First of all, the men's hoop recruiting season for 2011 is already off to a rousing start with a verbal commitment from well-regarded PG Michael Caffey, a senior this school year at Corona Centennial HS. (Props to GolfShark on the board for breaking the news.) Caffey is anywhere from 5'10" to 6'1", depending on where you look, and averaged over 12 points and 7 assists per game last season. He should eventually take over Casper Ware's spot in the lineup once he matriculates in a couple of years. More info can be found on Caffey in the following links:

The athletic season is almost here, starting with a Women's Soccer exhibition vs. SDSU at George Allen Field Saturday, 8/14. Women's Volleyball begins a week later on 8/21 with an exhibition vs. an Alumnae squad in the West Gym...er, the Goldmine, starting at 7pm. They host the Baden Classic the following Friday and Saturday, taking on Rutgers, UNLV, Sacred Heart and St. Mary's, all in the Walter Pyramid.
Both the men's and women's hoop skeds are out, though the ladies are still looking for a couple of teams to join themselves and NC State in their holiday tournament December 19-20. They also host Oregon, San Diego, and Joan Bonvicini's Seattle U. squad. The Men open hosting SDSU, and also welcome LMU and a couple of D2 teams to the Pyramid, along with an ESPN "Bracket Buster" opponent in February. Both teams' summer prospecti are available on the school website.
