Monrovia (2-0) at El Rancho (2-0) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Good game to find out where you’re at. El Rancho is 2-0 but the combined records of the Dons two opponents, Don Lugo and Bell Gardens, is 0-4. I think I know where Monrovia is. The Wildcats are good. We knew that when they beat Bonita in overtime in Zero Week and then followed that up with a blow out win over Arcadia last week. El Rancho will give the Cats fits and battle them early but Monrovia will be too much as the game goes along. Who’s going to cover Carlos Hernandez and Jaylen Moore? Monrovia goes to 3-0. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pasadena (1-1) at Damien (1-1) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both teams bounced back with a win after losing in Zero Week. Pasadena got on track with 35 points in a win over Glendora while Damien routed Loyola. Pasadena is good and again, as has been stated numerous times, will run right through the Pacific. However you still have to wonder if the Bulldogs are at a level with a team like Damien yet. We’ll find out Thursday night. Damien wins…close. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alhambra (1-1) at Temple City (1-0)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A win over Alhambra would be huge for Temple City. To start 2-0 with a win over a solid opponent would give the Rams a lot of confidence going forward. The Moors bounced back with a victory over Glendale after falling to South El Monte. Temple City is improved and will be in the game in the fourth quarter, but in the end Alhambra comes away with the win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

St Pius X (2-0) at St. Paul (2-0)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another good early season matchup. St. Paul is coming off a 37-0 shutout of Huntington Park and has scored 72 points in its first two games. St. Pius X blanked Muir last week 35-0 and the Warriors have outscored their first two opponents 76-3. Both teams have solid quarterbacks in St. Paul’s Andrew Maushardt and Dieter Barr at St. Pius X. Should be a shootout with both of these guys throwing the ball all over the lot. St. Paul is the last team standing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glendora (0-2) at Charter Oak (1-0) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glendora has a schedule that can only be described as a death march. The Tartans are still looking for their first win after falling to Pasadena last week. It won’t get any easier this week. Charter Oak has an explosive offense similar to Pasadena’s. Quarterback Richie Munoz is the real deal. The Chargers are susceptible to the run and if the Tartans can pound it they can keep it close. Charter Oak emerges with the victory. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rosemead (0-1) at San Marino (1-1)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rosemead gave up 56 points to La Canada in Zero Week while San Marino is coming off a one-point win over Arroyo with a touchdown in the last ten seconds. The Titans defense played well too in the win. They have enough to get the win here. Titans win their second straight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

San Marino 21 Rosemead 13 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schurr (0-2) at Arroyo (0-2) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both teams need a win. Schurr and Arroyo have both lost heartbreakers and have both been blown out once. Defense figures to be the key here. If either team had made just one more stop they would be 1-1 right now. Flipping a coin would probably be the easiest way to determine the winner in this one. Schurr makes a late stop and holds on in the fourth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Northview rushed for over 300 yards in a 38-24 loss to Charter Oak last Thursday night. If the Vikings can establish the running attack again they should be fine against South Hills. The Huskies offense isn’t nearly as dynamic as the Chargers and Northview did shut down Muir on opening night. Northview runs over South Hills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
