It's official: Serra's recent domination of Bellarmine is the most sustained and one-sided in the Padres' history, dating back 73 years when the West Bay Catholic rivalry began in 1946 during the Truman Administration. The last four scores, all in Serra's favor have been: 48-13, 48-0, 43-0, 37-0 (tonight). It has not been pretty (well, certainly not for the Bells). The rivalry has become an exercise in a regular running clock to keep the final scores from becoming humiliating. For Serra fans, it's been a tonic (a far cry from the years of being pounded by the San Jose Jesuits); for Bellarmine followers, it's been a depressing dose of grim WCAL reality.
