So Crespis out ? that's so wrong.

Wondering how Tesoro got at-large berth over Crespi and San Clemente. San Clemente beat Tesoro in league. Crespi had better record.

eric sondheimer ‏@latsondheimer
Serra League was voted fourth best out of five leagues in Pac-5 by selection committee. That cost Crespi.

San Clemente beat Tesoro in league that is worth 4 points. Same league ........

Something smells fishy

Lets see what happens in a few hours

4th Best????

Why are they "voting". Look at the overall win-loss percentage from each league and that's how you should determine, which league was better. Are you kidding me? Tesoro, a team who got its coach fired, and has no semblance of a passing game, and lost to every team they played that was halfway decent gets in over a Crespi team that beat Alemany, Westlake, and possibly the Arizona and Nevada state champs. This is ridiculous and CIF should be ashamed of themselves.

You want a hall pass every year for finishing 3rd and 4th ?? Handle your shat in league rather then blaming CIF !!!!!

Be interested in the formula that ranks the Serra League 4th in the pac 5. That being said, i dont think that hurt Crespi, they are a fourth place team. People can argue that they deserve it more than tesoro all they want, i will challenge any to find a year where 2 teams from the same league got an at-large bid.

Win the games you are supposed to win, and you never have to worry about the cif screwing you over. The Celts had thier chance to prove they belong in the post season, and like many others, I think they could make a run, but they didnt take care of business. People can compare records, schedules, and strength of leagues, but in the end, there is a critiria for post season qualification, and the best way to ensure your participation is to win enough games....period!

8-2 is good, just aint good enough. Go Warriors!

They didn't even spell Tesoro right

Aren't Harvard Westlake and St. Francis in the same division?

I think Crespi should have gotten in.

And in the Northern the Pac-7 got 5 bids

This year, harvard westlake and st francis, two at large teams from same league.

Should have been more specific, 2 at-large bids from a league with 5 teams.....

Good old Sniperfire was spot on! Lets see if the pairings are close now that we have the correct 16 teams.

Whether you hate them or love them, you ALL have to admit, Crespi got robbed! You loose only two games by one score (both times Crespi beat themselves ((the reffs didnt help either)) ) and you are out while all the lesser teams (including ones Crespi pummeled) move on. No excuses for the games we lost, we did loose and hindsight is always 20/20.

You cant help but feel bad for the kids that were making a name for themselves that previously were not as fortunate to get the hype some of the others did in the off season. Thats a whole other thread though...

Bottom line, they got it WRONG!

WarriorFag69, 

You sir are an Ahole!  

Funny **** tho.

How Tesoro got in. 

Reported in OC Register, 

Tesoro won a three-way coin flip with San Clemente and Trabuco Hills to be the South Coast League’s No. 3 team (behind 1. Mission Viejo and 2. El Toro).

Bishop Amat got the first of the Pac-5 Divsion’s two at-large berths. That made it Crespi (8-2 record) vs. Tesoro (7-3) for the other at-large berth.

The points system that determines at-large teams gave three points to Tesoro — two for strength of schedule, one for strength of league.  Crespi got one point for having the superior record.

The CIF-Southern Section football coaches advisory committee ranked Pac-5 leagues 

The CIF-Southern Section’s Football Coaches Advisory Committee ranked the leagues in the Pac-5 Division, as to does in all 13 11-man playoff divisions.

It had the South Coast ranked ahead of the Serra League, and that ranking played a part in Tesoro’s selection over Crespi for one of the Pac-5′s two at-large berths.

Brian Barnes was one of the 45 coaches on the advisory committee. It became a 44-coach committee when Barnes was fired last week as Tesoro’s coach.

I also think the register got this part wrong, Tesoro got the first at large. Tesoro has a win over Chino Hills and BA a tie, that fact and the strength of league would give Tesoro the first bid, that would leave BA for the 2nd, and leave crespi out.

Everyone thought Tesoro was done after the loss to San Clemente, because for Tesoro to get back in San Clemente had to lose to Trabuco Hills and then win the coin flip. How lucky was that. 

I'm expecting to see a post at any time stating that they made a mistake and Calabasas is in
