The Saints are 4-1 and are coming off a huge 46-9 victory over Eastlake. St. Augustine is ranked in the top four teams in San Diego County and number 20 in the State. Led by junior quarterback Rodney Thompson the Saints have a explosive offense and can score a lot, quickly. Elijah Preston moves the chains on the ground while Luke Lacey and Jordon Books are dangerous receivers.

The defense is punishing, disciplined and tough to move the ball on but they faltered against Orange Luthern. “We are not playing well right now” said head coach Coley Candaele. “We need to get better”.

Temecula Valley lost their first game of the season to Paloma Valley last week and are looking to get back on track against Tahquitz. The Golden Bears are led by their quarterback duo of senior Vincent Bowes and junior Shane Oberhuber.  Running back Lika Palmer moves the chains on the ground and receiver Zac Simon is quick and dangerous and can make big plays to shake things up in a hurry.

The Titans are 1-3 having won heir first game of the season last week 45-14 against Rancho Mirage. Tahquitz is led by senior quarterback William Keegan and running backs Marquan Conerly-Warren and Nuri Smith. CJ Sullivanis their top receiver.
