What We Saw: De La Salle at Grant
It’s been an up-and-down season so far for Grant of Sacramento, and in Friday night’s game at home against state No. 7 De La Salle of Concord it was an up-and-down game that the Pacers lost, 47-20. De La Salle’s coaches were happy that the offense had a powerful first half, but they were not […]
NorCal Double Dip: Points Galore
On a Friday night and Saturday afternoon, big wins were rung up by Oak Ridge of El Dorado Hills and Archbishop Riordan of San Francisco in matchups of four teams all inside the top 30 of our state rankings. All four teams scored at least 35 points. Note: This is a post only for our...
State TOP 25 Weekend Scoreboard
We were not going to put together a scoreboard this week with two games on the docket to see, but had to change it up with No. 1 Mater Dei of Santa Ana (also No. 1 in the nation) going down in a loss to No. 6 Corona Centennial. Go inside for a preview of […]
State TOP 25 Weekend Scoreboard
In weeks in which we are not able to get out to a game, we will be offering a roundup of scores, highlights and previews of which teams are going to be making the biggest rankings moves for the coming week. Saturday winners now updated. For Friday Sept. 5, the SoCal/NorCal showdown between Mission Viejo […]
What We Saw: Folsom vs Serra SM
While giving up 42 points may not be a good sign for what the state No. 5 Folsom football team wants to accomplish this season, the 56-42 victory on a hot Saturday at Serra of San Mateo cleared a huge hurdle since the Padres had beaten the Bulldogs the past three straight seasons. Ryder Lyons […]
What We Saw: CCSD vs St. Francis MV
Actually seeing teams play from as much of the state as possible has been a goal of ours at Cal-Hi Sports since the early years in the 1980s. That’s partly why it made sense to check out one of the top two teams from the CIF San Diego Section when it played on Friday up […]
What We Saw: Mission V vs Santa Marg
With the offensive players on both teams, Mission Viejo’s 7-3 win on Friday over Santa Margarita in a matchup between two state top five ranked teams was not expected. It also spoiled the debut of first-year head coach Carson Palmer for the Eagles, who has brought an NFL-style approach to the former NFL quarterback’s alma […]
Tustin Football History Highlights
This upcoming season’s team at Tustin High in Orange County looks loaded. If the algorithms work in their favor and the Tillers land in a winnable CIF Southern Section playoff division (not D1), some history could be achieved. We now have all the history figured out as Tustin’s all-time scores since 1922 have been digitized […]
North wins in another Lions’ barnburner
This time, a trick play in the final minutes helped preserve a 42-37 victory when it looked like the South might pull off another win in the final seconds like last year. Zakery Willson from Sierra of Manteca gained MVP honors with three TD passes and one TD run. This event will reach 50 years […]
De La Salle 7th inning rally beats Serra
A baseball team scoring three times in the bottom of the seventh inning to win a major title like the CIF NorCal D1 championship is pretty incredible, but compared to the other two times that the De La Salle of Concord baseball team rallied to win NorCal titles in the last four years what happened […]
