San Dimas lost tonight in 3 @ Winward. They played a heck of a game but we were simply out coached. We were watching the same mistakes since last season. We need a coach that will teach/correct mistakes rather than sit and watch a team of hard working girls struggle. A young team that is willing to work and is hungry to be coached. We are a team stacked with untapped talent. Unbelievable! Ghigh ever think of coaching at SDHS? We need you!

St. Lucy's and Chino Hills have home games and a possible chance to go to the semi-finals where both would meet the #1 and #2 CIF seeded teams La Canada and La Reina.

I believe both teams have what it takes to push through. Good luck St. Lucy's and Chino Hills.

Side note: St. Lucy's is having a taste of deja vue right now as they played (and lost) to South Torrance @ home last year in the quarter finals. Expect SL to come out swinging.

Minor Corrections (per CIFSS.org):
Diamond Bar match is at 4:00PM
Azusa is playing AT Fairmont Prep

Good Luck to all local teams! Play hard, leave it all on the court and return victorious.
