Baseball: What are the chances a baseball program could be held scoreless for 10 consecutive innings in a CIF-SS Division 2 semifinal round game and still win? If you’re Etiwanda, apparently, they’re pretty good. Brady Ebel and Yahir Ramirez teamed up to shut out Palos Verdes, and the Eagles scored five runs in the top […]

Baseball: For a school that has an enrollment of just over 500 students, and a program that competes in a league (Olympic) that many people mock, Matt Shupper, his staff and their players continue to battle and excel in a division (2) that most would subjectively agree was too high for the Minutemen. After claiming […]
Baseball: It doesn’t matter what sport it is, every coach dreams of having his or her program peaking for the playoffs. And that’s exactly what’s happening with the Etiwanda High School baseball program. When the Eagles make that 75-mile drive to Palos Verdes for the semifinal round of the CIF-SS Division 2 playoffs, Etiwanda will […]

Baseball: Whatever roadmap Etiwanda coach Don Furnald and his staff put together for the 2022 postseason, their players are carrying it out to a tee. After Friday’s 10-0 victory over visiting Pacifica in the quarterfinal round of the CIF-SS Division 2 playoffs, the Eagles have defeated Temecula Valley, Warren and Pacifica by a combined margin […]

Baseball: Torrance scored three times in the top of the second inning and that was more than enough run support for Thomas Adair, Noah McMinn and Corey Nunez. The Tartars earned their spot in Tuesday’s D-2 semifinal thanks to a 5-1 road victory at Rancho Cucamonga. Thomas Adair went four scoreless innings and allowed four […]

Photos by Gwen Pointer: Baseball: When people talk about baseball coaches in the SGV, Charter Oak’s Elias Chavez doesn’t get as much respect for what he’s built as this writer thinks he should. Just like all programs, the Chargers have their ups and downs in the regular season, but Chavez seems to get his boys […]
Baseball: That was pretty impressive. Etiwanda picked up a 10-1 victory at Warren in the second round of the CIF-SS Division 2 playoffs. The Eagles out-hit the Bears, 15-7. And their rookie pitcher stayed perfect in 2022. Brady Ebel went the distance and allowed one run on seven hits. He didn’t issue a walk and […]
Baseball: Loyola won its third CIF-SS Division 4 playoff game on Tuesday, and for the second consecutive time, it took some late-inning heroics to extend the Cubs season. Trailing 4-3 in the bottom of the seventh, the Cubs scored twice for the walk-off 5-4 victory. With runners on second and third and with one out, […]
Baseball: Cade Nolan was nothing short of incredible on Tuesday afternoon. The Aquinas senior was eight outs from a perfect game, but he’ll happily take a 5-0 victory over Flintridge Prep in the second round of the CIF-SS Division 4 playoffs. Spencer Seid singled with one out in the top of the fifth, and that’s […]

Baseball: If you’re a fan of high-scoring baseball (like a lot of us), San Dimas was the place to be on Tuesday. The Saints hosted Villa Park in a game that featured runs in all seven innings, and both programs combined for 17 runs, 21 hits and six errors. Eight of the 21 hits were […]

Photos by Michael Watkins College Baseball: If you were to ask any of the PCC players or coaches, they would acknowledge without hesitation that the final three weeks of the 2022 season didn’t go as well as they had planned or hoped. The Lancers lost five of their final six conference games and finished in […]
