Let’s start with the Dodgers. Certainly the...
It’s been decided that El Segundo and Lawndale will join the Ocean League for the 2014-15 season while Inglewood and Morningside will move to the stronger Bay League. These will be the first changes in the league alignments since 2004. However, some schools aren’t happy with the plan and appeals are expected.
