IST ROUNDs Were NOT for the Weak at Heart.
Biggest SHOCKER Imho...ARCHBISHOP .MITTY travels to the Wilds of the Central Valley and OVERWHELMS #1 CLOVIS HIGH. 3--0 AT their place.! Maybe the Fresno Bee has the explanation. ===========
NONE of the Div One matches were Close. But another surprise came in San Jose . ..BISHOP O'DOWD has a Big REP... BUT it was as if they didn't show up at VALLEY CHRISTIAN who handed the Dragons a 3-0 Beat down. .
.=================
SANGER does as good a job at hosting as any since Chico trny days. But that does not carry over to matches, as the Host dimissed once mighty St.Francis in the minimum 3 sets

....OVER and OVER....SANTA CRUZ has to PROVE they are One of he BIG DOGS, If not the BIGGEST. They're working on that last part, after they proved it to FOOTHILL. 3-1.The NCS..Falcons can say at least we got one set, which none of the other three losing teams managed
==================================
10-12 Years ago SECTIONS were more like Other Countries. There was very little intersection play**. .BACK about 2009 or 10 ..FOOTHIILL is Ripping all Opposition. Somehow they are put in touch with Bellarmine. No one has been down to the "South Bay" before, but a match is set. with that storied program.. It was a weekday game and a bit of a let down to hear that Bellls WON 3-1 . Hmm. Everyone moved on until the news that the FALCONS leading scorer was Not even at the match??,WTH?? No one who knew was talking..
Various rumors had to suffice, but no facts. Coach Collns (Dusty) made sure of that. A year later from a school employee I got the story. Their 6'2" leaping OH... caught on campus in Illegal actions. (no need for specifics) He was ticketed for expulsion. The senior did get some amendment so he could graduate. Where does that leave the team and the Coach. Dusty arrainged for a the team to gather and have this -full of himself- young man attend. Attend so he'd apologize face tc face to all those teammates..Gotta wonder if this wasn't the steepest penalty.

STATE --DIVISION 2 Notice amomg 8 good teams, 3 WINS were taken by SAC teams. While NCS absorbed 3 losses. SAN LUIS OBISPO in Walnut Creek UPSETS host Northgate in Five, the last, a screaming 20 -18. I hope they stay local as Thursday, SLO goes even further North, to Jesuit in Carmiicheal (SAC), Down & back North is like 8 hrs. Speaking of JESUIT , They didn't have much trouble with Castro Vallley, Whose West Alamea league is so big, to play home & home does NOT leave many dates for travel or "exploritory' matches. i.e. clueless on SAC teams..The only thing I can guess as a reason for an underwhelming effort.. . .. OK. We have to wonder if PLEASANT GROVE Coach Contreras realizes what a SERVICE to the entirety of NorCal his Eagles ellimnation of Buchanan is. .Their 5 set loss was a Nightmare come True for their self styled Prince of Coaches, .On return home to Clovis, he must expalin to a small group of aquaintances where he's been "Elk Grove"which will puzzle them.. Who beat you? "Pleasant Grove". which only deepens their dismay.. Ask 4 other coaches. they'll say little or nothing. Which is a "Tell" All so PERFECT for a guy that avoided & dismissed playing in the Other Sections of North Calif. as beneath him. Don't believe me, . Ask 4 other Coaches over there. They'll say little or nothing. That's the"Tell". . PG advances to a monster Face off Vs. RIO AM
