Photos by Beth Oualline & scoring plays from Darren Baumunk Football: Two of the 30 football programs from the 210 Prep Sports coverage zone finished the regular season unscathed. In previous years, that would earn you a first-round home game against another league’s No. 3 or No. 4 team. Northview and Bonita both entered the […]

Photo by Carlo Montalbo (@Carlo.Montalbo on Instagram) Football: Marko Luera is going to put his fingers into the turf on Friday night for the 45th consecutive time as a member of the Glendora High School offensive line. In the last four years, no one has more starts than Luera. And no one could. You see, […]

Football: When the CIF-SS playoffs get underway this week, Damien and Rancho Cucamonga will be without a pair of key players. For the few that haven’t heard, the end of Friday’s Baseline League showdown between Damien and their hosts from Rancho Cucamonga was exciting, consequential and unfortunately, it turned ugly. Trailing 34-31, and with just […]
Girls Athlete of the Week: The Northview flag football program is just one win from becoming the first San Gabriel Valley area team to win a CIF-SS championship in this inaugural season. This past week, the Vikings secured quarterfinal and semifinal round victories on Tuesday and Saturday. Five days ago, NHS claimed an 18-12 victory […]
Pictured L-R: Northview’s Keanu Tauvao (by Gwen Pointer) & Bonita’s Noah Mikhail (by Beth Oualline) Football: Of the 30 football programs this site covers, 21 were awarded spots in Friday’s first round of the CIF-SS playoffs. For the time being, it appears that we are stuck with the current postseason format, which is solely based […]
Football: To say Compton struggled in Saturday night’s American-Metro Conference game at Chaffey would be a massive understatement. The Tartars were able to manage just one first down in a 55-0 loss in Rancho Cucamonga. Chaffey had a 270-13 advantage in total offense. Julian Viramontes completed 9 of 12 for 98 yards. Viramontes connected with […]
Football: There was zero chance that Orange Coast College was going to give their visitors from Mt. SAC a challenge. The Pirates have just one win in 2024, and the Mounties are the No. 1 program in California. And the score represented the stark difference in talent. MSAC scored 48 points before OCC booted a […]
Football: It had been 41 days since the Citrus College football program had won a game on the field. Technically, an October 19th forfeit victory over SBVC counts as a win. But on the field, the Owls had fallen to Mt. SAC (41-20), Golden West (45-7) and Cerritos (33-24) by a combined margin of 119-51 […]
Boys Athlete of the Week: Anthony Gonzales had quite the final regular season game of his prep football career.

Photos and game info from Josh Thompson (Chino Valley Champion) Football: Covina had won five consecutive games as it entered its week-10 showdown with Chino. Last season, the Cowboys claimed a 13-point victory over the Colts to secure an outright Sierra League championship. And on Friday, Chino earned a share of the Hacienda League title […]
Photos by Carlo Montalbo (@Carlo.Montalbo on Instagram) & game info from Zack Morton Football: Charter Oak took a 49-21 thumping last week in their own stadium. The Chargers knew it almost certainly ended any chances of a Sierra League title. So, how would COHS respond to a disappointing week-nine loss to Bonita? Well, they answered […]
Football: With a loss at Los Altos in Friday’s regular season finale, South Hills would have dropped the final three games on its schedule for the sixth consecutive year. The Huskies entered week-10 having lost a pair of Hacienda League games to Chino (21-14) and Covina (40-35). For the record, those two close losses came […]
Photos Beth Oualline Football: The Bonita football program wrote itself into the school’s record book on Friday night. The Bearcats cruised to a 33-6 victory at Colony.
