CIF HS Games: Results & Details From
Wed.  2/6/02 & Standings--(Feb. 7, 2002)

Ok, it's the last week of regular season games, and there were some surprising results last night. Here's what we know about Wednesday's games gathered from reports sent to us from team representatives, coaches, players and parents, as well as what we've been able to gather from local newspapers and websites. If you know of a game that we missed, a score that is unreported, or some details that we're missing, send it in via e-mail.

We've also added league standings, which we believe are current as of Wednesday's results (we've used the standings which were published by the LA Times as compiled by Eric Maddy, so whether they are correct or not is something that we just can't vouch for, but we'll take the Times' word for it).   Hopefully, with league races coming down to the wire, and seedings and playoff pairings being determined this weekend, this will be useful to someone.....
