Wolves have hit the offensive glass and playing with good energy

Where the hell did SRV come from?

And...from what I'm hearing SRV has a generational 8th grader coming in next season? Like arguably the best 8th grader in a generation? Is that true? And SRV graduates nobody??? What?

Based on CalHiSports rankings and CIF seedings, this is another upset win for McClatchy. They also had more motivation to win because they keep getting disrespected by the CIF in seedings, playing on the road.
This season in NorCal - no home games--Section final winner playing at a section final loser
Last season in NorCal - no home games--seeded #16
Two seasons ago in NorCal - no home games (penalized for the Mom/baby accident against Lincoln-Stockton in SJS sections)
Nobody expects them to beat Mitty, so there's nothing to lose. Play loose, play hard, no pressure--dangerous!
Ok...im all in with SRV! I'm backing the NCS champion all the way to the state OPEN championship!
Hope I'm not jinxing them! 🤞

Calling the mom going in the court an accident is a bit of a stretch but I agree with the rest.
And my hot take is they beat Mitty. My big concern for them is how their lack of depth holds up against Mitty’s pressure. If it does, I think they match up pretty well with them.
SRV has put on two clinics in a row, demolishing Acalanes and Pinewood. (It makes us feel better at Carondelet -- a little. We played them tough three times.)
But really, winning NorCal games is hard, so there's no disgrace, at any level. People are talking about the Folsom loss, but every team in NorCals is a good team. Acalanes, for example, has had the same group for four years, and has done very, very well. And yet, if I have it right, that group of talented players never won a NorCal game.
There are no easy wins, and usually the games are wars. For SRV to do what they're doing is, simply, dazzling. And remember that Clovis West and Pinewood battled on even terms until late in the fourth quarter when they played at Alameda.

Streak--your past prediction of McClatchy beating Folsom was spot on. I think McClatchy will have a closer and better game against Mitty than the previous time they played each other back in December, when Mitty cruised to a 19-point win. That was when Mitty was #2 in the country with no injured players out for the season. Private school vs pure public school. Goliath vs Cinderella. McClatchy--road warriors the last three NorCal playoff seasons, so not a big disadvantage. No pressure on them. McClatchy brought in a lot of fans to the Golden 1 Center against Folsom and to Acalanes last night. Makes for an entertaining matchup.
