I've just watched most of the Fox Sports Prime Ticket replay of the Poly High football team's 2-0 victory over defending champion Orange Lutheran at the Home Depot Center.
A phenomenal defensive effort by the Jackrabbits put them into next Saturday night's title game against Crespi, also in Carson.
How phenomenal was it? It was so phenomenal that Poly will be playing for a championship despite an offensive performance on its end that led to exactly 0 points.
Amazing.
The gut feeling here is that the offense will have to be much, much better against Crespi if Poly is going to celebrate again next Saturday night.
And what about Dominguez losing at Palmdale, 28-27, after a bungled field-goal attempt from the 4-yard line?
Valley Christian got smacked by Santa Clara (42-20) and that wasn't totally unexpected (if the lopside margin was).
That leaves Gahr to play St. Paul Saturday night for the right to play Palmdale in the final.
How about those Gladiators?
Caveat: I'm a 1973 Gahr graduate. The Gators (aka, Gladiators) never played in the CIF SS playoffs during my four years at the school.
