: : : OPEN: HONDA CENTER
: : : Etiwanda vs Sierra Canyon- The way SC is playing they could beat College teams. Coach Komaki has her best team of all time and its not close. Add to it the coaching advantage and this could be a 25 point blow out.
: :
: : : D1 HONDA CENTER
: : : Orange Lutheran vs Marlborough- Both teams are on a roll. This is a very even matchup but with both teams having nice size and solid guard play. I will take Marlborough in a close one
: : : 2AA COLONY HS
: : : La Salle vs San Juan Hills- Both teams very well coached. La Salle is trying to repeat as the father and son coaching team will have them we'll prepared. Both teams have stellar guard play, with La Salle liking a defensive low scoring game and SJH wanting to push the tempo and have the game in the 70's. La Salle is too tough, they win by 7.
: : : 2A MIRA COSTA HS
: : : Brentwood vs Leuzinger- Wow. Great matchup of size and athleticism for Leuzinger vs the stellar guard play of Brentwood. Brentwood shoots lights out while Leuzinger pounds the ball inside. They is an awesome matchup with the score possibly being in the 70's. I have to take Leuzinger in a close one.
: : : 3AA COLONY HS
: : : Los Osos vs Flintridge Prep- Solid matchup with the excellent guard trio of Los Osos vs Flintridge Prep and Chia. What a player she is. I think Prep can keep it close but I have to go with the deeper faster team. Los Osos by 7.
: : : 3A COLONY HS
: : : Rancho Christian vs Chino- Rancho Christian has beaten everyone by 30 plus. Thats what happens when you bring a club guy in to a new program. Nothing will change here.
: : : Rancho Christian by 25
: : : 4AA EDISON HS
: : : Buena Park vs Rialto- Both teams are very good but I have to take Buena Park with Jeff Sink on staff to have the coaching and preparation edge in this one. Buena Park by 5
: : : 4A MIRA COSTA HS
: : : Notre Dame Academy vs Oakwood- Very close matchup here of two private school programs not far apart. Oakwood beat a solid Crossroads team so I give the matchup to them in this one. Oakwood by 5
: : : 5AA EDISON HS
: : : St Margaret's vs Gahr- #1 Seed ST Margaret's should have an easy time with Gahr. Gahr has made anime run to make it this far but may come up short. St Marg's by 11
: : : 5A MIRA COSTA HS
: : : Oak Park vs St Monica- This should be a blowout. Oak Park has beaten solid D1 teams and played a very strong schedule. St Monica is in the right division but is not near the caliber of Oak Park. They have also come from a weak league and a bad schedule strength. Oak Park can name the score.
: : Lasalle plays Hart not san juan
: :Hart beats Lasalle
Etiwanda Wins. They did it once before, they can do it again.
Marlborough Wins
La Salle Wins
Leuzinger EASY WIN.
Flintridge Prep Wins
Rancho Christian WINS
Rialto, Oakwood, St Margaret's all WINS
Oak Park with a walk in the park VICTORY.
The top two games to really watch will be Etiwanda vs SC & Leuzinger vs Brentwood.
