It did not take long for Serra football coach Scott Altenberg to begin looking ahead to next week's massive showdown against Carson.

"Our guys are going to be fired up for that game," Altenberg said via phone during his long trip home from Victorville.

Carson took Mater Dei to triple-overtime before falling, 46-43, in a nationally televised season opener on Wednesday. Serra crushed Silverado, 56-21, with two kick returns and one punt return for touchdowns on Friday night.

Both have superb athletes. Both have high expectations. And both know this could be the Game of the Year in the South Bay in a game at Serra at 7 p.m.

"We were a little sloppy tonight, and we know we need to play better than that," Altenberg said. "We'll be ready next week. We even have some guys from Carson on our team, and our guys are looking definitely looking forward to it."
