Valle Vista League prediction
After a co-championship last year, I think this is the year San Dimas will emerge as the clear class of this league... and with the Saints' move to the Mid-Valley Division, maybe as the class of that too.
San Dimas' nonleague schedule isn't particularly revealing. The Saints rolled over inferior opponents with the possible exception of a good Bonita team than only lost by 17. But then, there are plenty of good teams capable of being blown out by San Dimas; it didn't schedule giants, but it handled inferior teams the way it should have.
Pomona (4-1) is emerging as a legitimate force in this league in Don Cayer's second season at the helm. I'd be surprised if the Red Devils miss the playoffs. Even Ganesha (2-3) is making significant progress, evidenced no stronger than by snapping its California state losing record at 49 the second game of the season.
Northview (3-2) and Baldwin Park (3-2), playoff teams last year, aren't in our coverage area, so I'm far from an expert on them. But their nonleague performances don't exactly scream greatness. Covina (1-4) however, is far better than their record indicates.
Here is how I think the league will play out
San Dimas 5-0
Pomona 3-2
Covina 3-2
Northview 2-3
Baldwin Park 1-4
Ganesha 1-4
