Congratulations to Clovis West girls

Very few schools ever win a California state championship in any division – let alone the highest (open division) level. But March 25 in Sacramento, Clovis West girls nudged perennial power Archbishop Mitty for the state open division title in basketball. Congratulations!

But I do have a complaint. Two-thirds of the high schools in the state are placed in the Southern California bracket. Fresno County should be considered Northern California. Indeed, I will just consider Clovis West as a NorCal team and count this as a win for the North.
