Edison, Mater Dei Ready for Rematch

The Edison and Mater Dei baseball teams will meet for the second time this season on Tuesday. This time, the stakes will be much higher.

Second-seeded Mater Dei (25-4), which won a coin flip Saturday and will host the game, can erase the sting of an April defeat to Edison with a victory over the Chargers (20-8-1) in a Southern Section Division II semifinal.

Trabuco Hills (21-8) will host Riverside Poly (22-7) in the other semifinal.

Third-seeded El Dorado (24-5) will host Laguna Hills (18-10), which upset second-seeded West Torrance, in a Division III semifinal.

In a Division V semifinal, upstart Whittier Christian (16-12) will play at Los Angeles Baptist (22-5). The Heralds, a wild-card entrant, defeated top-seeded Riverside Woodcrest Christian in the first round.

Capistrano Valley (21-8) and Fontana Miller (22-7) will play in a Division I semifinal at 7 p.m. at Blair Field in Long Beach.
