State Stat Stars & Record Updates
We begin this week with a salute to two coaches (one baseball, one softball) who both earned their 600th win last week. Baseball’s best also includes an update on state home run season lead after Oaks Christian’s Quentin Young hit a pair of them on Wednesday, a catcher with five RBI at Oracle Park and...
State Baseball/Softball Players of Week
State record implications are there for two of the four we’re honoring this week, but considering the competition involved it was one of the other honorees who perhaps made the biggest impact. Our four winners are from Moreno Valley and Lakewood in Southern California and then it’s Livingston and Loomis for Northern California. We hope […]
NEW State Baseball TOP 35 Rankings
There’s no changes in top six in this week’s rankings after all results from the NHSI in North Carolina are in. No. 1 Corona is no longer unbeaten, but still clearly No. 1 in the state with a loss to the team that won the prestigious tourney. La Mirada also is still No. 2 since...
State Stat Stars & Record Updates
UCLA-bound Jazmine Leyva of South El Monte is closing in on state record for career doubles, but will she get enough pitches to hit? We also have softball players knocking in 12 runs in one game, going 6-for-7 with seven RBI and another with three homers. For baseball, Orland’s Luke Schager breaks a 76-year-old school...
State Softball/Baseball Players of Week
It’s never easy to come up with these four honorees each week and this week we even waited for Monday afternoon games to be played before finalizing two of the winning names. As usual, most of those who gained the final nod have accomplishments both with bat in hand or with ball leaving the hand […]

Manteca’s Slikker Ticks Off The Boxes

State Baseball/Softball Players of Week
With half the team that collaborates on producing the State Baseball-Softball Players of the Week feature unavailable due to Cal-Hi Sports co-founder Mark Tennis being on the road, we were left to our own devices to research and pick the winners, so we put out a call on social media for nominations, and thankfully hit […]
State Stat Stars & Record Updates
It’s a wide range of emerging and senior standouts who had huge totals in recent games.

In baseball, Jackson Balden of Bakersfield Legacy Christian has 20 strikeouts in a perfect game,...
State Baseball/Softball Players of Week
It’s bayou time this week for our Northern California Baseball and Softball State Player of the Week award winners, which may seem a bit strange but both of our honorees are committed to LSU for college in Baton Rouge, La. One of the pair is going to grace the Cal-Hi Sports Online Record Book, and […]
