SCIAC picture starting to clear up
There are six games left in the SCIAC baseball regular season and a couple of contenders have fallen by the wayside. A week ago five teams were still in the hunt. None of those have beem mathematically eliminated but both Pomona-Pitzer and Claremont-Mudd-Scripps suffered losses on Friday that will make it difficult for them now.
The defending champion Sagehens were dealt a 5-1 loss by the University of La Verne while CMS fell to Cal Lutheran 12-4. It is unlikely that either of those can leapfrog enough teams in front of them now.
Pomona-Pitzer and CMS play each other on Saturday, so the loser of that can definitely mail it in.
Redlands survived against a lower-tier team in Occidental 13-9. The Bulldogs trailed 8-0. So give them credit for having the guts to come back. But it shouldn’t have been that hard.
In other games today La Verne will battle Whittier and Redlands will travel to Cal Lutheran. Its a chance for the Bulldogs to put a dagger in the Kingsmen.
A VERY big game looms on Sunday when Redlands travels to La Verne. Stay tuned!

Thomas the latest SBVC soccer player to move on
Sophomore defender Monique Thomas, who helped the San Bernardino Valley College women’s soccer team to a 20-1-4 record and a state championship, has signed a letter of intent with Minot State University in Minot, N.D.
Thomas, a product of Cajon High School, was an honorable mention All-Foothill Conference selection in 2010, helping fortify a defense that recorded 12 shutout, including five straight to end conference play.
Thomas is the 10th player from the title-winning team to advance to a four-year school.
Minot State is coming off a 9-7-3 season and the school is in transition from NAIA to NCAA Division II.
