We’re doing it by compiling updated state records in numerous combined coaching categories, such as most CIF state team titles, most CIF section team titles, most all-time varsity coaching wins and most varsity head coaching seasons.

More Softball Players of the Year
The choices for State Junior Player of the Year, Sophomore Player of the Year and Freshman Player of the Year were equally difficult as for Ms. Softball. There’s not a no brainer of the bunch. We did have one for medium schools, however, since one of our six Ms. Softball finalists was from that category. […]
SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
We have two weeks to go for this feature for this school year and we’ll be looking to feature those baseball and softball players who have led their teams to section titles. It was more challenging than expected in the north since rainouts forced some section finals into this week, but we found two from […]

The first major upset of the section playoffs this year already has taken place as previous No. 4 Grand Terrace fell in its CIF Southern Section Division I first-round game.

For the state rankings, the No. 1 team to start shouldn’t be much of a surprise due to the returning players at defending CIFSS D1 champion Norco. There’s also the usual powerhouse squads […]
NEW Softball State Top 20

Nothing is that stunning in that bracket, but of course causes a lot of...
NEW Softball State Top 20
Yes, it was the calm before the storm for the previous rankings compared to this week’s myriad of moves that had to be made. And when the storm passed, sitting on top of the state — at least for this week — has to be Michelle Carew Classic champion Cathedral Catholic of San Diego. Go...
Preseason Inland Empire FB Team
The Inland Empire region of the CIF Southern Section boasts a great group of receivers and skill position players for the 2017 season, so many of them in fact that some players with D1 offers weren’t all able to be squeezed onto the preseason team, even with six multi-purpose slots. National power Corona Centennial leads...
