Damien High School football coach Greg Gano confirmed rumors that have been circulating over the last week that the newly formed Sierra League, which will consist of South Hills, Charter Oak, Damien, Ayala, Chino Hills and Claremont, could be moving from the Central to the powerful Inland Division in the fall, the equivalent of Division II.
The Baseline League is also expected to move to the Inland Division, which would make it an even more powerful division with the Big 8, Citrus Belt and Southwestern league’s likely to remain. “That’s what I’m hearing,” Gano said. Stay tuned, CIF is expected to submit the new league re-alignment proposals to schools in a few weeks, then leagues will have a chance to appeal before the final decisions take place in April.
