Rio Hondo Prep 28, Mission Prep 21: Nate Tayco runs wild (173 yards, 4 TDs), Coach Ken Drain wins fifth CIF title, RHP wins 14th CIF title and Kares avenge earlier loss to very good Mission Prep team. Bowl game next? It was my first RHP game and it was great. I was VERY impressed with the quality of football. Very, very impressed.

Monrovia 23, Paraclete 7: Threepeat! Valley’s top football program right now. Only West Covina and RHP can make a case.
