The High School State Championships took place over three days of competition, with participation from over 24 high schools from San Diego to Santa Barbara. What a great way to finish up the high school series with good surf and glassy conditions throughout most of the event. Surf ranged from 2-to 4-feet on Saturday & 2-to 3-feet on Sunday and Monday.
This past Sunday at Oceanside Pier, 12 San Diego Div 1 & 2 High Schools competed in 2- to 4-foot surf with good conditions. The event concluded the 5 series team vs team with Point Loma being crowned the Div 1 overall winner and La Costa Canyon “B” Div 2′s overall winner with a 4 & 1 record. The competition between Carlsbad and San Dieguito “A” teams decided who would tie with Point Loma. Carlsbad defeated San Dieguito to tie Point Loma with a 4 & 1 record. Point Loma previously defeated Carlsbad and was deemed the overall winner. Thanks for a great season everyone, and see you all the State Championships.
Sunday in Santa Monica dawned a fun day of surfing for the Scholastic Surfing Series final event of the Channel Season. As I crested the hill on Pico and Ocean, I could see glassy fun waves that were breaking both left and right. The surf was 2-to 3-foot face and remained fun all contest.
With this being the final event of the season there were a lot of competitors fighting for the ratings lead and for team points.
Last weekend at Oceanside Pier, seven Orange County Middle Schools and four High Schools competed in 2- to 3-foot surf with fun and ripable conditions. It was a weekend to remember, as competitors battled it out for top honors. See below for results.

In well overhead surf at San Fernando Place, Mission Beach, high school competitors from Division 1 & 2 showed no fear in the size-able surf, as they put another stellar performance. However, it was Brendan Donovan from Canyon Crest High claiming victory in the Men’s Shortboard division, as well as Hannah Van Veen from San Dieguito High holding the first place medal. Good job to all the competitors.
With perfect conditions, as well as a pumping 3- to 4-foot swell, competitors tore apart Oceanside Pier’s memorable surf with little disregard other than to claim top-honors. In the end, it was Aviara Oaks and Valley Middle School sharing a well deserved win.
