CalHiSports.com editor and state high school sports historian Mark Tennis joins the program first to help preview this weekend’s state bowl matchups. Tennis and the hosts chat about CIF’s new three-site approach, the competitive equity debate, which NorCal teams should be considered favorites and more.
Coach Eidson’s segment follows and features its own special guest as De La Salle head coach and professional Eidson needler, Justin Alumbaugh, drops by. Alumbaugh talks about the Spartans’ big NorCal win and season-long resiliency while Eidson breaks down De La Salle bowl opponent, Mission Viejo, shares an in-depth player-produced scouting report, and ruminates on how he can keep his Los Panchos Burrito Magic alive in Southern California.
