Ron I remember you saying 14 was a joke and should be taken away, not you’re saying 14 is fine bcuz your school is in it. How bout you just stay quiet until your school loses. Because we all know Alhambra isn’t it. Thanks
@ The Wrap Up: We’ll just keep playing until our next loss, or until that improbable championship victory. Our players will be the authors of their own story. They’ve come a long way in one year, and they are to be commended for their efforts.
@ Football Dad, FBFan, Truth & How Quickly We Forget: I agree with your sentiment. Regardless of the flaws in the current system—and there are several—all of this should be primarily about our student-athletes, their schools, and their communities.
Quit being so negative ,Wrap. Even in the lower divisions, let the kids suit up one more time with their friends and play in a game for probably the last time
With the USC win to buoy my spirits, I will offer my congratulations to the Alhambra program for being, as Vrooman puts it, “most improved.” No need to play any more games, because with my praise, you’ve achieved the highest honor possible.
Word on the street is that Schurr high school Spartans will be changing their name to the Schurr High Chickens. Because all they do during playoff time is laying an egg…
It’s simple the division are not created by the kids that play and not all kids can afford or attend other schools out side there district so they play at the school they must attend whether a D1 prospect or a 4 year bench warmer dont mock the kids that play a game they love at the end of the day its high school football and a small percentage play at the next level, thanks for complimenting on my comment of the year
@ The Wrap Up: Ah, at least give Alhambra a little credit for being 6-5 now after two consecutive 1-9 seasons. Since CIF just happened to give us a Division 14 playoff berth, our idea is to make the best possible use of it. Anything less would be a waste.
Perhaps this D14 bid for the Moors can be alternately considered a Most Improved Team award. A five-win improvement from one year to the next shouldn’t be scoffed at too much. We’ll see about making that six games next week.
I agree monrovia coach must go…..stop hiring these city section coaches
The double digit teams are aware of their place in the postseason, and everyone who follows H.S. football can see it too. Question: how many divisions do we have to have before we start calling the quality of football bad? Do you respect the game of football, or this an issue of giving everyone, regardless of merit, a trophy?
Football Dad with the comment of the year. Whether your a D-1 can’t miss prospect or a 4 year bench warmer. You deserve the credit and praise from the outsiders for doing something bigger than yourself and for making sacrifices that others are unwilling to do. Football is the greatest sport in the world because so many people can contribute and learn life lessons….
All the other BS that gets posted means nothing compared to that!
May not be important in your eyes,but is too the kids that play in it.
Schurr Spartans motto was WAR this year. But just like the Spartans are known for only good for one battle.
Any kid that straps on a helmet and dedicated themselves to the game no matter the division, I get D14 can’t compete with the higher division but mocking the division is nit fair to the kids that play and dedicated their time.
Monrovia head football coach must go. He can’t make adjustments yes you lost your quarter back. Question why did you loose him to injury. Answer because your running him late in the fourth quarter with the game already decided should have been out with the second string quarterback getting some reps . Roosevelt please rehire him Monrovia isn’t the place for him. The kids deserve better. Also take your coaches you brought with you.
Wow one and done again maybe Schurr Spartains should recruit better kids to win a playoff game not just League
We were shocked that 1-9 San Juan Hills was able to eliminate 9-1 Downey in D2, but of course San Juan had the ridiculous advantage of playing this game at home. In that same division, Vista Murrietta, always tough, put Damien into the offseason, 36-31.
Skipping to D4, the barn-burner was Muir at Charter Oak, which again came down to the last seconds with Charter Oak prevailing as they did earlier in the year, this time in was 17-14 in favor of the Chargers.
D5 saw a resurgent St Paul knockout Inland Empire power Etiwanda, 38-13, while La Serna was able to deny Lakewood any points at all despite the visitors making 4 trips into the Whittier team’s red zone. Andy George’s team pulled this defensive struggle out of the fire 7-0. Also in D5, RHP just keeps rolling, this time dispensing with Thousand Oaks, 50-34. And Bonita showed it is still a force to be reckoned with, beating Northview 31-19.
Sad news to report in D6: Upland put the first loss onto the otherwise perfect season of Los Altos, beating the Conquerors 42-21.
Good news to report in D7 as Saugus rolled Schurr 22-19, giving fuel to the conversation about the Spartans never doing anything in the postseason.
A relative surprise occurred in D9 last evening when Warren showed signs of life taking down a good Norwalk team 17-7. San Dimas likewise became animated enough to beat a quality Rowland squad, 24-22.
WARNING: WE ARE ENTERING THE DOUBLE DIGITS, WHERE QUALITY OF PLAY IS SKETCHY AT BEST, ATROCIOUS AT IT’S WORST.
Pacifica of Garbage Grove had little trouble putting ER out of its misery, cruising to a 35-14 win in the Southeast Asian part of town. Monrovia also took it on the chin from Hillcrest, 41-14.
We skip to D13, because these double digits don’t deserve to be covered exhaustively. In this lucky #13 Pete Gonzalez and crew were able to grind one out over a weak Rancho Alamitos team 19-17. That will give the Schurr bashers a tiny bit of ammunition in their yearly put-downs of all things Oilers.
Last, and certainly least, Alhambra bested Bassett 25-0 in a D14 meeting, while everyone’s favorite rising team, Pioneer, advanced with a win over Godinez, 42-21.
And that’s the wrap. It must be noted that the double digit divisions are in no way, shape or form up to the standards of what most people would consider playoff caliber football. I included them in my wrap-up only because I was in a good mood over the USC win.
Still life at Montebello! Great job Oilers! They coach up what they have every year!
Schurr out in the 1st round again?
Word on the street is that DELETED ate off one of the bus tires after losing again in round 1. Same stuff different year. It goes to show you about being humble. All that hype, all the screaming and yelling, all that pounding of the chest resulting in a sad long bus drive home. Better luck next year…
