Richard Sanchez steps down at Cardinal Newman

Right but relative to the area. Not like Serra who who pulls kids from all over the Bay Area.

Not that McManus won’t be successful but if you’re bringing a guy with a “National Championship” under his belt you bet your ass there are people within that community who are going to expect him to take it to Pitt and De La Salle very soon. Santa Rosa doesn’t have BART or CalTrain to my knowledge though.
I have not heard those as expectations from anyone within CN prior to the hire or since?

Now I have heard, “We need a coach who can beat MC” from people before Sanchez finally got over that hump this year. I think that is realistic goals and level they will be shooting for most years not Pitt and DLS.

Newman has always attracted kids. Put a big name in there and they will draw kids.

2025 Schedules

From what I was told Folsom agreed to play and then backed out, DeLa turned down, SRV declined, and no other NorCal team wanted to play the Pirates. Apparently Bosco is coming to Pirate Stadium in 2026
Rumor has it that Bosco's new coach is a closet HS marching band fanatic. He's supposedly heard about The......Marching Piratas and couldn't resist seeing/hearing them in their home port, Maties !

Valkyries' draft today

Sadly, they're not going to get much at No. 5, but by the end of the draft, the roster for the summer will be pretty much complete.and m the

So far, unfortunately, it does not look good. A lot of players stayed in school for NIL money and so the draft -- which is usually only three or four players deep -- is one (or two) players deep this time.

But next year, the Valkyries will have no bad contracts and the ability to sign the horde of established stars who will become free agents in anticipation of the new CBA.
I would have stayed in school too! the NIL money will be comparable to if not more than WNBA money and they can get a master's or continue to win and elevate their game.

Just a @TheR thought off season,…

Damn and all I see online is that san francisco is suffering. Clearly someone got money flowing
It’s not the most expensive private high by the way. And my buddy is now selling homes way above asking once again. We aren’t suffering. Talent wise, I can see many of these type of parents may not want to see their sons getting their heads bashed in on a football field, but from a hoop and baseball aspect this city is far from suffering.

university is a private school?
At the tune of $64,850 this past school year. They have major money. My buddy coaches baseball their and instead of playing non league baseball games for record purposes they took an amazing trip to The Dominican Republic. Played some games, did community service, and enjoyed the life. They are current record wise 13-1 and have beaten some solid teams. They us the baseball field for home games and practice that’s located in the presidio. Big money at that school.

I’m fine with Riordan. Curtain has built a great program. And I think they will continue to be great. Next season with Hillman, Armstrong, Porter and Pihtovs….with great opportunities for guys like Loevner and Carter as well.

As a Hall alumni/fan this really hurts me to say. But I think University is going to rival Riordan over the next couple of years.

They just are about done with a 50 million…not 5….50 million dollar brand new gym and if your spending that kind of dough on a gym, you best believe they are looking for the next Tounde Yessofou right now to add to that team.

This is a new day and age and Riordan and University are going to be spending like Duke and Alabama while the rest of the San Francisco teams are going to be nothing in comparison.

Might as well set up a series of games over the next three years with Riordan vs University at Chase Center

No other San Francisco basketball teams outside of these two currently matter…and it’s sad.

Ok. A Pitt -SRV rematch from the playoffs last year would have been fun to watch. Both teams played a tough, hard nosed game in NCS last year.Great game. Wonder why DLS turned it down, although both teams have seen plenty of each other over the years

WCAL at midway point

MaxPresps ratings clusters Serra, SF and VC pretty close together. Serra is defenitely the team to beat this year. But their only two losses come to their league mates SF & VC with whom they traded wins.

Even though Maxpreps has VC ranked over SF, the Lancers has two wins against VC giving SF the lead over VC on the diamond.
