A Closer Look at the……
Beginning today we look at the body work, players and projections for each league.
The body work is their win/loss record and how it holds up against others in the league and Southeast Division. We will look at some of the standout players during the previous week or season. The Mid will also project where they may finish with the remainder of the schedule left.
SUBURBAN LEAGUE
Mayfair (5-3, 4-0) – After a one year absence from the top spot in the Suburban the Monsoons are just one win away from clinching the title. Pre-season schedule was a good test run for what might be a Southeast Division playoff run.
BODY OF WORK: 33-27 overall record of opponents, 3-3 against teams with winning records.
Signature Wins: Norwalk (Southeast) 4-3, Valley Christian (Mid-Valley) 5-3
Signature Loss: None
Games Remaining: 10/29 @ La Mirada, 11/05 vs Artesia, 11/12 BYE (4-10 record remaining opponents)
Player of the Week: Jason Logologo – Good night against Bellflower with 124 yards and two touchdowns.
Projection: First
Norwalk (4-3, 2-1) – The Lancers are finally healthy and ready for the playoffs. Need to make sure they take care of business this week and not look ahead to La Mirada.
BODY OF WORK: 27-24 overall record of opponents, 2-3 against teams with winning records.
Signature Wins: St. Paul (Western) 5-2
Signature Loss: None
Games Remaining: 10/29 vs. Cerritos, 11/05 @ La Mirada, 11/12 @ Artesia (6-15 record remaining opponents)
Player of the Week: Elijhaa Penny – He can flat out play and now that he is at 100% the Lancers are awful dangerous.
Projection: Second
La Mirada (4-3, 3-0) – Are the Matadores as good as their league record show or are they frauds with wins against the “cupcakes” of the Suburban League. This week will be the big test for La Mirada as they face Mayfair.
BODY OF WORK: 18-32 overall record of opponents, 0-3 against teams with winning records.
Signature Wins: None
Signature Loss: None
Games Remaining: 10/29 vs. Mayfair, 11/05 vs. Norwalk, 11/12 @ Bellflower (14-9 record remaining opponents)
Player of the Game: Shane Blood – Threw three touchdowns and 158 yards in the win against Cerritos. He will need to have a complete game against Mayfair if they expect to win.
Projection: Third
Bellflower (5-3, 2-2) – Buccaneers do what they need to do in terms of beating the lower tier teams. After a bye this week, Bellflower must take care of Cerritos to make the playoffs.
BODY OF WORK: 22-41 overall record of opponents, 0-3 against teams with winning records.
Signature Wins: None
Signature Loss: None
Games Remaining: 10/29 BYE, 11/05 @ Cerritos, 11/12 vs. La Mirada (6-8 record remaining opponents)
Player of the Week: Michael Jasper – Did yeoman’s work against Mayfair in Bucs loss. Jasper finished the evening with 100 total yards of offense.
Projection: Fourth
Cerritos (2-5, 1-2) – Dons would need to finish 2-1 to make the playoffs this season. That will be a tough assignment for a team that has yet to beat a winning record team.
BODY OF WORK: 20-30 overall record of opponents, 0-3 against teams with winning records.
Signature Wins: None
Signature Loss: Gabrielino (Mid-Valley) 3-4

Projection: Fifth
Glenn (0-8, 0-4) – After turning the corner and finishing 5-5 last season, the Eagles are mired in an eight game losing streak to start 2010. It could be that Glenn has faced eight teams with winning records.
BODY OF WORK: 38-19 overall record of opponents, 0-8 against teams with winning records.
