2021-22: Week 16-A: Scripps Ranch Boys Win State D-IV Championship

Scripps Ranch joined Gardena Serra, Bellflower St. John Bosco, and West Hills Chaminade as teams that have won state championships in football and basketball in the same school year since the state CIF reinstated the football championship in 2006.

The Falcons, behind gridiron stars Jax Leatherwood, Dean Paley, and Lamont Wilkerson, who scored 19 points, defeated Napa Justin-Sienna, 46-37.

Leatherwood,  who threw the winning touchdown pass to Paley in the Falcons’ 31-28 state D-IIA championship over Santa Clara Wilcox, scored seven points, had six rebounds, and blocked eight shots.

There were no state titles to be had in the 1953-54 school year, but Chula Vista won Southern California small school championships in football, basketball and  baseball.

Ross Branson won the state girls D-IV title by defeating Imperial, 46-23.
