Last year, there was a five-way tie for first with these teams at 3-2: Edison; Esperanza; Fountain Valley; Los Alamitos and Newport Harbor.
A series of coin flips took Edison and Newport Harbor out of the playoffs (and Newport Harbor had won its final three games, including victories over Esperanza and Los Alamitos, both of which made the playoffs via those coin flips).
No. 2 Mission Viejo set a school record by scoring 70 points in a dominant victory over Aliso Niguel on Friday night. Exavier Edwards and Dallas Kessman each scored three touchdowns.

Welcome to another edition of my final thoughts on Week 7.
Beware of the Diablos: When Mission Viejo hits the field in its black uniforms, you might as well run for cover. I don't think there is a faster team in the county. Defensively, they were everywhere, flying around the ball, hitting and knocking down Tesoro receivers and backs. Offensively, Exavier Edwards has jets. Jake Marshall = fast. Joey Branker has amazing speed. If the offensive line continues to play as it has and Dallin McEwen plays as he did Friday, then the Diablos could be destined for a run in the Pac-5 playoffs.

No. 12 Tustin earned a 35-20 victory Thursday night, but only after it was tested by a determined Villa Park team. The Spartans scored twice in the fourth quarter, but they couldn't pull out the victory.
