Of all the NorCal regional brackets, D2 might be my favorite. @YCHonkerBsbl lands the #1 seed, while 28-1 Chico hosts @AcalanesDonsBB. Casa Grande has the Mercado/Laubscher dynamic duo. Incredible pitching in this grouping!

.@Gaucho_Baseball is headed back to NorCals with a 6-3 win over Foothill in the third-place game in Division 1. @jackmountanos5 with three hits, @brady_laubscher and @Danny_Mercado25 with just 2 ER on mound allowed #PDPreps

NorCal High School ⚾️ WAR Leaders | Top 💯 Updates are always ongoing. I should have end of season stats for several more teams by the end of next week. @LandynPlaut is approaching 10 WAR, but also a huge section semifinal game vs Woodland tomorrow.

The top 💯 high school players in NorCal, as ranked by combined WAR. WAR includes hitting, baserunning, fielding, & pitching. It adjusts for team SOS & player class, and multiplies by games played. Two-way players tend to stand out here. Again, SEVERAL highly-coveted ⚾️ players.

@noahgiovannelli @Spencer98490143 @Danny_Mercado25 @brady_laubscher @jackmountanos5 FINAL | Casa Grande 10, Justin-Siena 4 Gauchos score 10 runs over two frames to split series with Braves. VVAL title race still wide open #PDPreps

Some nights my internet lets me down & I can't make updates. Tonight is one. So here's a look at the top 💯 WAR scores for every high school player I've calculated this year. It's mostly still NorCal & many states are missing. Commit info incomplete. Still, these dudes can play!

Updated CA North Coast Section WAR Leaders Casa Grande duo @Danny_Mercado25 & Brady Laubscher lead another very strong group. This is combined WAR, so two-way players tend to stand out. NCS has some star hitter & pitcher-only players.

@brady_laubscher @jamesearldole @DrewBugbee2025 @DaltDeadman2027 @Danny_Mercado25 Final: Casa Grande 4, Petaluma 1 Mercado bounces back with a fly out, pop out and a strikeout to end it. @Gaucho_Baseball (15-3, 6-1) knocks off rival Petaluma (14-2, 5-2) in series opener. Series finale at Petaluma Thurs. #PDPreps
