They will venture away from home to square off against the Western Wildcats at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

The score at the end of the third wound up being the final score as the Lions just coasted through the last quarter.
Chaminade-Madonna's defense made their presence known, laying out the QB five times. The heavy lifting was done by Donta Simpson Jr and RJ Alphonse, who racked up all five sacks between them.
