Tesoro isn’t overlooking El Dorado despite the Hawks losing two consecutive games. Titans coach Brian Barnes said his team was in the same position last season and look what happened – Tesoro won its league.

“El Dorado is still a good football team,” Barnes said. “They have won two CIF championships in a row. That’s more than I can say about us. El Dorado is struggling right now, but things were looking bleak for us last year at 1-3.

“They’ll be ready.”
