Photos by Ryan Tomey: Football: By Brian Reed-Baiotto, Sports Editor St. Francis came out and throttled visiting St. Paul, 54-0, on Saturday night, and closed out the 2021 spring football season in style. And as much as the result and highlight-reel plays throughout the contest were memorable, it was the obvious showing of love and […]
Baseball: Two of the SGV’s best baseball programs met up Saturday for a doubleheader. Rancho Cucamonga defeated San Dimas, 8-3, in game one.

Photos by Chris Karp Baseball: Marshall Fundamental did something on Friday that good teams do. They make short work of programs that aren’t on their level. The Eagles improved to 5-0 overall and 3-0 in Mission Valley League play after a 15-1 victory over Rosemead in five innings. Travis Delgado got the win. Delgado went […]
A big thanks to Mario Veliz @mvscreations_ for these photos: Football: By Brian Reed-Baiotto, Sports Editor La Salle showcased a balanced offense and swarming defense in Friday’s 31-7 Del Rey League beatdown of visiting St. Anthony.

Baseball: It’s been exactly two weeks since Charter Oak last won a baseball game. To be fair, they’ve only played twice over that stretch and the program finally got a chance to go out and change course on Friday. And it took a four-hit shutout by senior Chris Ceballos to get the job done. Ceballos […]
Football: Braydon Brus had a pretty epic Thursday. The Glendora junior got an offer from UCLA earlier in the day. And the Tartans best athlete finished off the night with 239 yards rushing and four touchdowns. Glendora defeated Bonita, 35-28, to close out the abbreviated 2021 spring football season at 4-1.
