: : : Does anyone have any knowledge about how CIF creates the sections? I know it makes sense geographically but is anything else taken into account?
: : : Are Southern Section D2 teams equivalent to D2 teams in La City Section?
: : Southern D2 teams are equal to or greater than Open Division City Section teams, City Section D1 teams usually end up in Division 4 when State pairings are done. City D2 champs can end up in D5
: Is Southern Section the most competitive section in CA?
Prior to fairly recent coaching retirements at Westchester and Fairfax HS's the best City Section teams were as good as any in the state. Not the case anymore as the talent that would have gone to Fairfax, Westchester, Birmingham or Taft now goes to the Mission League.
