Prep basketball: Canyon back to its ways
There Canyon girls basketball goes again. Driving another team crazy. The Santa Clarita Valley's premier girls basketball program over the last three seasons defeated Highland 78-43 on Thursday night at Canyon High.

Prep soccer: Vikings do just enough
The way Valencia girls soccer played most of the game, it could have been a runaway victory. As it turned out, the Vikings did just enough to hold off Alemany 2-1 on Wednesday at Valencia High School. Despite controlling the ball and creating several golden opportunities to score, particularly in the first half, Valencia (5-1-1) needed a late second-half goal by senior Lindsay Bos to pull in front for good. "We were playing well," Bos ...
Prep soccer: Cowboys are paper shredders
On paper, things didn't appear to be promising for Canyon girls soccer. Coming off a fifth-place showing in the Foothill League in 2012, the Cowboys began the year at 0-4 under new head coach Derek Rusk and currently had only one returning all-leaguer healthy. On paper, it appears things are misleading. Canyon defeated a solid Burroughs of Burbank team 4-0 on Wednesday at Canyon High School and looked every bit like a team that will ...

Santa Clara (3-3) opened the game on a 9-1 run as it shot 60 percent from the field in the first quarter. ...

Prep basketball: Kaluna vs. Backboard
It was a moment that should live in Santa Clarita Valley prep basketball history forever. On Thursday night at Santa Monica High School, West Ranch guard Kevin Harris drove along the right side of the basket and tried for a layup and was fouled with 3:10 to play in the first quarter against Alemany of Mission Hills. Giant teammate Ako Kaluna came in to clean up the rebound as a referee's whistle sounded and the ...
