2013 De La Salle Varsity Showcase


De La Salle High School will be hosting the top wrestling teams in California on Saturday January 12. This event is shaping up to be a one of a kind dual meet event not seen often in California. Representing the Central Section will be the 2-time returning State Champions and 5-time consecutive Central Section Champions, Clovis. They will be putting their #1 ranking on the line against #2 ranked and back-to-back Sac Joaquin Section Champions, Vacaville. These two teams have a long tradition of preparing their kids for dual meets. Clovis has only lost 2 duals in the last 5 years (65-2), and those losses came at The Clash to St. Edwards of Ohio and Apple Valley of Minnesota. Adam Wight and Clint Birch have compiled a 201-47 record for Vacaville in their 8 years at the helm, adding to the school's all-time record of 1005-127. The 10-time consecutive Central Coast Section Champions, Gilroy, will be bringing another group of strong wrestlers to the event. They will be led by two returning state finalists, and hope to improve on their 5th place finish at state last year. Hosts De La Salle High School has shown that they can represent the North Coast Section by winning 6 consecutive NCS Dual titles and 4 consecutive NCS Individual Tournament Championships, as well as finishing in the top 4 in the state the past 2 years. The Spartans have only lost to two teams in duals in the last 5 years. Those losses came to Vacaville and Bakersfield.

This is going to be a great evening of wrestling with the 2012 Central Section Champions, 2012 Sac Joaquin Section Champions, 2012 Central Coast Section Champions and the 2012 North Coast Section Champions all wrestling under one roof, in this fan-friendly dual meet event. This event is guaranteed to have some great match ups with some of the top wrestlers in the state going head to head. We will be running 2 mats, the first two duals will start at 4:00pm and the second duals will start between 5:30-6:00pm. Tickets are $10 for adults, and $5 for Children and Seniors.

Sacred Heart Cathedral beat Bellarmine at their place 1-0 to run their record to 5-0 on the year and an 8-game winning streak dating back to last season.

Riordan beat El Camino 2-0 to break their 122-game soccer winless streak which included a 73-game losing streak. Must have felt like winning the Super Bowl.

Once again, the Castro Valley athletic program lays an egg. The volleyball coaches failed to turn in paperwork to allow their varsity to participate in the NCS playoffs. CV easily qualified to take part but, now, will sit it out. Nice job. Players and parents, who contributed time, money and effort this year, are thanked by being kept out of the post-season. Just one more foulup by a dysfunctional athletic program. Does anyone at CV even care anymore?

Congrats to all WCAL teams:

3. St. Francis 111.5
5. Serra 95.0
7. Bellarmine 92.0
8. Mitty 81.5
9. Riordan 80.0
35. Sacred Heart 26.5
