CAMPBELL (CBS SF) — Two men suffered non-life-threatening injuries and a high school playoff crowd was forced to flee to safety while the teams drove to the ground for cover on the field Friday night after gunshots rang out at the CCS Division 1 championship game between St. Francis and Serra high schools.

I predict the crowd was mostly non-white.
It had metal health issues.
And it was…wait for it…..black.
What school DIDN’T have the regular shooting at a ball game after high school?
Nothing like watching someone get blown away at a high school football game. I saw a man get shot several times and killed at the Oil Bowl football game around 1972 in the North stands at Coyote Field. This was before they moved the game to Memorial Stadium. Yes, both involved were from the race of professional victims.
Sounds like two Catholic schools so this is a little surprising.
Not a legal gun in whole crowd.
The only option is to run like scared cats.
Not in the South Bay.
It ain’t Casperville no mo.
“Sounds like two Catholic schools so this is a little surprising.”
These schools are no longer so rigid.
Who won?
Smells like “Teen” spirit

Not really. 20 or 30 years ago most Catholic high schools in California were predominantly white, but not so any longer. I’m not sure how or why it happened, but most football and basketball programs at Catholic high schools (at least in So. Cal.) are now predominantly black. These kids come from the ghettos and ‘hoods surrounding Los Angeles. They appear to be pulling the best athletes from black neighborhoods (Compton, Long Beach, etc.), and it’s to be expected that the fans are also from the ghetto/’hood, including gangbangers. And in most instances, you have not just rival gangbangers supporting opposing teams but also supporting the same team since private schools pull kids from different neighborhoods. They might be on the same team, but they are still enemies.
I recall in the 80s, 90s, and early 2000, private Catholic schools like Mater Dei, Service, and St. John Bosco were still a bastion for wealthy white kids, but that has changed over the past 2 decades. So much so, that now they compete in their own conference comprised of private parochial schools only.
Take a look at the rosters for Servite, Mater Dei and St. John Bosco and you will see what I am talking about.
Serra defeated St. Francis by 16-12.
Serra was Tom Brady and Barry Bonds high school
Changing the name of the game to “Dodge the Bullets”, which is much closer to the truth.
