Recruiting II

According to Scout.com, two St. Mary's players are being recruited by Div. I, Div. II, and Div. III schools.

Wide Receiver Najee Lovett is being recruited by Cal Poly; Hawaii; North Dakota; Oregon; San Jose State; TCU; and UCLA.

Safety Henry Organ is being recruited by Cal Poly; Oregon State; Portland State; San Diego State; San Jose State; Southern Utah; UC Davis; and UCLA.

Several players from Div. IV have scouting reports on ESPN's recruiting website, including Fort Bragg running back Jake Cimolino.

If you know of anyone from our division who is being recruited by any four year school, let us know.

Recruiting

I'd like to keep track of any players that get the chance to perform at the next level. Does anyone know of any NCS Div. IV players who are being recruited by a four year school? If you do, let us know what programs.

Also, if any former NCS Division IV players are currently playing at the next level, please post that as well.

State Championship Games

Well, the state "Bowl Games" are set. This year, once again, there is no Division IV game. From the small school division (400 or less enrollment), it jumps to division III (1,250 or less). This combines Div. IV schools and most Div. III schools. They should find a way to make it more equitable. Right now, the way the state championship is set up, it favors teams from the south on many levels -- including the breakdown of enrollment size/division. Not to mention all the games are all played in the south.

Two teams from the NCS made it: De la Salle and Marin Catholic. Good luck to both.

Perhaps if they create a Div. IV field next year, we might be able to root for one of our teams in the future.

Playoffs

Congratulations to Fort Bragg, our new Div. IV NCS Section champion and to Justin Siena for a great year.

Congratulations to all the teams that made the playoffs. As a whole, this was the best post season yet. I hope they continue the expanded field because this year has shown that more than 8 teams are able to compete and win it all.

Game in Progress

Justin Siena 18, Fort Bragg 23 (4th Qtr -- 0:55 left)

Cimolino 5 yard run. 1st Down FB.

Championship Game

The championship game is Friday night at Santa Rosa High School at 7:00 pm. The game will be broadcast on KVYN, which will also stream the game live online here.

I just checked and the NCS must be mistaken. KVYN is still just playing music unless they moved the game back to 7:30.

Final

Fort Bragg 41, Salesian 28


Now our title game is set, Fort Bragg Vs. Justin Siena. Congratulations to both teams, and to all the teams for making this the best Div. IV playoffs ever!

Saturday's Game

The Fort Bragg - Salesian game will be broadcast over the internet here.

I have to work tomorrow, so if you're at the game or listening to it, please post scores as comments to this post.


Congrats to Justin Siena for making it to the finals to defend their title.

Final

Justin Siena 48, Valley Christian 23
