THIS WEEK’S BIG GAMES

Granada Hills (4-0) at Kennedy (1-3): This is the 13th game in a cross-town series that Granada Hills leads, 7-5. It matches the top offense against the top defense among Valley-area City teams. Granada Hills averages 356.3 yards per game, while Kennedy has allowed an average of 104.5 yards per game. Granada Hills quarterback Jeremy Leach has thrown eight touchdown passes. He has not been intercepted.

San Fernando (1-3) at Thousand Oaks (4-1): This is the second meeting between Marmonte and Valley 4-A league teams. The Marmonte took a 1-0 lead in the series Friday when Camarillo defeated El Camino Real, 34-14. The game will be fought on the ground, featuring Thousand Oaks runners Marc Monestime and Mike Moore against the San Fernando wishbone.

Burroughs (4-0-1) at Schurr (3-2): Burroughs, the surprise team of the Valley area, showed its first signs of weakness in a tie last week to lightly regarded Crescenta Valley. Schurr, a traditional Foothill League power, will be Burroughs’ first tough league opponent. Hart will be the other.
