What that study failed to point out was the fact that not every section has private schools in it, and therefore are obviously not winnable by a private school. A more accurate study would only include sections that have private school teams in them.

So if I understand correctly, it all evens out?

The CIF-Southern Section did a big report that showed the percentage of CIF championships won by private schools is equal to the number of private schools in the section. And many of the top public schools in the county have had many top players from outside of their attendance areas — Brea girls basketball, Troy girls basketball … and the number of former Catholic school guys who transferred to public school programs — Clark Evans, QB, from Santa Margarita to Los Alamitos; Mark Sanchez, from SM to Mission Viejo; John Michael Davis, LB, from SM to Tesoro … it is a long list. And it is a long topic.

I mean, we do have a 75% public school representation in the PAC 5 semifinals. Lakewood beat Servite and Tesoro beat Mater Dei.

So Steve Fryer, what do you think about all this public vs. private debate? Do you think recruiting matters? Anyone from the OC Register staff can answer. I’m interested in hearing your responses.
