Girls basketball playoff pairings

Cajon and Colony come in as two-time defending CIF champions, but at least one of them won’t make it a three-peat, as both the No. 5 Cowgirls and No. 7 Titans are in Division 1-AA this year. Highest seeds in the county are Barstow in 3-A and Lake Arrowhead Christian in 6-A at No. 2.

Yucaipa plans to open football job next week

The Yucaipa football job, vacated with the removal of John Hallenbeck, will be advertised next week according to athletic director Mark Anderson. The job will be open to all applicants, with applicants within the Yucaipa-Calimesa Joint School District receiving first consideration.

“We’ll be opening it up pretty soon and see what kind of interest is out there,” Anderson said.

The athletic director also shed a bit of light on the timetable in the removal of Hallenbeck, who was an assistant at Yucaipa before taking on the head coaching job two years ago and who remains a teacher at Yucaipa High. The decision to part ways was made late last week after a postseason review process.

“The athletic department ran its end-of-the-season review and the decision was made not to renew (Hallenbeck) as football coach,” Anderson said. “John is a good person and it was a tough decision to make, but we decided that we needed to part ways.”

San Bernardino girls soccer makes playoffs for first time

Just got a call in from the San Bernardino-San Gorgonio girls soccer game, which saw the Cardinals tie the Spartans 1-1 and clinch the first-ever girls soccer playoff berth for SBHS. The Cardinals (5-12-4 overall, 4-3-3 San Andreas League) needed to tie or win to qualify and got a goal from Patricia Aguirre with five minutes left to do so.

Hallenbeck out at Yucaipa

Yucaipa football coach John Hallenbeck is out at coach of Yucaipa after two seasons, according to Hallenbeck. The coach did not go into details when I got a hold of him a couple of minutes ago, as he confirmed his departure and denied comment after that.

“There’s too much going on right now and I can’t say anything at this moment,” Hallenbeck said. “Maybe it’s something I’ll be willing to discuss later, but not now.”

Hallenbeck was 11-10 in two seasons with the Thunderbirds after taking over for Scott Pearne, advancing to the playoffs in 2008 and going 5-5 this past season. Yucaipa had a chance to make a fourth straight playoff appearance this fall, but fell to Carter 28-7 in the season finale.

SB County has 3 of top 4 seets in D6 Dual meet wrestling

Although the brackets don’t come out until Thursday, I believe, the seeding has been done for the Division 6 dual meet wrestling, taking place at Baldwin Park Sierra Vista High School on Saturday.

Although defending champion Morro Bay is seeded No. 1, the next three teams are all from San Bernardino County: Oak Hills, Bloomington and Kaiser in that order. That means there’s a decent chance a county team will make it to the finals. Only the 9 league champions are guaranteed spots in the 16-team bracket in D6, so with Kaiser seeded fourth, the Cats will take one of those 7 at-large spots, and another will go to Santa Ynez, runner-up in the Los Padres League behind Sierra Vista and seeded fifth for Saturday.
