Nick Bueno and Monrovia Perfect so Far <\/p><\/div>\n

All game times are 7:00 PM unless otherwise noted<\/p><\/div>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thursday October 1<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Arcadia (0-2-1) at Glendale (1-2)<\/p>\n

Last Year: Arcadia 22-6<\/p>\n

All-Time: Arcadia 27-21<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Arcadia bounced back against Temple City even though the Apaches only managed a tie. Taylor Legace is proving to be one of the top players in the area. Glendale doesn\u2019t seem to have the same fire as it had last year- although the Nitros did hold on to beat South Pas last week. \u00a0Arcadia starts off league on the right foot.<\/p>\n

Arcadia 28 Glendale 14<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Diamond Ranch (1-3) at Glendora (1-2)<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Glendora is actually a break for the Panthers. DR plays a schedule that is second only to USC. With Bishop Amat next week and league play to follow, the Panthers want a win to get some momentum going. They should get it here.<\/p>\n

Diamond Ranch 24 Glendora 10\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rowland (3-0) at Covina (1-2) \u2013 Covina District Field<\/p>\n

Last Year: Rowland 42-21<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Rowland is a surprising 3-0 or is it a surprise? Michael Ball is playing well but we expected that. He\u2019s getting plenty of help from Josh Onvughe and Steven David. Covina played Walnut tough before falling by just four points.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 The Colts will give Rowland a battle as well but in the end the Raiders will prevail.<\/p>\n

Rowland 21 Covina 17\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Friday October 2<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Temple City (0-2-1) at Rosemead (1-2)<\/p>\n

Last Year: Rosemead 45-14<\/p>\n

All-Time: Temple City 11-5<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Temple City will get a victory. We\u2019re just not sure when. You have to like the hard nosed play of Max Ruckle, Justin Sutton and quarterback Justin Smith. I keep saying this week after week but the Rams could be 3-0 with a break here or there.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Rosemead has been bitten by the injury bug. Joey Diaz and Luis Diaz are both out and reports are that they could be on the shelf for a long time. Joey Diaz is the heart of the offense and without him it\u2019s going to be a rough go.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Temple City finally gets its first.<\/p>\n

Temple City 20 Rosemead 17\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

South Pasadena (0-3) at Alhambra (2-1) \u2013 Moor Field<\/p>\n

Last Year: Alhambra 43-14<\/p>\n

2007: Alhambra 35-3<\/p>\n

\u00a0 The Moors have dominated this game the last few years and there\u2019s no reason to believe they won\u2019t again. South Pas is still on the outside of the win column looking in and last week the Tigers fell to Hoover.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Yeah, Hoover. Alhambra wins big.<\/p>\n

Alhambra 35 South Pasadena 6<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Northview (0-3) at South Hills (1-2) \u2013 Covina District Field<\/p>\n

Last Year: South Hills 27-14<\/p>\n

\u00a0 The records are similar but the teams aren\u2019t. South Hills\u2019 losses have come at the hands of La Habra and Tesoro. The Vikes have fallen to quality opponents as well but they are not in the same league as those two. Northview has lost by an average of 24 points per game.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 South Hills gets back to its traditional winning ways. The Huskies should win big.<\/p>\n

South Hills 34 Northview 7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

La Salle (3-1) at Monrovia (4-0)<\/p>\n

Last Year: Monrovia 52-7<\/p>\n

All-Time: Even 2-2<\/p>\n

\u00a0 La Salle has surprised M-Town before. Three years ago, the Lancers stunned the Wildcats in the playoffs after Monrovia beat them big in the regular season. Two years ago they stunned them again the regular season.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 That won\u2019t happen this year. Monrovia is too big and too bad. An abundance of running backs, an elusive quarterback and a stout defense have led the Cats to a 4-0 record. Nobody has come close to stopping Nick Bueno. Make that 5-0.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Monrovia 38 La Salle 17<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

California (1-2) at Schurr (2-1)<\/p>\n

Last Year: California 14-7<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Schurr was devastating last week against a previously undefeated Wilson team. Chris Chairmonte, Nick Castillo, and Aaron Cantu were in complete control. Why is it the Spartans always get overlooked?<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Cal has lost twice but Rowland and La Mirada can\u2019t be classified as chumps. Last week the Condors bounced back to beat Pacifica. Close game but Schurr gets it done.<\/p>\n

Schurr 24 California 21<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Muir (0-3) at Burroughs (1-2)<\/p>\n

Last Year: Muir 13-10 \u00a0<\/p>\n

2007: Muir 33-3<\/p>\n

\u00a0 It\u2019s not often you see Muir at 0-3. But that tends to happen when Oaks Christian, Diamond Ranch and Venice are your opponents. Of course if you talk to Ken Howard it\u2019s all about getting ready for league play. It\u2019s finally arrived this week in the form of Burroughs.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Burroughs hasn\u2019t been feasting on cupcakes either falling to the likes of St. Francis and Schurr. Last year was only a three point game. This one could go down to the wire again. The Mustangs win their first.<\/p>\n

Muir 23 Burroughs 20\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Arroyo (2-1) at Walnut (3-0)<\/p>\n

Last Year: Walnut 14-10<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Good early season match up. Both teams are on track to have big seasons. The Mustangs are undefeated while the Knights slipped once \u2013 last week against Claremont.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 It\u2019s the running attack of Milan King and Leonard Rhodes vs. the passing game of Steven Rivera and Chris Rodriguez. I\u2019ll go with the Knights. They should be able to air it out enough to hold off Walnut.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 The defense needs to step up to shut down Rhodes and King. They might stack the front line.<\/p>\n

Arroyo 20 Walnut 17<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Baldwin Park (3-1) at El Monte (0-3)<\/p>\n

Last Year: Baldwin Park 10-0<\/p>\n

Baldwin Park 5-3<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Baldwin Park might be the best team in the Valle Vista. El Monte is struggling right now. Quang Phong was out last week for the Lions but the backup Manuel Santa Cruz filed in admirably.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 The Lions will need him and a lot more to hold off the Braves. BP is looking to get back on track after a loss last week to Bonita. Braves walk off with the W.<\/p>\n

Other Games:<\/p>\n

Damien (1-3) at Charter Oak (3-1)<\/p>\n

Last Year: Charter Oak 42-21<\/p>\n
