For the second straight week the most anticipated game of the weekend featured Trinity League powers as No. 4 St. John Bosco (Bellflower, Calif.) improved to 9-1 with an impressive 24-10 win over No. 5 Servite (Anaheim, Calif.). The Braves held Servite's prolific passing game to less than 100 yards and on a crucial 4th-and-5,
Katin Houser found
Chedon James for a 39-yard touchdown pass that iced the game with 2:26 remaining.
Pierce Clarkson, Bosco's other four-star quarterback, completed all five of his passes for 155 yards and touchdowns to
Jabari Bates and
Colin Chase, as the win all but guarantees the Braves a No. 2 seed in the CIF Southern Section Division 1 playoffs while Servite will most likely be the three-seed.
National No. 1 Mater Dei (Santa Ana) rolled to a 56-14 win over JSerra Catholic (San Juan Capistrano) and will be the top seed.
No. 7 Collins Hill (Suwanee) got its most impressive win of the season with a dominant 40-10 win victory over Mill Creek (Hoschton) to finish the regular season 10-0. The Eagles improved to 3-0 without five-star cornerback/wide receiver
Travis Hunter and have been playing great football on both sides of the ball as they get ready for the AAAAAAA state playoffs.
No. 10 Chandler (Ariz.) was in a tough battle against Casteel (Queen Creek) but pulled out a 21-17 win to reel off its 43rd consecutive victory.
Nicco Marchiol and No. 15 Hamilton (Chandler, Ariz.) improved to 8-0 with a 32-12 win over Highland (Gilbert) and have a huge showdown against the Wolves on Nov. 12 after a matchup with Higley (Gilbert) next week.
No. 6 Bergen Catholic (Oradell, N.J.) rolled to a 21-0 shutout win over rival St. Peter's Prep (Jersey City) to finish the regular season 9-0. It was the fourth shutout of the year for the Crusaders defense and Princeton-bound running back
Ryan Butler rushed for nearly 200 yards and two touchdowns.
In a huge WCAC showdown No. 24 St. John's (Washington, DC) outscored Good Counsel (Olney, Md.) 20-0 in the fourth quarter to pull out a 34-21 win. The Cadets improved to 8-0 and have their regular season finale on Nov. 5 at (5-4) Gonzaga (Washington, DC).
