The 2017 fall season was a testament to how unique prep football is in the Journal's coverage area. The Journal also launched the fifth season of the award-winning show, “The Blitz,” a web series that reached new homes, extending coverage with our sister papers, the Manteca Bulletin and Oakdale Leader. This year, the All Area/All Journal team is made up of the schools from the coverage area including Turlock, Pitman, Turlock Christian, Hilmar, Delhi and Denair.
