7:30 TONIGHT BREA OLINDA HIGH

Orange Lutheran Coach Jim Kunau was pleased with the top seeding in Division XI, but he’s not so sure he liked not playing in the last week of the regular season. “Sometimes those things help you, but I like playing the games better,” he said. The Lancers bring an eight-game winning streak into tonight’s game. Running back Dee Meza is averaging 12 yards a carry and quarterback Jason Whieldon has completed 63% of his passes. Santa Paula doesn’t have much of a running game. Cardinal backs have combined to net 999 yards, led by Morgan Montoya and Ivan Mercado. Quarterback Chad Metelak has completed 52% of his passes.
