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.

"We were playing well," Bos ...

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

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 ...
