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.

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 unfortunately for RHP, five errors cost them nine runs in Tuesday’s 14-8 setback in the second round of the CIF-SS Division 5 […]
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 […]
