Share

7:30 P.M. FRIDAY NEWPORT HARBOR HS

This one features two of the county’s more prolific rushers in Andre Stewart (310 yards rushing in week No. 7) and Marquis Colvin (five touchdowns in victory last week). No mismatch there, but the defensive contrasts could decide the outcome. Villa Park has scored an average of 49 points in its last six games, but it has allowed 76 points in the last two weeks. Newport Harbor has allowed only 83 points in the season and has three shutouts. Last week the Sailors recorded nine sacks and allowed El Dorado only 69 total yards in a first-round playoff victory.
