Outlook: Hanford will have to slow down Greg Bell if it is to have a chance against Bonita Vista. Bell has been over 200 yards in each of the last three playoff games, with 11 touchdowns in those three outings. Stopping the run isn't a guarantee of beating Bonita Vista, however, as quarterback Anthony Posada has thrown for over 2,000 yards. Hanford counters with a dynamic duo pair of 2,000-yard producers: Joseph McDaniel rushing and Ryan Johnson playing quarterback.
