Mater Dei looks to get back on winning track against Orange Lutheran while Sierra Canyon hosts Serra (Gardena).

Mater Dei (Santa Ana) finds itself in a different position for the first time this season as the Monarchs fell from the No. 1 spot after losing 28-0 to St. John Bosco (Bellflower) last week. It was the first time since 2011 that Mater Dei was shutout.

The last team before the Braves? Orange Lutheran (Orange), which hosts the Monarchs on Thursday in one of the Golden State's top football games of the week.

Mater Dei, led by senior quarterback Elijah Brown, has won 11 straight meetings against the Lancers.

Top-ranked St. John Bosco looks to improve to 8-1 against Trinity League foe JSerra Catholic (San Juan Capistrano) on Friday.



One of the other top games in the state, as well as one with national implications, features No. 3 Sierra Canyon (Chatsworth) hosting No. 16 Serra (Gardena). The Trailblazers are No. 22 in the MaxPreps Top 25 and haven't allowed more than 14 points in any game. The Trailblazers also have an explosive offense averaging 42 points per game, led by quarterback Wyatt Becker.
