The season's around the corner: practice starts this week

[Dave Keefer]

Southern Section campuses will start to get very busy this week as official football practice begins for schools with zero-week games at the end of August.
Several schools, such as Crespi and Servite, took advantage of last week's final summer activity to have players stay on campus overnight and practice without pads or helmets.
Loyola begins practice on Tuesday. Practicing twice-a-day becomes tricky because of a new state rule that limits practice to no more than 18 hours in a week.
Lots of teams will hold scrimmages against other teams the weekend of Aug. 21-22.
St. John Bosco and Huntington Beach Edison get a head start with games in Hawaii Aug. 22-23.

Rancho Cucamonga has been in pads since Friday.
RC has a scrimmage vs. Gardena Serra on Thursday august 21 @ Los Osos 6pm.

Serra's going to be huge challenge for RC. Serra is just loaded with talent.

Serra is crazy loaded, at least 10 guys with Division 1 scholarships on that roster. They are a top 10 team when our rankings are released, their big question is quarterback who replaces Jalen Greene(USC) is it Wilson, the senior whose dad is the DL coach at USC, or Tate a promising junior.
