Running dynasty: Saugus girls win third straight CIF State title
FRESNO - For the third straight year, they made the trek - an incredible feat within itself.
Well stated
FRESNO - The Saugus High School girls cross country team made a proclamation with its feet Saturday morning at Fresno's Woodward Park.
Totten, Grizzlies grab attention
FRESNO - It was the greatest individual and team performance in the five-year history of Golden Valley High School athletics.
Road goes through El Camino
One comment from All-National Division, Northern Conference defensive lineman Jonathon Hollins resonated louder than any other about El Camino College. "There are people who say we haven't played anyone," said the College of the Canyons football sophomore. "Now we're going to find out."
Difference makers
As College of the Canyons head football coach Garett Tujague argued for some of his players to make the All-Western State Conference teams at the post-regular season conference meeting, two players were notably up for discussion. Tujague's peers thought Jonathon Hollins and Dejuan Yates were the same guy.
Saugus' 'A'-game not enough versus Indians
Not even Saugus High's second-best score ever at Vista Valencia Golf Course could do it Tuesday. Not even career-best rounds by four Saugus girls at the course could do it.
Hart on par with SCV’s best
Recently, Saugus High girls golf head coach David Stradling went to bed thinking, "Yeah, maybe my team can compete for a Foothill League title."

Corr comes oh so close
Her words tell you exactly how she felt Monday. "Today was pretty much the worst day of my life," said Hart High golfer Amanda Corr.
The Long Road Home
There is no outward show of pain. No grimace or grievance. But pain must be somewhere. The last four years of Nate Longshore's life, his ankle, his heart, his ears and his head have all been injured. The way he answers one question might give some insight into how the Canyon High graduate and Cal Berkeley quarterback feels. Is he happy? Longshore, having just watched his team lose 17-3 to USC Nov. 8 at the ...
Trojans pick Buckeyes
With the nation's No. 5 team's quarterback grimacing and squinting on the grass with under three minutes to play in the second quarter Saturday night at the Rose Bowl at Pasadena, a stampede of one kicked up turf right behind him.
Left no doubt
It's as if they couldn't wait any longer. Thus, whoever was in charge of the sound system at Cougar Stadium Friday night cued Freddie Mercury three seconds too early.
Who’s the champ?
In Friday's edition of The Signal's sports page, a headline read "Viking frosh perfect." The headline was anything but perfect as Valencia's freshman football team had two ties in Foothill League play.
