The postseason is officially here. Win or go home.

The CIF Southern Section Division 1 playoffs (8 teams) will start its quarterfinals next week, but Divisions 2-14 started its opening round (of 16) this week.

Due to the competitive equity model, which uses computer rankings to create the playoff divisions and pairings, don't be surprised if there are 'upsets' in the first round. Last year, No. 16 Portola defeat No. 1 Don Lugo in Division 11 and No. 15 Vista Murrieta beat No. 2 Villa Park. More will come in 2025.
