ooooooooh yeahhhhhhh poly wins.........it was close but we won. a win is a win
Fox sports did a horrible coverage of the CIF finals .It was very obvious that they favored Tesoro the coverage was so South County another example of the epitamy of Orange County they'll never change !!!! Another example of the Fox TV network mentality.
From a member of the 1958 Poly CIF Champ's,
Great going guys! You've worked very hard for this and have every right to feel proud.
(Looking back, all of those wind sprints were worth it, right??)

So I get home late after the game to watch the replay and just as I thought....
The FSW commentating was so in favor of Tesoro. Every little thing Tesoro did, they acknowledged with enthusiasm. Everyone expected us to lose before the game even started.
Great game JackRabbits! Wake up Tesoro! Your dream season just became a nightmare!
LET'S GO POLY! WE'RE NOT DONE YET!
