Unlike the "Battle of the Bell" football game between Edison and Fountain Valley, tonight's showdown between No. 2 Newport Harbor and No. 5 Corona del Mar didn't need to switch venues or deal with a ticket uproar.

Girls volleyball: Newport Harbor-CdM preview
November 6th, 2009, 11:56 am by Chris Tobolski, OCVarsity.comFootball: Another coin flip coming up in the Sunset?
November 3rd, 2009, 1:13 pm by STEVE FRYER, ocvarsity.com
Last year, there was a five-way tie for first with these teams at 3-2: Edison; Esperanza; Fountain Valley; Los Alamitos and Newport Harbor.
A series of coin flips took Edison and Newport Harbor out of the playoffs (and Newport Harbor had won its final three games, including victories over Esperanza and Los Alamitos, both of which made the playoffs via those coin flips).
Football video: Fountain Valley not happy with win over Newport Harbor
October 30th, 2009, 1:47 am by Jonathan Khamis
Fourth-ranked Fountain Valley wasn't happy with its performance in a 37-32 victory over Newport Harbor on Thursday night. The Barons botched two punts, which led to safeties, and were heavily penalized in the contest.
Quarterback Dominic Ragland and Kyle Middlebrooks played well, each scoring two touchdowns. Check out highlights of the contest and postgame interviews in this video by OCVarsity.com's Jonathan Khamis.

Frankly Fryer: Fountain Valley vs. Newport Harbor
October 28th, 2009, 6:03 pm by STEVE FRYER, ocvarsity.comSunset League
No. 4 FOUNTAIN VALLEY (7-0, 2-0) VS. NEWPORT HARBOR (4-3, 1-1)
Where, when: Newport Harbor High, Thursday, 7 p.m.
Outlook: There is a lot of excitement about next week’s Fountain Valley-Edison “Battle for the Bell” game – and that’s not good for Fountain Valley. The Barons cannot look past Newport Harbor to their big rivalry game against Edison. Newport is good. The Sailors beat Los Alamitos two weeks ago, handing Los Al its first loss, then got clobbered by a terrific Edison team, 34-6, last week. Edison can make good teams look bad (see “Edison 23, Servite 9” for details).

Football: Look back at Newport Harbor's upset
October 17th, 2009, 9:09 am by Chris Tobolski, OCVarsity.com
Examining the numbers prior to Friday night's shocker pulled by Newport Harbor over Los Alamitos, you couldn't have imagined the Sailors winning.
But they did, 23-20, against the previously unbeaten and fourth-ranked Griffins.
And to do it on fourth-and-goal in the final minutes was spectacular. I was stunned.

October 13th, 2009, 11:53 pm by Chris Tobolski, OCVarsity.comThe much anticipated showdown of the county's top two teams produced a twist before the first ball was served.
Jane Croson out for Los Alamitos. It wasn't the only injury news - Newport Harbor was without setter Mackenzi Campbell - but it was the biggest.

Girls volleyball: Newport Harbor grabs Game 1
October 13th, 2009, 6:02 pm by Chris Tobolski, OCVarsity.comUpdate 8
Newport Harbor took the opening game 25-17. Los Al's service return broke down late. Newport Harbor has plenty of weapons and they are using them all. Los Al needs to find a way to get middle Emily Hartong involved. She has two kills, the only two times she's swung. Newport Harbor is controlling the net right now. Los Al has been down before to start, so this is nothing new to them.
Update 7
2nd timeout Los Al. NH expands lead to 22-15. Maddy Brown is back serving and Los Al is having fits with its servie return.
Update 6
Timeout Los Alamitos, and you know what that means. Newport Harbor leads 18-15. NH middle Katey Thompson has been the key so far. She has 1 of the team's 3 aces, and has combined on 4 blocks. Without Croson out, the hitting depth now favors NH.
