Valencia 35, Hart 24
Expect the Vikings to come out angry after a close loss to Calabasas last week. A much stouter performance from their defense can also be expected after allowing 65 points in the loss.
Golden Valley 31, Saugus 18
With Nathan Eldridge’s health still in question, Golden Valley gets the sizeable edge. The Cents will also get their first exposure to USC commit DeGabriel Floyd.
Canyon 28, West Ranch 25
The Cowboys are on a roll and should provide the Cats with their biggest test to date. Shawn Gallagher is proving to be one of the area’s finest dual-threat quarterbacks.
Santa Clara (Oxnard) 18, Trinity Classical Academy 10
Things won’t get any easier for the Knights following their close Faith Bowl loss. Santa Clara is 4-1 and coming off 39-0 win over Fairmont Prep.
