We interrupt your scheduled football thinking time to bring you a reminder that this is the biggest week of the year in Central Section volleyball.
To wit:
Tomorrow night, Centennial, undefeated against Central Section competition and 29-3 overall, will travel to defending section champion...

We're beginning to hand out the first batch of Central Section titles of the fall, beginning tomorrow with the girls golf team championships in Tulare and then a couple of team tennis finals later in the afternoon. One of those is Division V, where Bakersfield Christian will host Fowler in what...

I was out in Taft (near Taft, really) today for the section's South Area girls golf tournament, so I thought it'd be a good time to check in on our non-football sports, two of which are already into postseason and two more that are rapidly approaching that point.
Girls golf

It's high time we took a break from football at School House Zach and took another look at the other fall sports going on. They're all well into league seasons, and I hate to pay so little attention to them. But they're up against football, and its vociferous demands on attention, so we'll just...

While you're occupied with high school football (or even if you're not), the local high school volleyball, girls golf, cross country and girls tennis teams have all gotten their teeth into their respective seasons. Not much going on today, so it's a good time to look at what we know so far....

I've got quite the exciting week planned here, not only waiting for the football season to start but also catching some early-season Kern County volleyball. Tonight, it'll be the first varsity event in Independence's gym — and the Falcons get to welcome volleyball power Bakersfield in. It's...

Some really bad news to report today that probably shouldn't come as a shock to anyone but will to a lot of people: Facing a tremendous budget deficit, the Kern High School District today announced its plans to do away with the junior varsity level in the six team sports that still have...

I'm not really sure I should be posting this, because maybe I'll get run out of town if I do, but I feel I have an obligation to admit my possible guilt.
There's a chance I've been jinxing Kern County high school teams (yes, I say this tongue-in-cheek, but it is...

It's shaping up to be quite an end of the month. Four Kern County volleyball teams are in Central Section volleyball championships Thursday, the football playoffs start Friday and the state volleyball and cross country championships will be decided in the coming weeks as well.

Somehow, we still have a month before Daylight Savings Time ends (wasn't that supposed to be a summer thing?), but the weather finally is turning a little bit and the fall is moving along quite rapidly.
Know what that means? Don't look now, but the postseason for fall sports begins in...

We'll be back to football on Tuesday with the newest Central Section rankings, but tonight I'd like to give a little love to the other fall sports, which, like football, are in full swing and rapidly approaching (or already zipping through) league play.
VOLLEYBALL — League play started...

Here's a promise: Because my last 50 or so blog entries have been football, football, FOOTBALL, I promise not to mention anything about that one sport that starts with Week 0 games Friday (those of you who want fo__ball, be sure to check back tomorrow for a podcast and predictions on...

A happy Independence Day to everyone out there. If you're doing work by reading this, I hope you're at least getting time-and-a-half enjoyment out of it. (Bad joke, yes, but I keep reminding myself that holiday pay makes working on the Fourth worth it).
In case you missed it yesterday, we're...
