College Baseball: Five weeks ago, Mt. SAC was 6-8 in South Coast Conference games and they weren’t on pace to earn a postseason berth. Five weeks later, the Mounties finished in second place after winning 10 of their last 11 games. MSAC tied Long Beach in second at 16-8 in conference, but the Mounties went […]
Baseball: It’s been an uphill climb all season, but the Ayala baseball program is better than its record would indicate. After Friday’s 14-4 beatdown over their visitors from Claremont, the Bulldogs finished 10-5 in Palomares League games. AHS will enter the postseason on a six-game win streak. Ayala out-hit Claremont, 17-8. And it should be […]

South Hills entered the game tied for first place in the Hacienda League with Walnut. And the Mustangs defeated Los Altos, […]
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 […]
