CHP issues feather alert for missing Pit River Tribe woman, last seen in Redding
Police in four California counties are asking the public's help to find a missing "at risk" Shasta County woman who was last reported in Redding more than two months ago, according to the California Highway Patrol. The CHP issued a feather alert — one that indicates a missing person of indigenous heritage — for 26-year-old Destiny Gomez, a member of the Pit River Tribe. Gomez was last seen at 4 p.m. on Jan. 14 in the area of Vansicklen Way and Alamine Drive, according to the alert. That intersection is located in a Hilltop Drive neighborhood off Peppertree Lane in north Redding. Gomez is 5 feet tall, weighs 130 pounds and has brown hair and brown eyes. She's likely on foot, the CHP said in the alert, and may have gotten as far as San Francisco. Note to readers: If you appreciate the work we do here at the Redding Record Searchlight, please consider subscribing yourself or giving the gift of a subscription to someone you know. The alert went out Thursday evening on social media, and to law enforcement in Shasta, Tehama, Alameda and San Francisco counties. The CHP asked anyone who sees Gomez to call 911 to report her location. The Redding Police Department asked anyone with information about this case to call 530-225-4200. The CHP issues a feather alert when local and tribal law enforcement agencies aren't able to locate a person confirmed missing. Other criteria include possible physical danger to the person, or the person has a disability.

Clovis West to play in regional final, plus which other Fresno-area teams remain alive?
The Clovis West girls basketball survived a CIF Open Division NorCal regional semifinal with a 69-62 victory over San Ramon Valley. The second-seeded Golden Eagles moved on to the regional final against nemesis Archbishop Mitty in San Jose on Tuesday with the winner advancing to the state championship game in Sacramento. No. 3 San Ramon Valley had the lead in the fourth quarter, but the Golden Eagles stifling defense made things problematic and took advantage of the mistakes. Alexis Swillis led the way for Golden Eagles with a team-high 23 points. San Ramon Valley had come into the game on an impressive run beating Acalanes 76-43 and Pinewood 56-32 'There's a couple of more talented teams coming in and they blew out two Open Division teams,' Clovis West coach Craig Campbell said. 'They shoot well and are a well-coached team. That's a great win.' Clovis West was aided by a buzzer-beater just before halftime when Riley Walls nailed a 3-pointer. She finished with 10 points. Clovis West will try to knock off Archbishop Mitty for the first time in three previous meetings. Mitty won 53-45 (2022), 63-43 (2023) and 71-34 (2024). Campbell knows it will be tough but his team will be ready. 'I wish it was here in the nest,' he said. 'Time to lace them up and see what we can do.'

Clovis West's hope for top-seed in the CIF Open Division were dashed. ‘Very disappointed'
Clovis West hopes of getting a No. 1 seed in the California Interscholastic Federation girls basketball Open Division came to halt Sunday night. The Golden Eagles are seeded No. 2 in the Northern California behind top-seed Archbishop Mitty. After Saturday's Central Section Division I win over Clovis, Golden Eagles coach Craig Campbell felt it was his team and Mitty fighting for the 1-2 seed. He was right, but he had hoped his team would get the top-seed based off a 32-0 undefeated record. 'Very disappointed,' he said Sunday. Perhaps the selection committee saw one common opponent between the two. Both played Pinewood. Clovis West defeated Pinewood 54-50 in the Bay Area and Mitty beat Pinewood 59-51 in the Central Coast championship at Santa Clara. Following Saturday's win, Campbell laid out why they should be the No. 1 seed. 'Mitty's a tremendous team and it's no knock, but since they've lost their best player for the year, they did lose three games. Three games to nationally ranked teams. Really good teams, but how do you discredit Clovis West, who's been the only team that's been in the Open Division every year in the entire state over Mitty and all the others,' Campbell said. 'To go 32-0, travel 7,500 miles and beat a state champion and a state runner-up, like how do you say no this team is still better than you. We played the last three years and our season ended at Mitty. I feel like our kids earned the 1 at worst the 2. You go down the list of the three through what's probably eight ... It's a gauntlet. It's going to be a dog fight. You could be one and done and still have had a hell of a year.' Nevertheless, the Golden Eagles will await the winner between No. 3 San Ramon Valley or No. 6 Pinewood. On the line for Clovis West is keeping its undefeated record intact. 'Both those teams are outstanding,' Campbell said. 'Their coaches are good friends of ours. It's going to be a great game either way. At the end of the day you got to go out and win.' Clovis will play in Division I and earned the No. 2 seed and will host No. 15 Oak Ridge. On the boys side, Fresno Christian earned the top-seed in Division IV and will face No. 16 Citrus Hill in a SoCal Regional game. The Eagles took care of business Friday defeating Monache 73-50. Also receiving a top-seed is the Immanuel girls in NorCal Division III. The Eagles will meet No. 16 East Union. Immanuel won the Division IV title after a 58-36 victory over Santa Ynez. Round 1 begins Tuesday at the host sites at 7 p.m. Here's the rest of the schedule involving Fresno-area teams: CIF state playoffs Boys basketball Tuesday, 7 p.m. Division I NorCal No. 12 San Joaquin Memorial at No. 5 San Ramon Valley No. 13 Liberty-Brentwood at No. 4 Clovis North No. 14 Clovis West at No. 3 Lincoln-Stockton No. 15 Monterey Trail at No. 2 Buchanan Division II NorCal No. 16 Bullard at No. 1 Rocklin No. 10 Cardinal Newman at No. 7 Clovis East Division III NorCal No. 10 Central at No. 7 Carmel Division IV SoCal No. 16 Citrus Hill at No. 1 Fresno Christian No. 10 Monache at No. 7 Granada Hills Charter Division V NorCal No. 14 Chowchilla at No. 3 Argonaut SoCal No. 9 La Puente at No. 8 Strathmore Girls basketball Open Division No. 2 Clovis West bye March 8 No. 3 San Ramon Valley/No. 6 Pinewood winner at No. 2 Clovis West Division I NorCal No. 16 San Joaquin Memorial at No. 1 Folsom No. 12 Central at No. 5 Priory No. 15 Oak Ridge at No. 2 Clovis Division II NorCal No. 14 Clovis East at No. 3 Colfax No. 15 Grant at No. 2 Sierra Pacific March 6 NorCal No. 8 Sacred Heart Cathedral/No. 9 Christian Brothers at No. 1 Caruthers SoCal No. 8 Palos Verdes/No. 9 Rolling Hills Prep winner at No. 8 Palos Verdes Division III NorCal No. 16 East Union at No. 1 Immanuel Division V SoCal No. 10 Lindsay at No. 7 Santa Ana
