SAN CLEMENTE (4-3, 1-1) VS. TESORO (3-4, 0-2)
Where, when: Tesoro High, Thursday, 7 p.m.
Outlook: Both teams have lost to Dana Hills, and last week Tesoro got hammered by Mission Viejo, 60-14. This is a crucial game for both. Mission Viejo and Dana Hills are going to finish in the top two positions in the final South Coast standings (Dana-at-Mission is Nov. 13, the final week of the regular season). That leaves one guaranteed playoff berth in the South Coast League, and the winner of this game is in the driver’s seat for that No. 3 spot.
