Thursday October 7th <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pasadena (4-2) at Burbank (1-5) (Burroughs) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pasadena is up, Burbank is down. Pasadena has Mekhi Fox and Kaden Taylor, Burbank doesn’t. The only question here is on here is why does Pasadena have another Thursday night game? Dena rolls. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Friday October 8th <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alhambra (2-4) at Schurr (3-3) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both teams need a win to make a move in he Almont. Both are coming off of wins but their opponents were the bottom teams in league – Keppel and Bell Gardens. Alhambra struggled to put away Keppel while Schurr routed BG. The Spartans look like a contender in league. Schurr comes out on top. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Rancho (7-0) at Whittier (2-4) <\/strong>(California)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Rancho got the win it needed last Friday night against Cal, but the Dons aren’t about to let up now. Whittier took care of Santa Fe and needs at least two more wins in the Del Rio to have a shot at playoffs. The Cards won’t get it here. Elijah Mitchell, Anthony Bonilla and company have too much. The Dons remain unbeaten. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arroyo (6-0) at South El Monte (3-3) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arroyo is also unbeaten through six games. The Knights schedule hasn’t been exactly murderers row but they have done what they had to do. Arroyo has outscored its last two opponents 104-0. South El Monte has been Jekyll and Hyde. The Eagles pounded Gabrielino 49-14 last week but lost to Baldwin Park 57-7 the week before. Both teams have played Glendale. South lost to the Nitros 32-20 while Arroyo blitzed them 49-0. The Eagles will have trouble keeping up with the Knights passing attack. Arroyo goes to 7-0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arcadia (3-2) at Muir (4-1) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe the best game in the Pacific League this week. It’s tough to get a read on either team. Arcadia has shown some offense in wins over Marina, Whittier and La Salle but the Apaches were humbled by Monrovia and fell to Burroughs. Muir has won a couple of low scoring affairs by scores of 12-6 and 6-2. The Mustangs opened with a win over Burbank last week to open league play. The Muir defense should be able to hold down Arcadia. Can the offense do enough? Muir wins a close one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pasadena Poly (3-2) at Monrovia (6-0) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monrovia is going undefeated in the regular season. The Wildcats won’t be tested until the playoffs. Pasadena Poly got a nice win last week to open Rio Hondo League play but it won’t be nice for the Panthers Friday night. Monrovia dropped 60 on a La Canada team last week that some thought was going to compete. All Wildcats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monrovia 48 Pasadena Poly 7 <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baldwin Park (6-0) at Rowland (2-4) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baldwin Park has a raised a few eyebrows by going undefeated through the first six games. That won’t change this week. Rowland has picked up a couple of wins but over teams that were not the quality of the Braves. BP has out scored its last two opponents 112-7 and haven’t scored less than 34 points in a game all year. Braves win…big.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Downey (5-1) at Paramount (2-3) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paramount doesn’t have the players to stay with Downey. The Vikings have won five straight after a season opening loss to Corona del Mar. Downey gets started early and puts it away in the third quarter. Downey gets its sixth straight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
