He has been doing various pods the last few years. He does a great job covering local football.

It’s been an excellent season with so many tight games. Even nonleague games are fun to the finish.
We will see this continue on through the @cifsjs playoffs.

[Joe Davidson @SacMedia_JoeD]

Central East is is a defending @CIFState champion from the Central Section with wins this season over Grant and Oak Ridge

@SacMaxPreps Should be noted that Del Oro finishes the regular season @ Whitney & at home in Loomis v Rocklin. Those teams could meet twice in a couple of weeks. Rocklin also has Jesuit while Whitney plays Oak Ridge….in final two weeks. SFL is a gauntlet.

[Erik Alves @ealves_5]

@SacMaxPreps No matter how the 2/7 3/6 & 4/5 matchups in D2 end up, it will be unbelievable. Each will be on the level of a Section Semi or Final. Del Oro will be tough to beat in D2 w/only close losses to possible D1 finalists Oak Ridge & Folsom, but this bracket is so loaded! Manteca a 7!

[Joe Davidson @SacMedia_JoeD]

@SuchADean2X @CameraGuyDave1 @delorofootball @FolsomBulldogFB @Chase_Carmazzi @luke_taber2028 @CBSSacramento Team captains and coaches are warned before games that touchdown celebrations and/or taunting is not allowed. He made an incredible catch, was fired up and emotional. In CIF playoffs, players have been ejected for this. Too bad there won't be a rematch

[Erik Alves @ealves_5]

@NFHSNetwork @MarkRCondit @jgrahams A Linden v River Islands rematch is the projected 3/6 first round matchup by @SacMaxPreps in D7.

[Erik Alves @ealves_5]

What we know in the MLL. Linden & River Islands was an awesome game last night! We can only hope there will be a p-off rematch. Linden hosts Calaveras next Fri. for the MLL title. They played for a Section Title last yr. Red Hawks won that & State Bowl. @NotYoDaddysMLL @GuyDossi

[Erik Alves @ealves_5]

It was great to see the Linden v RI game on @NFHSNetwork. @MarkRCondit @jgrahams

[Not Yo Daddy’s MLL @NotYoDaddysMLL]

Division 5 is a crazy anomaly. Top 4 teams have the smallest enrollments. Hilmar, Escalon, Sutter, and Sonora. Not the case in most other divisions. St. Mary’s and Central Catholic in D2 are the exception.

[Erik Alves @ealves_5]

@SacMaxPreps Would @LHSSpartansFB be in okay shape even if they aren’t the “league champion” due to the tie breaker? You have them projected as the #8 in D5. Central Valley & Johansen are D3 and clearly would have to win the tiebreaker as league champion to get in.

[Erik Alves @ealves_5]

@SacMaxPreps Appreciate it.

[Erik Alves @ealves_5]

@SacMaxPreps In D7 Summerville would have to get to 4 wins. Currently at 2. They end the season with Linden. Only 9 scheduled games hurt them.

[Erik Alves @ealves_5]

Merced is projected to end up as the 5 seed according to @SacMaxPreps.

[Erik Alves @ealves_5]

Merced jumped to #6 in the @SacMaxPreps D3 rankings. Oakdale is at #3. Potentially could be a cool Southern half of @cifsjs first round matchup. @MuhsdSports @RobScheidt @CoachGaMartin @ddcruz_oakdale

[Turlock Journal @turlockjournal]

Finishing the regular season 19-3 overall, Hilmar will enter the Sac-Joaquin Section flag football playoffs as the top seed in Division IV. The Yellowjackets will begin their defense of its blue banner Wednesday at home against West Campus (Sacramento).
