Northview goes down and Bishop Amat flirted with a second loss, guess that means the gap in the Valley is much closer than I thought. Are you ready for this: Bonita and Glendora will meet in the championship on Saturday night, and with it comes the area’s top ranking. Lets face it, they have been the two most impressive teams in the tournament, with the Bearcats losing only 4-3 to Northview, and Glendora sailing through in each round with great defense and hitting. On another note, even Northview coach Darren Murphy is disappointed the Vikings won’t be playing Bishop Amat in the Glendora tournament. With Amat and Northview in consolation games, he was hoping tournament officials would pair them up on Saturday. It’s not a bad idea, imagine the turnout and sales with Northview-Bishop Amat followed by Bonita-Glendora.
