Baseball: The Arcadia-Crescenta Valley baseball rivalry in the Pacific League isn’t rooted in love, but it’s certainly built off of respect for one another.

Arcadia got to experience that feeling Tuesday […]

Baseball: Rio Hondo Prep had the opportunity on Tuesday to knock their rival out of the Prep League title chase.

The Spartans claimed a 15-11 victory over visiting Rancho Cucamonga on Monday, and with two games to play, Damien holds […]

Softball: When Hailey Yoshida left Westridge after two dominant seasons in the circle (and at the plate), some had to wonder how she’d do in a league with more depth and competition. And being the competitor that she is, Yoshida would completely understand those doubts. To make matters even tougher, the school she chose (Alhambra) […]
