Oaks Christian vs. St. Bonnie is HERE!!!

Well, this game is officially ON, no worry about ambient smoke, ashes, etc. It's 90 minutes before kickoff, and the place is PACKED ... not a seat in this house.

"It's an amazing crowd. I've never seen a JV crowd this big," said Thom Simmons, a Southern Section media rep who helped to organize media credentials. "We have 112 media requests, and there were only 78 for the De La Salle-Long Beach Poly game a few years back. For a CIF standpoint, it's always gratifying to have this kind of attention for any event, and football is the biggest thing on the block. It's a real treat for these kids because they're getting first-class treatment. What a great event."
