Preseason State TOP 50 Ranks (31-50)
A team with a QB committed to UCLA begins this group of ranked squads. Early big games such as Helix of La Mesa vs St. Francis of Mountain View and Newbury Park hosting Long Beach Millikan also were attractive enough to us to put both teams in these rankings. We do look at others doing […]
Preseason State TOP 50 FB Ranks (1-10)
It’s now up to nine straight seasons that either Mater Dei of Santa Ana or St. John Bosco of Bellflower has started out No. 1 in the state and for 2024 that means the Monarchs are in that position. They are the defending CIF Open Division state champions and they also have a lot more […]

Will the CIF Central Section have most of the record-breakers once again? All major categories are now updated and […]
Preseason All-San Diego Sec FB Team
We head even further south than Long Beach in the next stop in our annual tour of the state through the selection of preseason football honor squads.

Preseason All-Central Section FB Team
After starting in Orange County, the second stop in our annual tour of the state through the selection of preseason football honor squads is the CIF Central Section.
