CCSF was ranked No. 2 in the JC Grid-Wire poll and proposed a postseason game against No. 1 of Texas. Trinity agreed, but National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) executive director George Killian rejected the proposal. Because the California community colleges were not affiliated with the NJCAA, the association had not sanctioned a postseason match involving a California school since 1977.[4]
