All right, we're just about finished with what happened Friday. We've not really been able to get any news of San Luis Obispo, so here's the last of the Valley. We're still looking for Hemet and the Inland Empire, so any of you out there with details, let us know. And as soon as Pat McKinney is finished with his San Diego report, we'll have that too. In the meantime, here are the remainder of the LA City Section Valley games played on Friday.
