No change in the Top 10 this week as all teams won or had a bye.
in our view 7 teams secured playoff spots.
There are a few big games this week with playoff ramifications.
1. (1) Mission Viejo (3-0 7-2) Mission cruised to an easy 42-21 win over San Juan Hills to secure a playoff spot. This week MV hosts #9 El Toro to finish its season. A Diablo win secures a league title, a loss presents a big mess. Next: #9 El Toro (1-1 6-2)
2. (2) Upland (2-0 6-2) Upland continues to dominate Baseline opponents as the Scotts blew out lowly Los Osos 38-0. Lets see if this weeks opponent can present a challenge for U-Hi. Next: Rancho Cucamonga (2-1 5-3)
3. (3) Tesoro (2-1 7-2) Tesoro routed Dana Hills 52-12, no surprise here. This weeks their bye week, with a week 10 contest with SJH. Tesoro should be no worse than the SCL second seed.
4. (4) Chino Hills (2-1 6-2) CH rebounded from a loss to the IVA's with a route of Damien, 41-14. This week CH will have its hands full against a team who badly needs a victory to keep it season going. Next: Etiwanda (2-1 4-3-1)
5. (5) Hart (3-0 6-2) Hart's in the playoffs after beating Golden Valley 38-24. Is Hart sleep walking through league? Next: Saugus (1-2 2-6)
6. (6) Vista Murrieta (3-0 6-2) VM is in after a 50-3 win over Mesa. Let's see if VM has a hick-up this week. Next: Chaparral (1-2 2-6)
7. (7) Los(t) Al (3-0 7-1) LA beat Marina 49-6 to earn a playoff spot. Should be another blow out this week too. Next: Huntington Beach (1-2 2-6)
8. (8) Valencia (3-0 6-2) Valencia rolled with an easy 41-0 victory over West Ranch to secure a playoff spot. Canyon (2-1 4-4) should present a decent challenge for the Vikes.
9.(9) El Toro (1-1 7-2) ET had a bye to get ready for rival MV this Thursday night. An ET win would really send shockwaves in the SCL. Even if ET loses we think they get an at-large bid.
10. (10) Edison (3-0 6-2) Edison had no trouble whatsoever with Newport Harbor, winning 48-7 to clinch a playoff spot. This week is the big game with its rival. Next: Fountain Valley (1-2 5-3)
others:
Great Oak - (2-1 6-2) likely sealed a playoff spot with a win over TV. this week Mesa
Rancho Cucamonga (2-1 5-3) Could have saved it season with a hard fought 16-9 win over Etiwanda. Has its hands full this week with #2 Upland.
Etiwanda (2-1 4-3-1) Needs a win to keep its playoff hopes alive. Has a shot if the offense can muster some consistency. Faces #4 Chino Hills (2-1 6-2)
