With the expanded Nor Cal Tournament..this is it. The winner of this round is guaranteed a shot in the Nor Cal playoffs. There are two Girls-Boys Doubleheaders and after a sweep in the first round, all the SCL Girls teams play higher seeds.
Division II Boys
Notes...No. 1 Montgomery, No. 2 Redwood and No. 3 Ukiah all had first round byes. No. 11 Alameda is the only lower seed that won in the first round.
No. 8 San Loronzo (15-12) at No. 1 Montgomery (21-8) 8 pm...This will be the first game in a week for Montgomery. The last time we saw them they were celebrating that improbable win over Cardinal Newman. Montgomery has won eight straight since an Overtime loss to Ukiah. Montgomery is the only team from the North Bay to win the Division II Title since the Section went to Five Divisions in 1988. Still some work to do to accomplish that but still pretty amazing. San Lorenzo came in fifth place in the Hayward League and has a modest three game winning streak. While Montgomery had the first round bye, San Lorenzo had a big fourth quarter in a 52-38 win ...

Division I Girls
No. 13 Santa Rosa (18-9) at No. 4 Liberty (18-8)...7:30 pm...Santa Rosa could get used to this. After going 27 years without a NCS Playoff appearance here they are again.

Liberty has won twelve of fifteen, two of the losses to Deer Valley.

High School Basketball Fans are you ready for another Cardinal Newman-Montgomery game? Both teams won their First Round North Bay League Post Season tournament game, so it the stage is set Friday Night at SRJC.
Cardinal Newman advanced with a 60-30 win over Piner for their second straight win after their mini-slump last week. They are now 21-6 on the season, which is exactly what Montgomery is. The Vikings beat Ukiah 62-56, their first win in three games against the Wildcats this season. This will be the fourth game between Cardinal Newman and Montgomery this year, with Montgomery winning two of the first three.
At Montgomery tonight, it was a lot like last night which featured the Girls first round--good game, a little bigger crowd, same atmosphere and a Montgomery win. The big man of the Montgomery win was again the big man. Ben Freeland, who has been dominating the last week and a half in some big games, scored 20 points and pulled down 12 rebound to lead the Vikings.
The game got off to a tight start with three ties, two lead changes and a 16-13 Montgomery lead after one quarter. Freeland was ...
