The Culver City Centaurs(3-1) post of the last couple of weeks is up. Next they face their last non-league opponent for the regular season, the Dorsey Dons(0-4). Don't be fooled by that record, Dorsey is as good as most 0-4 teams would like to be, but the Centaurs should still be significant favorites in this contest to be played at Culver City.
Not much has changed in the Ocean League as to what we have seen in recent years. Lawndale(3-1) is still the big dog on campus and they looked it last week in their 47-7 victory over Crenshaw. Next, Lawndale takes on what is presumed to be the #1 team in the entire LA City section, Narbonne(2-3).
The El Segundo Eagles(2-2) are looking like the probable third place team in the Ocean League. They beat Pioneer League cream-puff Torrance(0-4), by a score of 49-6 and next face another Pioneer League cream-puff, South Torrance(0-4).
The Hawthorne Cougars(3-1) currently project as the fourth place finisher in the Ocean League and closer to 5th, than 4th, but this is the line that I have the hardest time trusting. The team appears possessed with size on line and speed in the backfield and the QB can throw the ball. They have scored more than 40 points in 3 of their 4 games. While their first 3 games were against cream-puffs, they gave rival Leuzinger(3-1) a significant challenge before losing 50-44 last week. If your team plays a bad game against these guys, they might have the tools to beat you. This week they face a team that rates out as just slightly better than Hawthorne, the Glenn Eagles(2-3) of Norwalk. It should be an appropriate sized challenge for Hawthorne. The Eagles are slightly favored.
The Santa Monica Vikings(1-3) project to 5th in the Ocean League, just a little lower than Hawthorne. Their defense has helped keep them in games, not giving up more that 28 in any of the 4 games already played. They should be able to secure a win in their next game against Godinez(1-3) of Santa Ana.
The Beverly Hills Normans(1-3)still hold the cellar position in the Ocean League and don't look willing to abandon that position. After the season opening victory over Sotomayer broke their losing streak, they immediatly commenced on what is now a 3 game losing streak, by falling to Cerritos 44-6 last week. This week, the Normans have their best and last chance of the season, to get another victory, against Firebaugh(1-4), of Lynwood.
