Colony (3-4) at Charter Oak (6-1) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colony has bounced back in the last couple of weeks with two Sierra League victories. Charter Oak just keeps rolling along. The Charger train won’t be derailed here. Charter Oak gets the win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chino (2-5) at South Hills (4-3) (Covina District Field) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chino suddenly turned it up after five straight losses with two Hacienda League wins. South Hills is also 2-0 in league with tough wins over Diamond Bar and Walnut. Hard one to call. It could go either way. It looks like Chino has found its groove. Cowboys win their third in a row. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chino Hills (5-2) at Damien (5-2<\/strong>) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chino Hills has been playing good football lately with league wins over Ayala and Etiwanda in the last two weeks. Damien is 2-0 in the Baseline as well and last week the Spartans rallied to beat Upland in an impressive one-point victory. Damien has also knocked off teams like La Serna, Loyola and St. Paul. I don’t see them slipping against Chino Hills. Damien stays perfect in the Baseline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diamond Bar (0-7) at Los Altos (3-4) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s hard to figure out how Diamond Bar is winless. The Brahmas have played a tough schedule, no doubt, but you still think they would have come away with a victory. Believe it or not Diamond Bar could still make the playoffs if it can win its last three games. This is the week the comeback begins. Los Altos gives Diamond Bar all it can handle and might even hold an early lead but the Brahmas get it done in the end. Diamond Bar gets its first. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Monte (3-4) at Arroyo (4-3) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

That loss to South El Monte hurt last week. The Lions could have made a statement with a win over the Eagles or even if they made it close. But South El Monte pulled away for a 21-point victory. El Monte is looking to get back on track this week in a game that could decide second place in the Mission Valley League. The Knights struggled to beat Gabrielino last week and will need to be careful against a hungry El Monte team. The Lions will run the ball, make some key stops and pull out a win late. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monrovia (6-1) at South Pasadena (5-2) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monrovia took care of San Marino and Temple City. The Wildcats will also take care of South Pasadena. The real test is going to be October 25th against La Canada. Monrovia gets started early and never relinquishes the lead. Cats improve to 3-0 in the Rio Hondo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baldwin Park (4-3) at San Dimas (5-2) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Braves have surprised a few people winning their first two league games over Alta Loma and West Covina. They have won four straight overall after starting the season 0-3. However San Dimas is a different animal. The Saints lost last week to a strong Northview team but when the offense is hitting on all cylinders they are hard to beat. San Dimas has scored over 40 points in four different games this year. The Saints are the second-best team in the Valle Vista. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

La Mirada (2-5) at Mayfair (5-2) (Bellflower)<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s been a rough year for La Mirada. The Matadores have won a couple of games but when they play a team that tests them they have fallen short. Mayfair will test them. The Monsoons still have their sights set on a Gateway League title. They’re 2-0 in league and they will face Downey in Week 10 in a showdown. Mayfair will have its way with La Mirada. The Soons will score early and often. Mayfair rolls. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
