Early, Maybe Preseason FB Top 25
How much of a 2020 high school football season in the state to be played remains to be determined and if it starts as scheduled in August is big IF as well. Still, with some other preseason national rankings about to drop, we took the time to compile an early, maybe preseason Top 25. We […]
Girls BB All-State Nominations Part 1
Here’s the girls version of our first run-through of nominees on our board to get us going toward eventual selection for the 40th annual Cal-Hi Sports All-State Teams for girls basketball. These Class of 2020 seniors really deserve the recognition in light of things they may be missing in coming weeks due to the Coronavirus […]
Cali Super Bowl Alums 2020

Preseason FB Ranks Taking Shape
As practices for the 2017 football season get underway in the state, we have a first draft of what the Cal-Hi Sports preseason state rankings may look like with teams that would be in our top 10 as of the beginning of August. We can say for sure the top four won’t change when the […]
FB: Sac-Joaquin Section Top 25 (13)
St. Mary’s being higher-ranked than Folsom proved to be correct as the Rams rolled over the Bulldogs 56-25 to win SJS Division I title. The bigger question for the section rankings, however, is what to do about Del Oro as it looks to win a second straight CIF state title. Should the Golden Eagles continue […]
