SANTA BARBARA COUNTY’S SUPER SEVEN (1/30/2012)
1) Dos Pueblos Chargers (17-7, 3-2 CL) — The Chargers defeated San Marcos in their only game last week. Dos Pueblos has only three regular season games remaining before beginning the postseason as one of the top teams in Southern Section’s Division 2-A.
2) Santa Barbara Dons (13-9, 2-3 CL) — Santa Barbara, which beat Righetti and St. Joseph in the preseason, has lost four straight. Two were league games and two were non-league contests with Valencia and Rio Mesa.
3) St. Joseph Knights (6-15, 4-3 P7) — Despite their overall record not looking that pretty, St. Joseph leaps ahead of Righetti after defeating the Warriors 56-52 last week. The Knights have been up and down in 2012, winning every other game since the New Year.
4) Righetti Warriors (11-10, 4-4 P7) — The Warriors suffered two Pac-7 losses last week to Arroyo Grande and St. Joseph that bumped them down a spot in the county’s Super Seven.
