Beam-Worthy Champs in SJS
The beam outside of the Golden 1 Center doesn’t get lit for high school games, but the teams that earned CIF Sac-Joaquin Section boys/girls basketball titles on Thursday & Friday are all worthy of being in the spotlight. The Folsom boys and McClatchy girls capped the schedule with D1 titles on Friday and both look […]
SJS D1: Huge Lincoln win not expected
State No. 22 Trojans were too quick on defense and in transition for No. 24 Monterey Trail of Elk Grove in CIF Sac-Joaquin Section D1 quarterfinals, 77-43.

They will now go into the CIF Open Division state final in two weeks to […]
SJS Football Title Game Recaps
Friday’s CIF Sac-Joaquin Section football championships at Hughes Stadium in Sacramento saw one team come up short in trying to get to 13-0, another team succeed in doing that quite easily and finally a thriller in which the winning team three-peated as a section champion. Note: We won’t be able to duplicate these recaps for […]
