SAN DIEGO (AP) - San Diego State's basketball program has gotten to the point where it's a big deal if the Aztecs don't make the NCAA Tournament. The Aztecs failed to live up to their lofty expectations last year. That will provide plenty of motivation as third-year coach Brian Dutcher molds a new-look team that has plenty of experience thanks to three key transfers and could be better than his first team, which did make the NCAA field. "It's not acceptable," Dutcher said of... Full story

The first Frontier Conference cross-country cluster meet of the 2019 season took place Sept. 18, and Bonsall High School did not have the necessary five girls to obtain a team score. The second cluster meet was held Oct. 10 on the NTC Park at Liberty Station course, and the Bonsall girls took first place not only among Summit League teams but among all Frontier Conference teams. Team cross-country scores are derived by adding the positions of a school’s first five finishers; the sixth and seventh runners are not scored but c...
Daniel Contreras may not have been Fallbrook High's No. 1 runner when the Warriors' cross-country season began, but his ability to fill in as a leader of the team is why head coach Marco Arias nominated the junior for Athlete of the Week. "When I lost my No. 1 runner to injury, he stepped in and became the No. 1 runner for our team," Arias said. "This will make us stronger as we go on into league finals and CIF. "He has emerged as one to watch not only this year but also next...
The (sort of) Los Angeles Chargers are on the road again this week, which isn't such a bad thing for fans of the former San Diego franchise. Seems like the Chargers are always on the road. Even when they're home. That was evident this month when Pittsburgh Steelers fans filled most seats at the converted soccer stadium that is the team's temporary home. Things got so bad that the Steelers theme song was played, so bad that linebacker T.J. Watt thanked Pittsburgh fans... Full story

Fallbrook High School's girls tennis team concluded the regular season with a 6-9 overall record including a 4-4 mark in Valley League play which was worth third place in the five-team standings. "The majority of our top nine girls are freshmen or sophomores," said Fallbrook coach Bill Lenaway. "We don't have a lot of experience right now." The Warriors have 15 players on their roster, although Lenaway only considers 14 of those to be match ready. "I think next year we're going to finish a little better," Lenaway said. This...
Leadership can win you football games. But leadership in times of struggle and failure can be ultimately more important to a group of young athletes. Senior captain Jared McDonald, who starts on both sides of the ball for the Warriors as quarterback and safety, continues to lead by example as the Warriors struggle through a winless season in 2019. "Jared is a true competitor and gives his all each Friday for Fallbrook," varsity head coach Troy Everhart said. "Jared's...
Wrestling season is almost back, and Fallbrook High School’s varsity team is looking forward to it after what coach Cristian Vera called a “very promising” 2018-19 season. “We finished 5-4 in records and won our first four straight, and we came out with a big win against what you would call our league rival, Valley Center,” Vera said. And he said the team has several successful returning players. “We had seven CIF placers at the tournament we hosted last year, and all seven returned this year,” he said. “And we have a young...

A proposal which would have prohibited girls wrestling against boys in the CIF San Diego Section was tabled for future consideration and possible modification. The CIF San Diego Section’s board of managers voted unanimously Oct. 2 to table the proposal which would have applied to both tournaments and dual meets. “We are potentially limiting the opportunities for girls by adopting this rule,” CIF commissioner Jerry Schniepp. “We probably should hold off on this.” The growth of girls wrestling has increased both the number of f...
