AVC (36-5 overall, 16-0 Foothill Conference), ranked No. 3 in the state and No. 2 in Southern California Southern California, also colloquially known as SoCal, is the southern portion of the U.S. state of California. Centered on the cities of Los Angeles and San Diego, Southern California is home to nearly 24 million people and is the nation's second most populated region, , is seeking its first state championship berth. The Marauders can take a big step towards that when they play host today to conference rival Chaffey of Rancho Cucamonga Rancho Cucamonga (răn`chō k  'kəmäng`gə), city (1990 pop. 101,409), San Bernardino co., S Calif. in a doubleheader.

I know she doesn't care about that,'' AVC coach Cindy Vargas said. ``She just cares about the team and what she can do to help the team. ``These girls are all team players.'' Vargas believes that is the reason her team is in such a strong position. AVC, which set a school record with its 19th consecutive victory in the Mt. San Jacinto game, can stage a Southern California regional playoff by finishing the regular season ranked among the top four teams in Southern California. The May 6-7 Southern California Regional playoffs feature 16 teams in four double-elimination tournaments with the winners advancing to the state tournament. AVC has been host to a regional playoff just once, in 1994. ``A lot is at stake for us,'' Vargas said. ``It's not just the conference title.

That objective had to be modified when his team fell out of title contention, but Green believes the Marauders, who likely will finish third in the conference, have an excellent chance of qualifying at least two and as many as four individuals for the Southern California individual tournament. Sophomore Erin Wek and freshman Victoria Tafesh (Lancaster) have the best chance of advancing from the this week's conference tournament. Sophomore Jazzlin Jones (Highland) and freshman Samantha MacConnell also figure to contend. AVC did not qualify anybody for the regionals last year. Green said his players' chances of advancing depend heavily upon the draw, which won't be announced until today. ``It would just be a testament to their hard work if we can send all four girls (to the regionals),'' Green said. ``If we can get two of the four, it would still be a nice achievement.'' gideon.rubin(at)dailynews.com (818) 713-3607 |
