UPDATED, 12:32 a.m.: A thriller in Tehachapi tonight, and a few other good games around Kern County made it a good Week 8. Let's recap:
Tehachapi 16, Taft 7: It was a defensive battle until the final four minutes, when the Warriors hit two long pass plays, the second one an 18-yard touchdown...

UPDATED, 12:12 a.m.: Scores are piling up all over the section, so check the list below for updates. One note I want to make is that the Delano final was Porterville 23, Delano 14, not 33-14 as I said originally.
Let's take a look at the big results:
Stockdale 17, Liberty 3: This...

UPDATED, 12:12 a.m.: it was another night of the blowout in Kern County — and I think that might remain the case throughout a lot of the league season, with maybe a close game or two in town and the rest convincing victories. We've got a serious case of the haves and the have-nots....

UPDATED, 12:36 a.m.: Week 4 turned into a huge statement night for several teams around town. Let's get straight to the nitty-gritty.
Liberty 27, Bakersfield 20: Don't forget about the Patriots just yet, folks. Their offense was all but written off after three poor weeks, but what we forgot...

UPDATED, 1:27 a.m.: It's late, so I'll save most of my thoughts for the Most Important Things post coming Sunday, but here are a few results I'm ruminating on after Week 3:
Clovis-Buchanan 56, Bakersfield 41: Obviously, you can't give up 509 passing yards — and 751 total yards —...

UPDATED, 12:30 a.m.: As advertised, it was a great night of high school football. Bakersfield's heart-thumping comeback against Stockdale probably tops the list, but there's plenty of action to recap. The complete scorelist is below (and it will continue to be updated as I get scores), but let's...

UPDATE, 11:39 p.m.: Back in teh hotel room here in Fresno, now gearing up for Fresno State's home game against UC Davis tomorrow night, the return of a healthy Ryan Mathews and possibly Derek Carr's collegiate debut. But in the meantime, let's rehash what we saw on the first high school football...

UPDATED, 10:30 p.m.: Sorry for the update drought, but there was really not much to say. More Tyler Bray, more London Lacy (that's Bray's backup), continuing to torch the Taft secondary. Kingsburg wins it 39-0 and will go on to the semifinals to play either Arvin at home or Visalia-Central...

UPDATED, 12:08 a.m.: Here's a quick-reflex reaction of some of tonight's key results:
Bakersfield Christian 40, Tehachapi 35: BCHS coach Doug Barnett said after the game that Derek Carr doesn't yet have a full grasp of the spread offense. That's a scary, scary thought, considering Carr was...

UPDATED, 12:24 a.m.: A full score list (of what we have) is below, but here are some that caught my eye:
Liberty 17, Stockdale 10 — Turns out I do know jack. Or maybe I'm just lucky. But whatever the case might be, Liberty found a way to win a close game and Stockdale finally...
