Photos by Carlo Montalbo i4Pix Photography (smugmug.com) and stats/game info by Zack Morton: Football: To improve their chances of a CIF-SS playoff berth, Glendora needed and earned a victory on Thursday night. One week after a disappointing 30-point loss at Colony in the Citrus 4 League opener, GHS ran away with a 48-14 decision over […]
Pictured L-R: Adam and Austin Urena College Football: By Brian Reed-Baiotto It’s not possible for an athlete that stands just 5-foot-8 to start, let alone thrive at quarterback or wide receiver at the collegiate level. Just ask 99-percent of college scouts and coaches. But don’t tell that to twin brothers, Adam and Austin Urena. The […]

Football: Considering where the Maranatha football program has recently come from, to the spot they are today, is nothing short of remarkable. In Rand Holdren’s first season (2021), MHS was 1-7, they were undermanned, and as harsh as it might sound, the Minutemen were irrelevant in the big picture. Maranatha finished the year with seven […]

Photos and game info from Ryan Tomey Football: The last time the St. Francis football program won a game at Cathedral, Jack Jacobs and Devyn Turner were just 10 years old.

Photos by Gwen Pointer & Josh Thompson Football: On Friday night, South Hills demonstated once again that the program is making undeniable steps forward. The Huskies started 2022 with a pair of wins over Diamond Ranch and Covina. South Hills, however, was mired in a four-game losing streak and hadn’t won a game since August […]
Football: Photo by Alex Veliz Editor’s Note: a photo gallery will be added to this story on Saturday By Brian Reed-Baiotto, Sports Editor How would La Salle respond to last week’s 61-6 thumping at the hands of St. Pius in the Del Rey League opener? Quite well. The Lancers got four TD passes from quarterback […]
Football: The one SGV area program that has accomplished more in 2022, but gotten the least coverage or respect is the Azusa High School football program. And I won’t pretend the Aztecs schedule is anything that resembles a murderers-row, but they have decimated everyone that stands in their way. After Friday’s 70-0 beatdown of Workman, […]

Pictured: Covina’s Ronnie Ropke Football: To say Covina has found its stride offensively would be an understatement. The Colts began the 2022 season scoring 14, 14 and 12 points in consecutive losses to South Hills, Diamond Bar and Northview, respectively. Fast forward three games, and CHS has defeated Bell Gardens, Sierra Vista and Montclair by […]
Photos by Gwen Pointer Thanks to South Hills coach Calderon, & Claremont’s Hile for these game notes Football: Since starting the season 2-0, South Hills has now lost its last four games. On Friday, the Huskies fell, 28-13, at Claremont High School. But don’t think for a moment this program isn’t heading in the right […]

Photos by Gus Vargas College Football: By Brian Reed-Baiotto, Sports Editor Citrus College made some history on Saturday night. The Owls defense held their ground on a pair of late Antelope Valley drives, and edged the visiting Marauders, 14-10, to remain unbeaten. It’s the program’s first 5-0 start in 17 years. Citrus took a 7-0 […]
Football: Maranatha’s unbeaten streak continued on Friday night. In a game that was nowhere near as close as the final score, the Minutemen defeated Whittier Christian, 35-27, in the Cottonwood League opener at Whittier College. MHS is now 5-0-1 in 2022. Maranatha forced a three-and-out on the first drive of the game, and the Minutemen […]

Story by Shaun Kelley & photos from RT Tolentino Football: Shortly before Thursday’s showdown with Northview, Bonita senior Georgie Markossian got a call that his mom was going into emergency surgery. That’s something no one wants to hear, and it would seem reasonable or even likely that Markossian would have difficulty dedicating 100 percent of […]
