Football Game Preview: Mater Dei vs. La Mirada

Mater Dei will be defending their home turf for the first time on Thursday when they go up against La Mirada at 3:15 PM. It might come down to the wire as the game is expected to be close.

Mater Dei were fully in charge last Saturday, breezing past Bishop Gorman 66-10.

Meanwhile, La Mirada couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They found themselves the relunctant recipients of an unpleasant 0-22 punch to the gut against El Toro on Thursday.

Mater Dei's win lifted them to 1-1 while La Mirada's loss dropped them down to 0-1. We'll find out if Mater Dei can add another positive mark to their record or if La Mirada can shake off the loss and take the spring out of Mater Dei's step.
