Ayala has won five straight games at home, while Bonita has won five straight on the road, but those streaks won't matter much on Tuesday. The Ayala Bulldogs will welcome the Bonita Bearcats at 6:30 p.m. The two teams have allowed few points on average, (Ayala: 10.4, Bonita: 7.8) so any points scored will be well earned.
Ayala's offense might be in the hot seat on Tuesday considering what happened against Aliso Niguel on Thursday. They lost 26-0 to the Wolverines. The Bulldogs' loss signaled the end of their three-game winning streak.
Meanwhile, Bonita won a game that couldn't have been any closer, slipping by Claremont 20-19. Given the Bearcats' advantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 13th, while the Wolfpack are ranked 195th), the result on Thursday wasn't entirely unexpected.
Tressa Beatty continued her habit of posting crazy stat lines, throwing for 128 yards and three touchdowns.
Bonita didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off three passes before the game was over. The picks came courtesy of Leah Reynolds and Grace Tolan. Reynolds is also on a roll when it comes to defended passes, as she's now defended at least one in the last five games she's played.
Ayala's defeat dropped their record down to 19-6. As for Bonita, their win bumped their record up to 13-0.
Ayala might still be hurting after the 38-15 loss they got from Bonita in their previous matchup back in September. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Beatty, who threw for 226 yards and six touchdowns while picking up 11.3 yards per attempt. Now that Ayala knows the damage she can cause, will they be able to stop her this time? There's only one way to find out.
