Football: You’ve probably heard it a thousand times.

Photo of Jake Duronslet Football: Story by John Honell It’s not often that Covina High can look into the stands and find Northview coach Marcel Perez and many of the Vikings players and coaches rooting them on. No, there isn’t a change of heart and the two programs aren’t buddies, but had the Colts won […]
Photos by Michael Watkins Football: By Brian Reed-Baiotto, Sports Editor: The Pasadena City College football program had three things to play for on Saturday night. With a victory, the Lancers would avenge a five-point loss at Grossmont just four weeks ago tonight. The second being the opportunity to win an eighth game, which PCC had […]
Photos and game info/stats by Ryan Tomey Football: All season long, the high-flying St. Francis offense, led by Max Garrison, gets most of the headlines and publicity. And in almost every case, deseredly so. But in Friday’s 28-14 victory at Chaparral in the quarterfinal round of the CIF-SS Division 4 playoffs, you have to tip […]

The Huskies, however, got seven points in the third period and eight more at the end of the fourth […]

On Friday night, St. Pius X-St. Mathias, held off the Kares, 34-20, in the quarterfinal round of the CIF-SS Division 7 playoffs. The Warriors made an early statement, scoring on […]
Football: They say defense wins championships. And while Claremont is still two wins away from a potential CIF-SS Division 9 title, the Wolfpack saw its defense control and frustrate top-seeded Laguna Beach all night. Claremont thumped the visiting Breakers, 38-7, in the quarterfinal round of the D-9 playoffs. One week after shutting out undefeated Arroyo, […]

Photos by Miranda Saiz Football: It’s been said the true measure of one’s character is the way in which we respond to our failures. Heading into the final week of the regular season, Northview needed just a win over a Los Altos program that was 1-8 to claim the outright Valle Vista League championship. Unfortunately […]

And over that stretch, the CHS defense has shut out three opponents, including the last two. On Friday, Claremont went to El Monte to take on unbeaten Arroyo in […]
