Boys & Girls BB State Stat Stars
There’s been several monstrous outings to get details about from the last two weeks, so here they are. On the boys side, we had 53 points from Sanger’s Luke Dillon, 50 from San Ysidro’s Jurian Dixon (that school’s “other” freshman), and 47 from Carmel’s J.T. Byrne. For the girls, how about 50 from freshman phenom...
SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
There were no state record book entries this week but we found some diamonds in the rough and some budding young stars in our four winners, and that’s part of what this feature is all about. We start out in the island city of Coronado just across the bay from San Diego, and then head […]
NEW State Top 25 Boys BB Rankings

NEW State Top 25 Boys BB Rankings
There is a new No. 1, as Sierra Canyon goes back to the top spot following its convincing win over previous No. 1 Rancho Christian. The main question for this week’s boys basketball State Top 25, however, is about No. 2. Do the Eagles fall to No. 2 or No. 3? There is plenty of...

Clash of Californians in NBA
Many think it’ll be the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers playing each other in this year’s NBA Western Conference finals. But for a real clash of Californians, the Clippers meeting the Houston Rockets is more correct. Both of the leading two players for the Clippers and Rockets are from Southern California high schools […]
