   Carson and Narbonne battled in a crucial Marine League game tonight, and it got off to a thrilling start as each team returned its opening kickoff for a touchdown. Carson went ahead, 21-20, at halftime, then kept alive its goal of an outright league title with a 41-28 victory.
   San Pedro celebrated Homecoming with a win against Gardena and stayed on track for no worse than a third-place finish in the Marine League. The Pirates tangle with Carson next week.
   Redondo slipped against Palos Verdes Friday afternoon on its way to setting up a possible 4-0 vs. 4-0 duel with rival Mira Costa for the Bay League title, while Mira Costa rolled over Leuzinger to remain on track for an outright title. West Torrance took care of business at Peninsula.
   Lawndale lost its first Pioneer League game (to El Segundo, which is primed for a second-place finish) and now closes the regular season against league-leading Centennial (6-3, 4-0) in Week 10.
   Mary Star lost to Verbum Dei in a battle of previously unbeaten Camino Real League teams.
   Unbeaten Serra rolled to a nonleague victory Saturday to set up a battle of Del Rey League unbeatens with Cathedral next week.

   League play is heating up and the contenders are starting to distance themselves from the pretenders ... Carson and Banning resumed their tradition-rich rivalry tonight with an entertaining game (Banning led, 17-14, at halftime), while Narbonne took care of Gardena, setting up a monster game next week with Marine League title implications.
   Redondo raced to a 21-0 hafltime lead and topped Leuzinger, staying unbeaten in the Bay League. West Torrance dealt a huge blow to Palos Verdes' playoff hopes. Are we headed for a Mira Costa-vs-Redondo showdown for the league title in Week 10? Stay tuned.
   It was San Pedro's turn to abuse the Marine League's last-place team, and the Pirates did just that (as Carson and Narbonne did before them). Serra had little trouble with St. Bernard in another expected blowout.
   Westchester improved to 3-0 in the Western League and Lawndale topped Torrance to take a giant step toward a playoff berth. El Segundo and Lawndale meet next week, with the winner likely to finish no worse than second in league (Centennial is unbeaten).
   Mary Star remains in control of its own destiny in the Camino Real League.

   League play continues, as the contenders try to distance themselves from the pretenders.
   Mira Costa, Redondo and Leuzinger are all looking to improve to 2-0 in the Bay League, while Narbonne tries to keep pace with Carson (which beat Gardena last night) in the Marine League.
   San Pedro and Banning renew one of the area's oldest rivalries, with defending L.A. City Section co-champ San Pedro looking to avoid an 0-2 start to league play.
   El Segundo and Centennial might just be the top teams in the Pioneer League this year, so tonight's winner could gain the inside track to a title.
   Can anyone in the Del Rey League hang with Serra, or should the Cavaliers and Oaks Christian simply advance directly to what seems like an inevitable meeting in a CIF Southern Section title game in December?
   We'll try to get the final scores up as quick as possible. As always, we appreciate your patience.

Grace reinstated

Inglewood's standout wide receiver/safety James Grace, whose hardship petition for a ninth semester of high school was previously denied by the CIF Southern Section, won his appeal and has been declared eligible for the rest of the semester. Inglewood has four games left in the regular season but still has a shot to make the CIF playoffs.
"We're glad to have him back," Inglewood coach Charles Mincy said. "He'll hit the ground rolling and help us out a lot. "
Inglewood (3-3, 0-1) is on a three-game losing streak, so it welcomes Grace back with open arms as it enters the heart of the Ocean League season. After playing at Hawthorne this Friday, Inglewood has key league showdowns at Beverly Hills and at home against Santa Monica.
""We'll have to pull out some big wins and get feeling good about ourselves again," Mincy said.

   League play is finally here for most, and Narbonne and San Pedro renew their sometimes-testy rivalry tonight at SPHS. It's their first meeting since the Pirates rallied to tie the Gauchos on the final play of regulation in the L.A. City Section championship game last December.
   All three Bay League games should shed some light on just who the title contenders truly are, with surprising West Torrance tangling with defending champion Mira Costa and Leuzinger playing a matinee at Palos Verdes.
   Torrance and El Segundo square off in a Pioneer League opener and Banning plays at Gardena against former Banning coach Ed Lalau.
   We'll try to get the final scores up as quick as possible. As always, we appreciate your patience.
