Did you notice?

That Exavier Edwards led Orange Lutheran with 127 rushing yards, his highest total since Sept. 26. He's finally healthy and his speed could be a factor in the semifinals.

Orange Lutheran-Tesoro

Seating capacity shouldn't be a concern this week, with the game being played at either Santa Ana Stadium or Orange Coast College. If you have a chance to get tickets, do so, this has the makings of being a game to remember. The Tesoro passing game led by Robbie Picazo against the Lutheran secondary. Preston King against Gabe Lemon. The Lutheran running game against the Tesoro defense.

I would pay to watch this one.

See you next week!
