We’re getting this going a day early this week to help you get out in front of all the great high school playoff action going on—there’s some driving entailed, however, so be prepared.
Tuesday
Girls’ Water Polo: Wild Card Games, 3:15pm
Got some great games in the city here as Poly hosts Northwood and Millikan hosts San Marcos. If they win they’ll advance to round one on Wednesday.
Girls Soccer: Wild Card Game, 3:15pm
So, CIF made a mistake, re-posted the bracket, and now Wilson has to play it’s way into the official field of 32 at home against Chaparral.
Wednesday
Girls’ Water Polo: Round One, 3:15pm
If Poly and Millikan win on Tuesday, the Rabbits will be at Corona Del Mar, and the Rams will be at Los Alamitos. Either way, Wilson hosts the winner of Irvine/Fountain Valley.
Boys’ Soccer: Wild Card, 3pm
We do have a team in the Wild Card, as Cabrillo hosts Moorpark.
Long Beach State Men’s Basketball @ Fullerton, 7:05pm
It will be worth it for you to make the trip to this game. We promise.
Boys’ Basketball: Round One, 7:30pm
We’ve mentioned it in two articles already, but doesn’t it seem nuts that six of seven teams from the Moore League made it into the playoffs? Jordan hosts Bell Gardens and Poly hosts Montebello, then Wilson visits Oxnard, Lakewood goes to Etiwanda, Millikan heads down Spring to Los Al, and Compton’s at Simi Valley.
Thursday
Girls’ Soccer: Round One, 3pm
Four teams in action as Lakewood visits El Toro, Wilson plays at Los Osos, Cabrillo drives to Temecula Valley, and Poly hosts Santa Margarita.
Girls’ Basketball: Round One, 7:30pm
Five Moore League teams to follow in the first round, with Poly hosting Paramount, Jordan visiting Troy, Millikan trekking to Quartz Hill, Cabrillo visiting San Clemente, and Wilson at Schurr.
Friday
Boys’ Soccer: Round One, 3pm
If Cabrillo wins on Wednesday they’ll be at El Toro, and Wilson hosts Aliso Niguel, Jordan visits JSerra, and Millikan hosts the winner of Wednesday’s Capo Valley/Fountain Valley game.
Girls’ Water Polo: Round Two 3pm
Whether there’s anything to see today will depend on how the three teams from the Moore League do on Wednesday, we’ll keep you posted!
Boys’ Basketball: Round Two 7:30pm
Same deal as above—there could be six Moore League teams still playing in round two, or zero. Come back later this week to find out!
Saturday
Long Beach State Men’s BBall vs. UW Green Bay, 2:30pm (ESPNU)
It doesn’t matter in terms of their record in the conference, but the 49ers will want a strong showing on Saturday on national TV as part of ESPN’s Bracket Busters. Go pack the ‘Myd!
Dirtbags vs. USC @ Blair, 5pm
After you watch some basketball, head right to Blair to enjoy the Dirtbags’ home opener on the year, as they try to take it to USC on Saturday evening. Opening day under the lights? You’d better be there…
Girls’ Basketball: Round Two, 7:30pm
