I'll be at the CLET @ CN game tonight and will keep the thread updated.
Can someone do the same at the BOD @ SRV game also?
Thanks

NCS OPEN results 2/21
- Thread starter northbaybbguru
- Start date
There are multiple section final games at Dublin on Saturday but not the boys/girls Open so that's a legit question. 🤷
I think if SRV Boys had beaten Salesian tonight, the Boys Open championship would have been at Dublin. But they try to keep the top seeded teams closer to home. Likewise, if SRV Girls had lost to BOD tonight, the Girls Open finals would have been up in the north bay closer to CN.
Congrats @northbaybbguru. I caught Dave Cox last night for some of the game. Tissa just so strong.
Has newman ever won NCS Open? I think they lost to Salesian last time they were in that position but I could be wrong. Enjoy the ride.
CN has never won the NCS Open. They lost to St Joe's in the championship game when Anya Choice was a senior to the Lepolo (pre-Clet transfer) led S. Joe's team...
CN is the only girls team to play in every NCS Open so they are due! Lol
I would think so....
Max Preps has 5 Norcal teams in the top 9 in the state.
Mitty. 1
SMS. 4
Folsom. 6
SRV. 8
CN. 9
The winner of the CN v SRV game should make a big jump past Folsom I would think.
At this point its looking like 4 or 5 for the Open. I'm not sure I see 5 Open teams in the South.
SC 2
Etiwanda 3
CW 5
Mater Dei 7
Sage Hill? 10
Ontario Christian? 13
We may be looking at a 4 team Open...
So assuming they even out the brackets...
I think everyone can see where I'm going here...
Which section runner-up between the SJS and NCS goes D1 and immediately becomes the 1seed/ favorite to represent the North in D1?
IMO the big question is 4 or 5 in the State Open? I just can't see 6....
I agree northbaybbguru. Can't see 6. As you know, the past few years CIF has put Clovis West in the North and created an odd 5 team "bracket" last year. If they do that again, Mitty at 1 and the loser of CN / SRV at 5 seem obvious. The juggling of seeds 2, 3 and 4 will be interesting.
Cn has a win over Folsom...so if CN was to lose to SRV I think CN would get the 4 and Folsom the 5 (in that case)
Do we double T every time down court or triangle and two on her… is she that good
I have never seen her
I have never seen her
You never know ...
What about LJCD? Yes, they're 19th by MaxPreps but if they win San Diego?
But the logic they've used in the past has been "Who can win? Who belongs?"
By that logic, it's Mitty, Etiwanda and Sierra Canyon, but you need at least four in both Opens (assuming they balance them -- which they shouldn't. SoCal should have one more because they have more schools.)
If they go four:
South: Etiwanda, Sierra Canyon, Mater Dei, Sage Hill.
North: Mitty, SMS, Winner of Newman-SRV, Clovis West
Five:
South: Above plus Clovis West
North: Mitty, SMS, Folsom, SRV, Newman
Six (now it gets fun):
South: Top four plus LJCD, Ontario Christian (get that freshman in the bracket)
North: Above plus Clovis West and, well, who? Oakland Tech maybe (section winner)? SI? Winner of Carondelet-O'Dowd?
Five makes the most sense to me.

Can't do that because Newman has shooters. And Queiroz is a willing and good passer. She's the difference among all the NCS teams. Love to see Jordan Lee guard her, or Cheli/Woliczko. Otherwise, there's no good answer.
Agree. Kate Schat I believe has a 10' 3 game earlier in the year. Tissa makes them so tough. She's like JKidd from back in the day. Big , strong, can handle, rebound... etc.
I certainly hope the CIF doesn't go 6. A total hose job to whomever is the 6 in North.
4 or 5 is the correct choice
Let me be the voice of dissent. I see six teams that have been a cut above the rest: Mitty, St. Mary's, CN, Clovis West, SRV and Folsom. If you want to go with 5 and send CW south, fine with me.
D1 in rough order - Carondelet, Pinewood, SHC, Odowd, Acalanes, McClatchy, SI, Buchanan, OakRidge, California, Piedmont, Whitney, OTech (no way are they an open team). Last few are a complete crapshoot. Choose from: Los Gatos, Colfax (who beat Los Gatos), Evergreen (who beat Branham twice), Branham (who lost to Los Gatos).

I like 5 teams from the North that you laid out. Those five have pretty consistently been Top 5 this season. After that, it has shuffled around
Unless CIF wants a replay of the Southern Section Open in the SoCal Open, either Clovis West or La Jolla Country Day/Mission Hills winner has to be in a five-team SoCal Open. And Clovis West is ranked fifth while Mission Hills is 14th and LJCD 18th.
If CW goes South in a five-team bracket, then it's Mitty, SRV, Cardinal Newman, SMS and Folsom in the North.
That makes the most sense to me.
