PREP FOOTBALL GAMES AT A GLANCE
No. 1 Esperanza (5-0, 0-0) vs. No. 2 Los Alamitos (5-0, 0-0)
7 TONIGHT VETERANS STADIUM
This is as good a rivalry as there is in Orange County. The series stands at 9-9-1, but Esperanza has won the last three and each time the Aztecs have gone on to win or share the Sunset League title. Tustin and St. John Bosco have had success running against Los Alamitos, but the Griffins’ offense is so explosive that in the end it didn’t matter. Both quarterbacks are strong, accurate and smart. Los Alamitos’ Ryan Hanson is 56 of 74 for an Orange County best 1,183 yards with no interceptions. Esperanza’s Grant Wagner is 60 of 90 for 995 yards with three interceptions.
