Girls Athlete of the Week:
Chayse Hoon and her teammates have Arcadia off to a great start in 2022.
The Apaches got swept by South Pasadena in their season opener.
Since then, however, AHS has won six consecutive and sit atop the Pacific League standings.
This past week, Arcadia grinded out a five-set victory over Maranatha.
In that match, AHS trailed 0-2 after the first two sets.
And three nights later, the Apaches defeated Burroughs for the first time in five years.
To make it even more satisfying, the AHS victory over the Bears came via sweep.
Hoon has played a starring role all season, and this past week was no different.
She had 30 kills and 10 blocks, but the Arcadia captain also makes contributions you could never see in a stat sheet.
Chayse’s coaches and teammates look to her when a match is on the line, and she hasn’t let them down.
Up next: Arcadia hosts Muir on Tuesday, and travels to Hoover on Thursday in a pair of Pacific League matches.
Quotable:
Arcadia coach, Stephen Bernabe: “She was all-CIF last year and is on track to continue that again this year. Our offense goes through her. She is one of our two captains and a person who has been on varsity the longest. I am enjoying her senior season run.”
AHS set scores this week:
Tuesday: Arcadia defeats Maranatha (17-25, 23-25, 25-21, 25-21 & 15-6)
Friday: Arcadia defeats Burroughs (25-23, 27-25 & 25-21)

Baseball: I’ll start by saying that Chino Hills absolutely earned its 4-3 Baseline League victory over their visitors from Los Osos. The Grizzlies had their chances on Wednesday, they made some mistakes on defense, and they came up short. The Huskies should be commended for securing the No. 3 seed out of the very tough […]
Boys Tennis: Claremont (doubles), Ayala (singles), Glendora (singles) and Alta Loma doubles all went home Wednesday as Palomares League finals champions. Claremont’s Caleb Fong & Mateen Ghafarshad faced their fellow Wolfpack teammates, Liad Geldwet & Josh Bonner. Fong & Ghafarshad cruised in a 6-0 and 6-1 victory in the finals. Ayala’s Brandon Vu claimed the […]
Boys Tennis: Thanks to La Salle coach, Javier Djeu for this season recap: What a tremendous year it was for the Lancers boys’ tennis program. They’ll wrap up their regular season play with individual prelims and finals this week. In doubles, La Salle took first, second and third place. In singles, we took third place […]
Baseball: In yet another recurring plot twist, Damien regained control of the Baseline League penthouse on Wednesday. After the Spartans 6-4 victory over Etiwanda, and with Chino Hills defeating Los Osos, 4-3, DHS enters the final game of the 2024 regular season with a one-half game lead over the second-place Grizzlies. Nathan Ries struggled, but […]

College Baseball: PCC is ending the 2024 regular season portion of their schedule with some momentum. After two consecutive wins over Cerritos and a slugfest victory at Chaffey, the Lancers traveled to San Bernardino Valley College on Wednesday. Jameson Ferraro and Ben Griffith combined to hold the Coyotes bats mostly silent throughout PCC’s 3-1 victory. […]
Editor’s Note: El Monte doesn’t post their roster online, so I couldn’t mention any of their players. Baseball: Marshall Fundamental officially wrapped up the No. 3 seed out of the Mission Valley League. The Eagles cruised to an 11-1 victory over last-place El Monte on Tuesday. With one MVL game to play, Marshall holds a […]
