Thanks for explaining. You mean non-league games and not pre-season, correct? Non-league games are games played prior to league/conference games.

example: HS tournament games are non-league/conference games and played during the HS soccer season.

I'm not sure I fully understand what you are getting at. The context of our conversation came about when discussing the games the coach sets up and the team plays prior to league. It is not tournaments as those you can't select your opponent :) I think my dd team played about 4 or 5 of them and those were strategically selected with those #'s in mind. They called them pre season but in truth pre season and non league sounds the same lol.

Pre-season games by definition are games played before HS season begins. During the HS soccer season there are non-league games and league games, both count towards a teams overall record.

Thanks for explaining so, CIF playoffs are based on non-league and league games vs league results.
 
Regardless of how they're placed in to a division, what about the division playoffs for Southern Section? Let's get some predictions...I think the new alignments for each division should make things interesting. First round games for girls start tomorrow so who wants to throw out some first round winners? Upsets? Boys start Friday...what do you think?

I predict all Sunset League teams winning in Division 1, First Round. Sunset league teams( at large bids )in Division 2 also predicting victories. I predict FV goes deep into Division # 2 CIF.

Lmao, why don't you define pre-season for us! Keep in mind.....Pre means before. My DD HS played 2 pre-season games and they didn't count towards their overall record. Their non-league games did though. #sheesh

In case you also need to know.
1. HS soccer season means non-league and league games
2. Post-season means playoffs

Well, from what I've seen of this seasons D1 games, teams that were hot early/mid season aren't the same today...... If this years playoff is anything like lastyears, well be seeing a few underdogs rise up.

I like JSerra, Los Al, Aliso Niguel and Palos Verdes. Not gonna comment about Edison, but I'll tell you right now there are some players that are peaking at the right time!!

Edited to add I like the Mater Dei Cypress matchup and I am going to throw in for Cypress because I love some of the talent on that team (though they suffer from spells of inconsistency
 
Division 1 girls scores, winners of each group will face each other next round....

Upper Half of Bracket:
JSerra 4 Dana Hills 1
Los Osos 1 LB Wilson 0

Palos Verdes 2 San Juan Hills 1
Los Alamitos 2 Northwood 0

Santiago(Corona) 2 Millikan 1
Chino Hills 1 Notre Dame (S.O.) 0

San Clemente 3 Esperanza 0
Huntington Beach 3 Harvard Westlake 0

Lower Half of Bracket:
Westlake 2 Rancho Cucamonga 0
Troy 3 Foothill 0

Mater Dei 3 Cypress 0
Tesoro 1 Edison 0

Upland 2 South Hills 1
Hart 2 LB Poly 1

Santa Margarita 2 El Toro 0
Aliso Niguel 5 Oaks Christian 1

Some good match-ups for round two. Predictions?
 
Agreed, predictions are usually biased anyway. How about thoughts instead? For example, games with Aliso Niguel and Santa Margarita, Mater Dei and Tesoro, Los Al and Palos Verdes, some potentially exciting matches for a second round. Already have one seeded team out and some newcomers to the division from division 2 last year getting a win under their belt in the always ultra competitive division 1 playoffs (Westlake, Troy, Palos Verdes, Santiago, and Hart). Will they be able to navigate through the second round and in to the quarters?

Tesoro beating Edison is a big shock to me.

Not to me, which is why I didn't want to make the call on this game and jinx it. Edison struggled scoring all season..lots of late OT golden goals. They had a strong defense, although starting keeper was out of town. Tesoro has two game changing players offensively and their junior star scored the winning goal.
