The South East Jaguars will square off against the Bernstein Dragons at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Bernstein took a loss in their last game and will be looking to turn the tables on South East, who comes in off a win.
South East is looking to give their home crowd another W after opening their season at home two weeks ago. They blew past Maywood CES, posting a 41-0 win at home.
South East found their leader in underclassman Edward Rivera, who rushed for 120 yards and three touchdowns on only six carries. Rivera's longest rush was for an impressive 50 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total. The team also got some help courtesy of Bryce Johnson, who rushed for 42 yards and a touchdown.
South East wouldn't let Maywood CES keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. South East can thank Marlon Watson and Ethan Gonzalez for forcing both of them. Watson's also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing a fumble and making three total tackles in addition to snagging an interception which he returned one-yard for a touchdown.
Meanwhile, Bernstein had to suffer through a 56-6 loss at the hands of Bishop Alemany. While losing is never fun, the Dragons can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 934th, while the Warriors are ranked 192nd).
South East came up short against Bernstein in their previous meeting back in August of 2023, falling 36-30. Will South East have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more football content.
