CIF-SS high school postseason schedules

The CIF Southern Section postseason has commenced for several high school fall sports in Southern California, specifically focusing on girls volleyball and flag football.

Initial schedules released for flag football and girls volleyball included various matchups across multiple divisions. In flag football, the Open Division featured Dos Pueblos against Newport Harbor and Westlake, while girls volleyball playoffs included matchups such as Ontario Christian at Santa Barbara and Ventura at Vista Murrieta.

As the postseason progressed, local programs like Santa Barbara High entered significant milestones, including the school’s first-ever CIF-SS postseason appearance in flag football. Additionally, discussions regarding the Division 1 football playoffs emerged, with the size of the field being determined by competitive equity rankings. Projections indicated the Division 1 field might consist of eight or nine teams, a factor expected to influence subsequent divisions and at-large postseason opportunities.
