Big Valley’s
Morgan Stevenson heading to Illinois...
North Valley Rapids make national softball finals
ROSEVILLE - The North Valley
Rapids 18U fastpitch softball team are packing their bags for a flight
to Moline, Illinois, after earning one of two California berths in the
Fastpitch National Championship set for this Sunday through August 3rd.
Big Valley's ace softball pitcher Morgan Stevenson is a member of the
North Valley Rapids, and is looking forward to not only the trip, but
the chance to play for the National Championship.
Stevenson just completed her junior year pitching for her Big Valley
Cardinals, compiling a stingy 1.330 ERA, striking out 227 batters while
walking a mere twenty in 126.1 innings of work. She finished the
year with a .540 batting average and was her leagues MVP.
She is in her fourth season of playing for the North Valley Rapids,
"and is very excited about this trip," noted her mother, Sharmie
Stevenson.
The family will fly out of Reno this Friday morning to attend the
national tournament, retuning home August 3rd.

Fall River’s
Erik Hubbard among stars
All-Star football game kicks off season
Game set for Oroville Saturday
OROVILLE - The 2008 football
season will once again officially kick off with the 31st Annual Lion's
Club All-Star Classic set for Harrison Stadium here this Saturday
evening at 7pm.
Recently graduated seniors from throughout northern California will
suit up and play college rule football in the annual Classic.
Fall River graduate Erik Hubbard will represent the Intermountain Area
on the North squad. The offensive and defensive lineman was
All-League last season in the Shasta-Cascade conference, as the
Bulldogs rumbled their way to the league title and Section championship
(Division V) in undefeated style. He was also the school's
Homecom-ing King.
Foothill high coach Bryon Hamilton will mentor the North squad, after
leading his Cougars to an undefeated 12-0 season last year and the
school's first section championship. Assisting him are Dean
Johnston, Jim Schuette, Roger Wilson, Ted Meredith and Dave DesRochers.
Northern California small schools are well represented on the North
squad, including some familiar names to Intermountain Area football
fans, including Tulelake's Rey Chavolla (WR/DB) and Luke Woodson
(TE/DE), Modoc's Jacob Ketler (C/OL), Etna's Logan Dysert (RB/LB) and
Hayfork's Nick Gonzales.
