2023-24 Girls Week 2: Grizzlies, Torreys Prosper

The status quo prevailed as Mission Hills added two, and La Jolla Country Day, one win in the new year. Bonita Vista jumped into No. 6 with a win over Francis Parker. Scripps Ranch (9-8) dropped off with a loss to Cathedral Catholic (8-6).

This week tests the Lady Grizzlies vs. No. 3 Westview and No. 4 Rancho Bernardo, while the Lady Torreys face two lesser ranked NorCal teams in Stockton.

The Week 2 poll follows weekly Top 10  polls that were newspaper-published since the season start in November.
