Buzzing right along to the end of the winter sports Year in Reviews with girls soccer today. Into spring Wednesday with baseball, just in time for the only professional sports off-day of the entire year, the day after the All-Star Game.

UPDATE, 8:32 p.m.: And that'll do it. A 3-1 final in favor of Golden Valley. Hope you've enjoyed the live blogging. I'll update scores throughout the night, so continue to check back. One update I just received: Garces' girls went to overtime with 11th-seeded Reedley in Division...

A big drumroll for you fans of the beautiful game ... here is the School House Zach debut of Central Section soccer rankings!
A quick disclaimer before we begin: Soccer coaches seem to be the worst of any at updating MaxPreps, so some of these records will be off, and some don't even have...

OK, OK, I thought about going with "Girls soccer, come on down" as the title today, but a joke is only funny for so long. Going to have to give that one up.
Today is the time for girls soccer, where the big three are (again) Bakersfield, Stockdale and Liberty. In what...

This is a taped blog entry, so to speak.
I wanted to make sure to get one Year in Review out each day, but I'm heading to Las Vegas for a couple of days to visit a friend. So what to do? Store a couple up and send 'em from the road!
So, live from the Rio Hotel, it's ....

I realize there hasn't been a new post here for some four or five days (I don't even remember anymore). It's certainly not my intention to ignore this blog, though, so let me provide an excuse-laden story that, in its humor and stupidity, might make up for the neglected days.
I went up to Fresno...

I guess I'm carrying some kind of jinx (or is it a blessing?) with me to the pitch this week. Last week, I saw East extend itself before beating Hanford minutes shy of double overtime in the Division II boys soccer playoffs.
Then, Tuesday night, West scored in the final minute of...

I'm thinking...
... that Stockdale vs. Bakersfield High in the girls soccer semifinals Wednesday night will be one of Kern County's games of the year. In any sport.
... that Stockdale's boys basketball team is wishing it had a chance at top-seeded Clovis West in the Central Section Div. I...

Lots to talk about, boys and girls. We're still getting some calls and finding out some scores, but here's some of the highlights so far:
— It's a two (or is it three) way tie: Garces pulled away from Golden Valley in the fourth quarter tonight, meaning the Rams (9-3) will share the...

The first day of the Central Section girls soccer playoffs was filled with blowouts today, with Stockdale (Div. I) and Frontier (Div. III) both winning by 8-0 scores over Madera and South, respectively. Bakersfield High also cruised past Fresno-Central 3-0 in a Division I game, and Tehachapi beat...

So, somehow the standings didn't reproduce like I wanted them to last night. Hopefully you all were still able to read them.
Just a quick note tonight to let you know what to look for this coming weekend, which brings winter sports into the postseason full-on with soccer and wrestling:

Happy Signing Day and Happy Ladies Day here at SHZ!
Seriously, though, it's been far too long since my last post. But then, I've been swamped with signing day festivities. Here's what we have so far as far as local football players headed to Division I schools:
Name, High School, Position,...

Happy Groundhog Day everybody. Here's what to watch for in the coming week:
Tuesday, Feb. 5 — Centennial at Stockdale girls basketball
The last chance for the Mustangs to lose before the Central Section playoffs. I wouldn't count on it, but Centennial can be tough if the game's close....

So here's my thought: I'm afraid this blog will get too much on a boys-sports track, especially come football season next fall. In the interest of fairness, I'd like to avoid that before it even becomes a problem. With that in mind, I'm designating Wednesdays as Ladies Day here at School House...
