Inland Valley Daily Bulletin Game of the Year: June 3rd, 2017 Chaffey vs. Katella CIF-SS D5 Final. The Tigers were making their first CIF title game appearance since 1971 and had not won a title since 1958. They hadn’t even won a league title since 1995. But they provided quite the thrill this year and it all came down to a marathon title game. The teams were scoreless through 10 innings while exchanging great defensive plays all worthy of a highlight reel. Third baseman Sergio Garcia was the standout for Chaffey. It was Katella taking the goose eggs off the scoreboard in the 11th and eventually ending the three-hour contest. Lawrence Castenada pitched seven scoreless innings before exhausting his pitch limit. Chaffey had five hits, Zach Ehrhardt with three and Rhese Gomez with three.
