The (nick)name game

Share: Share on Facebook submit to reddit StumbleUpon Toolbar
 
Sitting in the Portland airport awaiting for my flight home from the CLU-Linfield football game, I'm contemplating the fact that whatever their relative merits athletically, high schools in the Pacific Northwest are way ahead of Southern California when it comes to team names.
Just across the river in Camas, Wash., the nickname for the high school team is the Papermakers. (Yes, it's a mill town.) And in today's Oregonian, coverage of the state soccer championship games includes the girls' 5A championship game between the Bend Lava Bears and the Sherwood Bowmen. For the record, the Lava Bears won 4-2 on penalty kicks after going scoreless in regulation and the overtime.
Oh, and one of the boy's championship games was won by the Oregon Episcopal School Aardvarks.

Gary Fabricus must agree with Bill Belichick. On his first possession of the postseason, the Newbury Park head coach elects to go for it on fourth and 1 from the Panthers 29.

Running back Cameron Roberson gets a yard and the first down and six plays later, Newbury Park takes a 7-0 lead on Jake Geringer's 16-yard scoring strike to Fadi Nassar with 6:12 left in the first quarter.

Righetti, which went three and out on the opening possession of the game, immediately answers with Michael Hale's 64-yard touchdown run, pulling even 7-7 with 5:17 left in the quarter.

Newbury Park needs just four plays to reclaim the lead, 14-7, on Roberson's 32-yard touchdown run with 3:25 left first quarter.

Geringer has completed 7 of his first 9 passes for 108 yards, three and 60 of which to Nassar. The Panthers have 153 yards of total offense on its first 15 plays from scrimmage.

It's chilly and drizzly tonight in Santa Maria, which means perfect weather for a CIF-SS Northern Division football game between two ends of the Northern Division.

Cameron Roberson, Phillip Muscarella and the Newbury Park High football team have their work cut out for them against a Righetti team that has won seven straight games behind 1,000-yard rusher Michael Hale and quarterback Dylan Jones.

"They are definitely a big and physical group of kids," said Newbury Park coach Gary Fabricus.

The Warriors swept through the Pac-7 League for the first time since 1984.

Newbury Park (8-2) only suffered losses to Westlake and Moorpark

Shakeup in Northern Division ranking

Share: Share on Facebook submit to reddit StumbleUpon Toolbar
 
With the CIF-Southern Section postseason football brackets set to be released on Sunday, expect to see a reshuffling of the top four seeds in the Northern Division.

The division's pecking order will change because of No. 4 Westlake's stunning 38-14 win over No. 1 Moorpark last Friday in a Marmonte League matchup of 9-0 teams.

Unbeaten Valencia, which outscored its five Foothill League opponents 252-24, will likely take over the position as the No. 1 seed.

Two-time defending Northern Division champion St. Bonaventure should move up to No. 2.

That leaves Westlake and Moorpark being seeded No. 3 and No. 4, respectively.

Westlake vs. Moorpark

Share: Share on Facebook submit to reddit StumbleUpon Toolbar
 
The game was a monster -- the undefeated Moorpark and Westlake highs football teams locking up for the Marmonte League championship -- and so was the crowd.
Ticket sales reached 7,154, Westlake High officials announced. It was believed to be the largest crowd ever to attend a game at Westlake High.
The host Warriors responded with a monster of a performance.
Playmakers Nick Isham, Tavior Mowry and Nelson Spruce all shined.
So did the Westlake defense.
With a heavy mix of underclassmen, including defensive linemen Justin Solis and Johnny Stuart, the Warriors stymied the Moorpark offense after its initial possession.
Moorpark muscled up, kept mainly to the ground, and marched 80 yards in 18 plays to the tying touchdown with 0:15 seconds left in the first period. The drive lasted nearly nine minutes.
After that, the Musketeers didn't score again until 24 seconds remained in the game.
Senior Michael Tack had two interceptions, including a pick and 15-yard return for a touchdown to hike the lead to 38-7 with 2:52 left in the game. Isham also had an interception from his safety position.
The special team shined, too. Alex Ball consistently reached the end zone with his kickoffs, and booted a 45-yard field goal in the third period.
As for Moorpark, there is precedent that it can rebound.
The two league strongboys were undefeated in league and met for the Marmonte League title in Week 10 in 2006. Moorpark lost that matchup, 23-12, but rallied to reach the Northern Division championship game.

They've come a long way

Ventura County had two teams play in Monday's CIF-SS Girls' Golf Team finals. The Marmonte League was the only league to have two teams make the finals, a tribute to both players and coaches from Westlake and Royal. Scores for the top teams were amazing, including a 368 team score by champion Torrance. It shows how far girls' golf has come in the dozen or so years that it has been around. When they started, there was no way most players could come near par. Todat, players like Westlake's Danielle Kang are routinely under par. Kang, who will play for Pepperdine next Spring, is the best female player to come through the county. She has great natural talent, but more importantly, she is focused on one thing, winning. She takes aim at winning the CIF Individual title on Thursday. Others in that competition are Lauren Diaz-Yi from Westlake, Katherine Liu from Agoura and Shannon Holden of Royal. Diaz-Yi and Holden are freshmen, another indicator of just how good female players have gotten.
