The first round of the CIF Southern Section playoffs was not particularly kind to the South Bay as only four of the 10 playoff teams survived the first round. Even fourth-seeded North Torrance was dismissed from the playoffs.

Kudos to John White for managing 128 yards against Oaks Christian. Give credit to El Segundo for a nice road win, and Serra and Mira Costa took care of business as seeded teams.

On Friday, here are the quarterfinal matchups:
Warren at Mira Costa, 7:30 p.m.
Verbum Dei at Serra, 7:30 p.m.
St. Joseph/Santa Maria at El Segundo, 7:30 p.m.
Culver City vs. Alemany, 7:30 p.m.

Here are the final scores from Friday:

Western Division

Palmdale 28, Redondo 14
Mira Costa 13, Eastside 12
Lynwood 15, Peninsula 14
Culver City 25, Downey 7

Northwest Division

Oaks Christian 64, South Torrance 14
Harvard-Westlake 45, Bishop Montgomery 7
Morro Bay 48, North Torrance 37
El Segundo 42, Santa Clara 0
Serra 47, Templeton 22

Northeast Division

Boron 72, Animo 7

Dave Thorpe was a self-proclaimed, slightly above average baseball player back in the day at Torrance's West High, who went on and had an unspectacular, injury-riddled stint as a third baseman at El Camino College. Trading bat for pen, Thorpe wrote sports for the Long Beach Union newspaper at Long Beach State University, then worked as the sports editor for the Palos Verdes Peninsula News for seven years before climbing down the Hill to the Daily Breeze, where he has been a sports writer covering local sports since 2007.
