DIV 5 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

La Serna (10-3) at Palos Verdes (8-5)<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both teams are evenly matched. They do have a common opponent in Edison. La Serna lost to Edison 32-21 while Palos Verdes fell to the Chargers 41-7. The Lancers haven’t lost since the Edison game having won seven straight. Palos Verdes has had some impressive wins including a big victory over a quality Mayfair team two weeks ago. It will be a close game but the Lancers get it done. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warren (6-7) at Rio Hondo Prep (11-1) (Arcadia)<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some people wrote Warren off early in the season when their starting quarterback and wide receiver, both UCLA commits, left the program. But the Bears regrouped, won three Gateway League games and here they are in the Division 7 Finals. They deserve their props. Rio Hondo Prep just keeps rolling along. The Kares are knocking down everybody in their path and have now advanced to their second consecutive CIF championship game – this time in Division 7 after winning in Division 9 last year. The Kares running attack is devastating. The Bears will have trouble stopping it. Rio Hondo Prep wins its second straight CIF title. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

DIV 11<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Rancho (9-4) at Portola (7-6) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tough matchup for El Rancho but the Dons have had tough matchups throughout the post season. They beat a previously unbeaten Los Amigos team then held off San Gorgonio. Portola beat Baldwin Park last week and has the home field advantage. Dons survive, conquer and win the title. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Rancho 24 Portola 23 <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturday November 30 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

DIV 6<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Murrieta Mesa (9-4) at Glendora (9-4) (Citrus College) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Murrieta Mesa wiped out Ontario Christian, then beat Northwood in the second round. Last week the Rams beat a talented St. Francis team. Glendora has won five of its last six with the only loss being at Charter Oak. Tough game to call. Murrieta Mesa wins it in the fourth quarter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Murrieta Mesa 27 Glendora 24 <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

DIV 13 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gahr (8-5) at Pasadena (7-6)<\/strong> – 6:00 p.m. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pasadena peaked at the right time. The Bulldogs hit the playoffs running and haven’t looked back. Last week they blew out Lynwood 37-0 in what looked like their best performance of the year. Pasadena is too athletic for Gahr. Bulldogs raise the championship banner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pasadena 28 Gahr 20 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

DIV 14<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

San Gabriel (7-6) at Pioneer (8-5) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

San Gabriel took third in the Almont League and then took advantage of a Division 14 playoff berth. The Matadors are simply better than the other teams in the Division. San Gabriel has been running the ball with authority. Pioneer can score but the Titans won’t be able to make enough stops. Mats win. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
