Inderkum beat Oakland Tech 85-59
- Thread starter Streak One
- Start date
Well we have to see how the SJS d1 playoffs go. MC is probably the slight favorite at this point and just beat Lincoln.
Yeah I guess winner of SJS D1 gets that spot.
Essentially my point is there are more teams then ever that you could justify putting in the open
And it’s extremely unlikely that they place both central section teams in the north open.
Open - Canidates.
MC, Folsom, Lincoln, Inderkum are all possible and good enough to compete with anyone.
BUT its the SJS and you still have Monterey Trail (win vs Folsom) lurking in the Playoffs not mention Vanden and Sheldon.
Sad but only 4 of these teams will get in the State playoffs. plus 1/2 at large depending on who they take for the OPEN.

I def see an SJS team in the Open. Looking like MC at this point if I was a betting man.
Folsom has a good shot at a deep D1 run.

It makes no sense. They are literally located in SoCal haha
How does 330 miles to sacramento vs 130 to say sierra canyon last year make sense . Or how does all the teams from north making 5 hr + to Santa Maria make sense

You guys remember when Clovis West represented the south in the D1 boys champ game? (before the open... this was the big boy game) How the hell did that ever make sense.
I think Open will be Riordan, two NCS Open finalists, two SJS D1 finalists and St Joseph.
Taking about evening out brackets in terms of competitiveness. Stick around for March and you will see a lot of matchups that don’t make geographic sense.
Someone put them in the Central Section which has gone to the North and the South for basketball. Take it up with them
When the SJS selects a team to Open then another team fills the D1-D7, so 6 teams could possibly make State Playoffs.
Winner/Runner if they go to NorCal Open which has happened, then you have two semi losers getting the invite.
C.I.F. votes on it when they make State Brackets next month. Historically San Diego, Los Angeles, Southern and Central section are Southern California and Sac-Joaquin, Northern, Central Coast, San Francisco, Oakland, and North Coast sections are Northern California. I actually think Central section wants to challenge the Southern Section and will vote to keep St. Joesph of Santa Maria in the Southern State Playoffs to faceoff versus HW or Roosevelt.
Open invitation is the best and if your invited it allures college coaches, promotes you as a dominating program that will bring you better players. So, win or lose in the games, to go Open is Winning!!
P.S. C.I.F. is HQ in Sacramento, let's hope they know their geography.

wrong . Both semifinal losers advance . If a team is selected to open then a qtr final losers advance gets the nod . Just like Monterey Trail last year
