Sheldon Vs. Mater Dei Tonight; Friday's Scoreboard

Before I get to yesterday's scores from around our city, tonight both Jon Gudel and I will be covering the Division I State Championship basketball game between the defending champions, Mater Dei High School of Santa Ana and "your Sheldon Huskies." Jon wrote a great preview in Friday's Citizen. 

In our Jon vs. John column we both predicted a Mater Dei win, which if it happens, would be their 9th overall, the most by any California high school. But, we'll be pulling for Sheldon. We've never had a local high school in this position, ever. Wouldn't a state championship look good at Sheldon?

The only state championship we've ever had has been in wrestling and that's happened only five times at Elk Grove High School, the most recent being Lefi Letuligasenoa, who won the 285-pound title in 2010.

So, follow me on Twitter (@EGCitizenJHull) tonight. I'll be tweeting often.

Here's yesterday's scores:
