HS FOOT: East Valley League showdown on Friday

Expect a shootout Friday when Canoga Park (3-0) plays host to Poly of Sun Valley (2-1) in an East Valley League opener, as both average more than 46 points.

The difference is, Canoga Park, led by quarterback Frank Koppenhauer, loves to pass the football, while Poly, led by running back Kevin Ervin, runs a double-wing.

"It should a be a good game. It's going to be one of those games that goes back and forth," Poly coach Scott Faer said. "They beat us last year, but we didn't have Kevin Ervin that night because he was hurt. We'll see what happens in the end."
