I've noticed that a few of this upcoming season's hoop schedules are starting to show up at Maxpreps and elsewhere, and I have been sked-mining like crazy!
Of course, my center of focus is the fabulous Campolindo Cougars... Looks like all 26 games are on Maxpreps now... Last couple trickled onto the site in the last few days.
The Cougs' coach (Steven Dyer, CIF Coach of the Year if ya need him!) has dialed up a strong slate for the boys...

Opener at Newark vs. Mitty, then the Russ Peterich tournament at Montgomery...
Then on to the loaded Gridley tournament followed by a non-league tilt v. Sacred Heart Prep (SF).
December closes with a bang, at the Modesto Christian tourney,
Jan. 4 sees the Cougs hosting St. Mary's of Stockton, which has been a thorn in the Cougs' side the last couple years... Maybe we'll get 'em this time!
Of course, the league schedule follows, and they have a TBA opponent at the always-terrific MLK Classic at St. Mary's College mixed in there.

Here's a GREAT game to circle on your calendar! Tues. Dec. 10, Weston Ranch at Riordan! Winner of that battle could very well be the favorite at Gridley which starts two days after that...
Plenty of other great games coming up, too... Sheldon's great show the Saturday before MLK comes to mind as well as practically the entire WCAL schedule for you West Bay fans...
I just hope I can get to 'em all this year... My 91-year-old mother (whom I am live-in caretaker for) has a lot of tough health conditions, and fell a few weeks ago and broke her ankle in two places... I have family nearby that helps cover for me and frees me up a whole lot, but there may be times I just can't get away.
