An interesting week for the vote … last week, Ocean View beat Mission Viejo; Orange Lutheran lost twice, yes, but to the top two teams in the state rankings (Mater Dei and Long Beach Poly) …
My vote, one of six that are used to compile the top 10, went like this today …
Mission Viejo football gets my vote for having the strongest Signing Day class in Orange County. The Diablos have great numbers — nine commitments with the chance to add at least two more — blue-chips at the top, depth throughout and several positions represented.
OCVarsity.com’s Adam Maya is at the Mission Viejo signing day event and confirmed that the Nifty Nine has signed. Here’s the list:
OL Colby Cyburt (UCLA) — future roommate with Esperanza’s Carl Hulick (UCLA commit)
RB Jahleel Pinner (USC)
Long-snapper Josh Antol – Navy
DL Colin Dzubnar – Cal Poly SLO
OL Doug Hanson – Montana St.
LB Ryan Harris – Navy
OL Austin Maass – San Diego St.
CB Anthony Pierce – Hawaii
WR/ATH Austin Reuland – Yale

How I voted this week on the Orange County boys basketball top 10. There are six voters on the panel. My vote is not the final top 10.
1. Mater Dei (19-2 overall, 6-0 league … better than last year? Looks that way)
Mission Viejo right tackle Doug Hanson (6-4, 280) committed Saturday to Montana State, his father, Doug, said in an e-mail.
Hanson visited Division 1-A Fresno State this weekend but picked the FCS contenders.
The Bobcats have reached the FSC playoffs the past two seasons under Coach Rob Ash.
“The deciding factor was the integrity of the coaching staff and student-athletes,” Doug Sr. wrote.
“Another key factor is the strong recruiting class and the ability to put a winning team on the field.”
Last season, San Juan Hills wide receiver Michael Perryman signed with Montana State. Former Mater Dei lineman Ben Tauanuu also plays at Montana State.

Mission Viejo junior safety Max Redfield added another scholarship offer on Thursday: Notre Dame.
USC was the first school to offer Redfield.
Diablos coach Bob Johnson said Redfield also has offers from UCLA, Oregon and Washington.

Mission Viejo All-County cornerback Anthony Pierce (5-9, 170) and all-purpose standout Austin Reuland (6-0, 210) have committed to four-year schools, Diablos football coach Bob Johnson said Wednesday.
Pierce, left, has committed to Hawaii and new head coach, Norm Chow, while Reuland has committed to Yale.
Johnson was high on Pierce all along and hoped the defensive back would find a taker. “Awesome,” Johnson said of Pierce’s commitment.
