After spending the last week at Duarte watching some talented teams, it was time to put out the first of many Top 20 rankings for this season.
One thing is clear, La Canada appears to be firing on all cylinders with the double-headed pitching machine of Lauren Cox and Lauren O’Leary.
South Hills has a special player in Brittney Rodriguez who is mature beyond her years and handles a very young pitching staff.
Arroyo and La Salle could meet up in their Division finals this season with each team bolstering a tough pitching staff. Glendora would also like to finish up the season at UCI as well.
Whittier Christian and San Dimas would like a rematch of last year’s thrilling Championship finale.
- La Canada (4-0) – Anna Edwards is the leader of a very young Spartans team that will go as far as it’s pitching will take them.
- Los Altos (2-0) – Conquerors have Courtney Gano and Alyssa Villalpando in the mix for a title run in 2010.
