, however, we think has only been done two other times since first official CIF state finals in 1980.

It is incredibly difficult for any team to win the title in the highest division of the CIF state basketball championships, but in historical terms in the last 25 years it’s actually more unique for a team to win the state’s top crown that is not part of a repeat or a three-peat and in one case a four-peat.
Harvard-Westlake of Studio City won its second straight CIF Open Division state title last Saturday night in Sacramento with a 50-45 win over Salesian of Richmond and now the Wolverines also have become the latest team to repeat as State Team of the Year. The all-time list of No. 1 teams goes back more than 120 years based on Cal-Hi Sports research.
There were no CIF state championships in 2020 or 2021 due to COVID, but the State Team of the Year honor earned in 2020 by Sierra Canyon of Chatsworth and the one from 2021 by Centennial of Corona were part of a three-peat and a repeat, respectively. The Trailblazers were selected in 2020 after they won the SoCal Open Division title with no state championship game as the pandemic broke out in a huge way during that March week of 2020. They had won CIF Open titles also in 2018 and 2019. The Huskies won the CIF Southern Section Open Division title in the 2021 spring season, but didn’t go to the SoCal regional playoffs that year. With the normal schedule back in March of 2022, they went all the way to the CIF Open state title.
Four years before Sierra Canyon’s three-year run, Mater Dei of Santa Ana finished on top of the state for four straight seasons from 2011 to 2014 under legendary head coach Gary McKnight. There also were repeats from Westchester of Los Angeles twice in the 2000s, for 2009-2010 and 2004-05, along with a repeat from Artesia of Lakewood for 2006-2007 when future Hall of Famer James Harden was starring for the Pioneers.
Wolverines’ head coach David Rebibo made it a point during the team’s post-game press conference at the Golden 1 Center that his group of seniors did something very special to win two straight Open Division titles with no transfers.
We decided on Monday while adding Harvard-Westlake 2024 to the all-time list to check out other schools that have repeated with no transfers. It’s a small list of only two others since the first CIF state championships held in 1980 — Westchester of Los Angeles for 2009-10 and we think Crenshaw of Los Angeles for 1985-86.
Both of those previously mentioned teams from Centennial and Sierra Canyon had transfers. So did Mater Dei in its run of four in a row. Artesia’s teams with Harden had transfer center Renardo Sidney and that Westchester group of 2004-05 had at least one transfer we found as well.
Going back further than that, at least one transfer was found at Dominguez of Compton (1999-2000), Crenshaw of Los Angeles (1993-94) and St. Joseph of Alameda (1991-92). We don’t think Crenshaw of 1985-86 had a transfer, although sophomore Stevie Thompson played JayVees in 1983-84 after playing one game of varsity ball at St. Anthony of Long Beach as a freshman. Last year’s Harvard-Westlake group did include Hart of Newhall transfer Brady Dunlap, but the senior group this year didn’t. Even so, it’s very rare and that was coach Rebibo’s point.
Harvard-Westlake also has now been State Team of the Year three times. It’s previous No. 1 finish was in 1997 under previous head coach Greg Hilliard. That team, led by twin towers Jason and Jarron Collins, won the CIF D3 state title and was selected over D1 state champion Crenshaw and D2 state champion Dominguez.

Girls BB State Team of Year 2024

Going back-to-back as a State Team of the Year in California girls basketball history isn’t that unusual, so the biggest question in the aftermath of Etiwanda’s CIF Open Division state title game victory over Archbishop Mitty is whether the Eagles will join Mater Dei of Santa Ana next year as the only schools in state history to ever do three in a row. Etiwanda does become the first program in the Open Division era of CIF state basketball history to go back-to-back also as State Team of the Year.

Since the CIF Open Division state playoff format began in 2013, it’s been just a formality to also add the winning team onto the all-time state list of California No. 1 teams. Before that, there was always some suspense about which team might get chosen and there had been non-Division 1 teams that were State Teams of the Year.
Still, there’s always history to explore with any CIF Open Division state champion and it has become customary for us to do that when officially adding that team — in this case Etiwanda — to the all-time state list.
Head coach Stan Delus’s squad is being added for the second straight season after capturing its second straight CIF Open Division state title last Saturday with a 60-48 triumph over Archbishop Mitty of San Jose, which came into the game unbeaten and was No. 1 in the state and national rankings.
While Sierra Canyon of Chatsworth can claim back-to-back CIF Open state titles for 2019 and 2022 since there were no CIF state championships in 2020 or 2021 due to COVID, it’s not the same for State Team of the Year. One was still picked in 2020 with no state title games held (it was La Jolla Country Day) and in 2021 (Corona Centennial) when there was that late spring season with no state finals in March.
Mater Dei of Santa Ana had a run of three straight State Team of the Year honors from 2010 to 2012 under retiring head coach Kevin Kiernan, but the CIF Open Division format began in 2013. Etiwanda therefore has become the first back-to-back State Team of the Year in the CIF Open Division era.
Mater Dei’s run of three straight State Team of the Year selections also is historical because its the only time that has happened since the first honor was determined in the early 1970s by Cal-Hi Sports founder Nelson Tennis.
Can Etiwanda make in three in a row next season and join the Monarchs? Transfers can always complicate the landscape, but despite the graduation loss of McDonald’s All-American Kennedy Smith no one would be wise to count out the Eagles.
Stellar point guard Aliyahna “Puff” Morris will be back for her senior year as will forward Grace Knox, who became a dominant player especially at the end of this season. The expected addition of perhaps the top incoming ninth grader in the nation, 6-foot-4 Sydney Douglas, who is from the Inland Empire, would also be a perfect replacement for Smith. Nothing seems official on that yet, however, other than Sydney’s father, former NFL lineman Rome Douglas, offering the correct pronunciation of Stan Delus’ name last week on X/Twitter.
