NAME THE TOP 10 HS TEAMS IN SO CAL

[maxedout007]

I'm sure its going to be a close one between Hart and Pacifica for who will be #1 in the nation. If not Hart this year, then for sure next year.
Valencia will still be strong(not as strong but still strong) with Spigner and Madison(both committed to Tennessee i believe) and Lelani ripping the crap out of the ball as usual. They have rich winning tradition in the Foothill league and don't think they aren't ready to win another back to back league title!

Christian League -

Pomona Catholic will win league again - has most players returning from last year and have added a couple of bats.
Aquinas will compete with their pitching. Will have to play a tougher non-league schedule to get ready for league.
Western Christian - most improved team, got new pitcher. Could be a surprise
Ontario Christian - Lost too much to graduation. Could be a long season.
Arrowhead Christian - A rebuilding year.
Loma Linda - Well, they are still Loma Linda

Hart beat royal 1-0 , Not a pretty game at all, I think both teams can play better than they did, I still think Hart will make some waves when it counts.

[until the last out]

I heard that Hart lost 1-0 to Highland.

Rule #1: If you lose to a team from Palmdale, you will not win CIF...much less compete for #1 in the Nation.

Rule#2: Pacifica will not compete for #1 in the Nation. Bad Karma for their rather unceremonious removal of Coach Weil a couple of years ago. Just won't happen.

Comment: Two of the top 20 teams in the Nation, Santiago and Norco, play in the same league....and both teams are better than Hart and Pacifica.

Sam is right on the mark.......Corona Santiago and Norco are 2 very good teams with outstanding pitching....I watched the Norco pitcher this Saturday against Diamond Ranch.....WOW

I actually coached her when she was 7....along with 4 other kids on Norco's roster. Had her on the Jugs gun last year in the playoff game against Ramona topping out at 68mph...consistent at 63 and 64mph...as a sophomore. Kelly Inouye Perez was sitting in front of me....Rob Way stood there and talked to me the whole game...I miss him.

UCLA went for Rodino (Hart) instead. Rodino pitched against us in the last exposure tournament and she can be dominating at 43 feet. Not overpowering, but destroys the hitters' timing and eats them up with location and movement. Not so sure she will be that excellent at 40 feet.

Fantastic curve/drop....My 3rd baseman plays for Diamond Ranch and she was struck out on this pitch...I was standing behind the backstop watching as she was handcuffed....Really strong break on top of the speed. I was impressed!
