Football: So far, so good. Covina cruised to its second victory of the 2024 season. The Colts opened week zero with a 51-14 victory at Cal High, and last night, they breezed past Baldwin Park, 42-7, at Covina District Field. CHS scored the game’s first 21 points, and the outcome was never in doubt. Jake […]
Photos by Josh Thompson (Chino Valley Champion) Football: Through week one of the 2024 season, the Charter Oak football program has already matched its regular season win total in 2023. In week zero, the Chargers trounced Canyon Country, 44-6, behind 293 yards passing and three TD’s from their junior quarterback, Corin Berry. Last night, the […]
Football: Maranatha senior Miles O’Malley earned himself a spot in some very rarified air on Friday evening. And far more important to O’Malley and his teammates, the Minutemen improved to 2-0 after a 35-21 victory over their visitors from Fullerton High School. The Indians led by seven points in the second half, but MHS closed […]
Photos by Beth Oualline Football: Bonita was less than one minute away from opening the 2024 season at 2-0. The Bearcats led their visitors from Ontario Christian by eight points. OCHS had the ball at their own 41-yard line. And the young man leading the Knights’ offense (Daniel Mielke) just happened to be the same […]
Photos by Carlo Montalbo (@Carlo.Montalbo on Instagram) Football: For the second time in as many games, the Glendora offense was struggling to find a rhythm. In week zero, Hunter Lemos booted a 40-yard field goal on the first drive of the game, and the Tartans suffered a 20-3 setback at the hands of visiting Chino […]
Boys Water Polo: The West Covina boys’ water polo program secured victory No. 1 of the 2024 season. The Bulldogs headed home from Cerritos with a 10-6 victory. WCHS led 5-0 at the half and 10-1 in the second half. Matthew Ugarte had 13 saves in goal for West Covina. Adam Elhuessiney led the way […]
Football: There’s something in the water at Monrovia High School. Whether it’s Noah Rodriguez, Brian Salazar or Jesse Saucedo at quarterback, year after year, the Wildcats continue to put up huge numbers offensively. And Thursday night was no different, as MHS hosted Eagle Rock. Monrovia scored 42 first-half points, and they held on for a […]
Football: Monrovia opened the 2024 season both impressively and balanced. The Wildcats cruised to a 35-7 victory over their visitors from Palmdale. After a scoreless first quarter, MHS tallied 14 points in the second quarter, and put the game on ice with three TD’s in the third. Monrovia had 523 yards of total offense. Jesse […]
Football: Unlike the famous saying, Northview hopes what happens in Vegas follows them home to Covina. The Vikings made a 245-mile drive to Sin City, and they came home with a 33-0 victory at Durango High School. The last time we saw Erik Jimenez play, he left the field with an injury in a first-round […]
Thanks to Mercado Productions for the video recap and Leo Dignadice for the photos Football: Etiwanda opened the 2024 season in dominating form. The Eagles crushed their hosts from Grand Terrance, 55-0, on Friday evening. Keegan Campuzano completed 13 of his 23 pass attempts for 219 yards. Campuzano tossed three TD passes and didn’t turn […]
A big thank you to Harry Joe for the stats & Tim Lunney for the photos Football: Rio Hondo Prep opened defense of its 2023 CIF-SS Division 9 championship on Saturday night at Kare Park. On the very first play of the game, Elias Har picked off Francis Parker quarterback Daniel Gilmor to set the […]
Football: It wasn’t so much the way they started. It was all about the way South Hills finished on Friday night. The Huskies trailed 15-10 at Baldwin Park in the 2024 season opener. But SHHS would outscore BPHS, 42-14, the rest of the way, and they went on to claim a 52-29 victory. South Hills […]
Football: Maranatha spotted visiting Lakeside a 12-0 first-quarter lead in the 2024 season opener last night. The Minutemen, though, rebounded with 21 points in the second quarter, and they went on to claim a 34-26 victory at MHS. Luke McNulty got off to a great start to his senior campaign. McNulty completed 18-of-27 for 301 […]
Photo courtesy of Edwin Granada Jr. Football: The fourth and final season of the Jake Duronslet era got off to a rousing start. Covina’s record-breaking and all-time passing leader had the offense in midseason form on Friday night. The Colts cruised to a 51-14 victory at Cal High in Whittier in the 2024 season opener […]
Football: It’s one thing to know what San Dimas is going to do with the football. It’s a completely different thing to stop it. For the longest time, SDHS’ success has revolved around a run-heavy offense, which also allows them to control the time of possession battle almost every Friday night. And such was the […]
Photos by Beth Oualline Football: Considering it was a week-zero game, the Bonita football program looked pretty polished on Friday evening. Bo Beatty and Steve Bogan might differ with that assessment, but that’s their job to keep their players humble, and to strive for as close to error-free football as humanly possible. The Bearcats never […]
Photos by Josh Thompson (Chino Valley Champion) & Gustavo Vargas Football: Don’t let the final score fool you, Ayala dominated Colony, 28-14, in Thursday’s season opener at AHS. The Bulldogs led 21-0, 28-7 and they took a knee at the 1-yard line in the waning moments instead of punching it in. Ayala got the ball […]
Thanks to Steve Ramirez for the stats and video Football: Bishop Amat seemed to dominate in every way possible on Thursday night. The Lancers cruised to a 49-6 victory over their visitors from West Covina in the season opener for both programs. Amat scored the game’s first 21 points and the last 29. They had […]
Editor’s Note: I somehow lost my phone in the parking lot after the game at Citrus College, so my stats/info will be very limited in this story. Football: It wasn’t pretty, but a week-zero win is always a good thing. After a slow offensive start in the first half, Chino Hills settled down and claimed […]
Football: Pictured L-R: Noah Penunuri & Nate Curtis return this Saturday for the defending CIF-SS Division 9 champions from Rio Hondo Prep. Week Zero Schedule: Thursday: West Covina at Bishop Amat Colony at Ayala Damien at La Serna Chino Hills at Glendora Friday: Azusa at Duarte Muir at Bonita Canyon at Charter Oak Santa Monica […]
