South Hills will take on Lawndale in each of the teams' fifth playoff game at 7:30 PM on Friday. Both teams have allowed few points on average (South Hills 10.29, Lawndale 12.57), so any points scored will be well earned.
South Hills might be getting used to good results now that the squad has 14 wins in a row. They came out on top against Oxnard by a score of 23-14 last Saturday. No one put up better numbers for South Hills than junior Juaquin Elliott, who brought his A game into the match. He rushed for 185 yards and 1 touchdown on 23 carries. Juaquin Elliott has been one of their standout athletes in their past seven games.
Meanwhile, Lawndale weren't the first ones on the board, but they got there more often. They were able to grind out a solid win over Palos Verdes, winning 34-20. This was a playoff contest, so the win was all the more important for Lawndale (and all the more bitter for Palos Verdes).
Their wins bumped South Hills to 14-0 and Lawndale to 12-2. Since neither squad is a stranger to landslide victories this season, you'd better bet it will be hard-fought showdown.
