If the MaxPreps state rankings hold true, the near future looks bright for St. Rita. They will go up against Taft in continuing playoff action. The stakes are high as the teams both are all in, each fighting to extend its postseason success.
De La Salle typically have all the answers at home, but last week St. Rita proved too difficult a challenge. St. Rita blew past De La Salle 42-14. St. Rita found their leader in underclassman freshman Kaleb Brown, who rushed for 65 yards and 2 touchdowns on 4 carries.
Meanwhile, Solorio typically have all the answers at home, but Taft proved too difficult a challenge. Taft captured a comfortable 29-13 victory over Solorio. This was a playoff matchup, so the win was all the more important for Taft (and all the more bitter for Solorio).
Their wins bumped St. Rita to 5-6 and Taft to 7-5. Taft's offensive line will need to gear up for a tough test against a St. Rita defensive front that amassed four sacks against De La Salle, so we'll see if they are up to the task.
