Thursday September 8 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Good for Cal for scheduling up but this will be a tough hill to climb. Downey lost its first game to Corona del Mar but then took care of El Toro and Jurupa Hills with relative ease. Cal is a good team and the Condors have shown that winning two of their first three games. But they’re not on the level of Downey. Vikings win handily. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Friday September 9 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baldwin Park (3-0) at Schurr (1-2) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baldwin Park has been impressive. Drew Knight and the offense are rolling. Schurr’s defense came to play last week in a shutout of Arroyo. The Spartans will need more of that this week. They make some stops at times but the Braves offense will be hard to hold down all night. Baldwin Park moves to 4-0. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baldwin Park 28 Schurr 17 <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

This isn’t the start that Covina new head coach Aaron Berry was looking for. A tough loss to South Hills and a loss to Diamond Bar has the Colts searching for answers. Northview lost once- to a good Charter oak team- but bounced back last week in style by routing the same South Hills team that Covina just lost to. Northview has the advantage here. Vikes get the W. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Northview 35 Covina 14 <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monrovia (3-0) at Ayala (3-0) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the game of the week. A good chance for both unbeaten teams to see where they’re at. Monrovia is on a roll dropping 58 on El Rancho last week. The Wildcats are averaging over 47 points per game. Ayala scored 40 on Leuzinger last week and is off to a great start. It should be back and forth. Both teams can score. On this night Monrovia scores more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monrovia 38 Ayala 35 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Temple City (1-1) at Mt. View (2-1) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Temple City has split its first two games and hung with Alhambra last week before falling 21-6. Mt. View lost its opener but rebounded to beat Gladstone and Workman the last two weeks. Temple City has had some firepower offensively and has a nice receiver in Judah Douglas. The Rams have enough for the win here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Temple City 24 Mt View 13 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chino Hills (3-0) at Charter Oak (2-0) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This may be the second best game of the week. Charter Oak’s offense is fine. Richie Munoz and company have it going on. The run defense was a concern after the win over Northview but the Chargers improved in that area and rose to the occasion last week in a win over Glendora. Chino Hills has been dominant in its last two victories but struggled to beat Glendora in the opener 13-7 while the Chargers laid the wood to the Tartans last week 37-7. Chino Hills will have trouble stopping Charter Oak’s offense. The Chargers win their third straight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charter Oak 31 Chino Hills 21 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Loyola (1-1) at Pasadena (2-1) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Good win for Pasadena last week. A win over a quality opponent like Damien, especially after being down by two scores showed a lot. The Bulldogs will have to do it again this week. Loyola lost to that same Damien team 34-7 before rebounding to beat Culver City. The Bulldogs are at full strength now and are beginning build confidence. Also they have a really challenging schedule. They get the win. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pasadena 31 Loyola 15<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturday September 10 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

San Dimas (2-1) vs. Bonita (1-2) (Citrus College) Smudge Pot <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the best rivalries in the area will be renewed Saturday night in the famed Smudge Pot. Bonita has started off slow losing two of its first three including last week to La Salle. San Dimas has won two of three including a 33-0 blanking of Santa Fe last week. It should come down to the wire. The Saints make a big play in the end to hold on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
