7 TONIGHT ORANGE COAST COLLEGE

The winner of this game will remain in the thick of the Sunset League title race; the loser is probably out. Los Alamitos, which has won the last two league titles, hopes to rebound after stumbling last week against Edison. Griffin quarterback Mike Catalano, who had one pass intercepted in six games, had three picked off during the last six minutes of the 29-14 loss. Los Alamitos running back Adam Nauta had his least productive game of the season, gaining 39 yards in 16 carries. Fountain Valley is coming off a 28-7 victory over Huntington Beach.
