Colony (10-2, Mt. Baldy #1) at Charter Oak (8-4, Hacienda #1)

Jordan Johnson is the story of the playoffs leading the Titans past the Spartans and Tartans enroute to the semifinals. Since replacing Josh Thompson, Johnson has passed for 840 yards and thrown six touchdowns.  Ryan Kinard is a reliable running back rushing for 1039 yards this season with 21 touchdowns.  The best defensive back in the Central is Khalil Dorsey and can change the game in a flash with his ball-hawking prowess. Zion Echols is simply amazing and has carried the Chargers on to a five game win streak heading into Friday night’s game. Brian Casteel might be the one player that can shoulder the burden if Echols is stopped. Casteel is a game changer for the Chargers on defense with his aggressive style and hitting.

Los Altos (7-5, Hacienda #3) at Bonita (8-4, Palomares at-Large)

Well so much for their offense not clicking. The Conquerors have managed to put together 73 points in two playoff games to get the semifinals. The return of the Los Altos swag is back as well with Taylor Nevens supplying the power. Nevens has rushed for 1311 yards and scored 13 touchdowns on the ground. Defensively it has never been a question of stopping opponents especially with David Tolmachoff anchoring the front line along with linebacker Carlos Mejia and his team high 118 tackles. The Bearcats have become beasts with Tanner East tossing the ball around the yard. In the win against West Covina he went 15 of 20 for 202 yards and 2 touchdowns while not being picked off. Angel Verdugo is supplying the running attack with 1191 yards and 17 touchdowns. Cruz Garibay is making a statement for defensive player of the year with his 169 tackles and six sacks.
