No. 2 El Camino Real (19-9, 8-1 West Valley League): Will travel crosstown to Taft Monday for one last important matchup heading into the CIF Open Playoffs.
No. 3 Taft (39-9, 6-3 West Valley League): Went 8-1 overall this past week and advanced to the championship game of the Palos Verdes tournament, unfortunately they finished the season with two wins in a tournament final in five appearances.
