Lathrop High’s girls soccer team will get to host its first-ever Sac-Joaquin Section postseason appearance, Sierra is the top seed in Division III and Ripon is No. 2 in defense of its Division V championship.
Six of the area’s seven schools are represented in the girls soccer playoffs. East Union and Manteca joins intra-city rival Sierra in the Division III bracket, while Ripon Christian returns to the postseason in Division VI after narrowly missing out last year.
The Sierra and East Union boys are on opposite sides of Division III, and Weston Ranch drops to Division IV but with a challenging path to the final.
The SJS released brackets Friday afternoon. First-round contests will start at 3 or 6 p.m.
