After a one-year absence, City College of San Francisco has made its way back to the Northern California Regional Playoffs.

With a 7-3 overall record, the Rams were named the No. 4 seed and will host No. 5 Fresno City College on Saturday, Nov. 22 in the regional quarterfinals. Kickoff is set for 12 p.m. at George M. Rush Stadium.

In the other NCFC quarterfinal, No. 3 Diablo Valley College (9-1) hosts No. 6 Butte College (8-2) on Nov. 22 at 1 p.m. College of San Mateo (9-1) and Modesto Junior College (8-2) received the top-two seeds as well as an opening-round bye.

Ticket prices for the California Community College Athletic Association (3C2A) postseason game at CCSF are $12 for general admission and $8 for all identified students, faculty, staff, senior citizens age 60 and over, and children under 12 years old. Tickets are avaiable online in advance through the 3C2A Tickets Page. Live stream info will be announced when available.
 
CCSF will look to bounce back from its loss in the regular-season finale this past Friday night at Diablo Valley College. Despite the loss, the Rams earned a share of the Bay 6 League championship along with DVC and College of San Mateo with all three squads finishing with 4-1 marks. It was CCSF's first league title since the 2021 state championship season.

The Rams are four wins away from the program's 10th state championship.

No. 5 Fresno City enters the postseason at 6-4 and finished second in the Valley League with a 4-1 record. CCSF and Fresno City will be meeting for the second time this season. In Week 4, CCSF edged Fresno City by a final score of 29-28 for its second win of the season.

The winner of the contest advances to the NorCal semifinals to take on San Mateo at CSM on Nov. 29. The Northern California Championship is set for Dec. 6 with the 3C2A State Championship scheduled for Dec. 13 at the site of the Southern California regional winner.
