It was a well-attended game with plenty of physicality. Granite Bay expected to win this game and came away disappointed.

HS Fixture List Growing

St. Thomas Aquinas, which had such a great run last season, is back on the field and that's a good thing.

They take on St. James in what is becoming a slightly stronger league around Kansas City. Oklahoma's Bixby comes to town, too.

Heating Up in NorCal

A quick nod to the growing group of single-school HS teams helps the Northern California season heat up, but there's more going on, too.

Coming off a bit of a jamboree of games at Jesuit Sacramento, several of the school teams are pitted against each other looking toward an early-season single-school cup before the rest of the season is capped off.

GRR HS Club Rankings Week 4

We have a new #1 and a new #2 and, yes, part of that has to do with the fact that those teams are playing.

Could we see the Southern California HS clubs claw back up to the top? Sure we could. They will sort themselves out as their school-team league ends and the club league begins.

Same goes for the North Carolina clubs.
