Who’s Hot: Huntington Beach Edison is in the thick of the Sunset League race after sweeping defending champion Los Alamitos. Colleen Burke had 16 kills, two blocks and an ace; Ashley Collier had six digs and five kills; Kelly Hyder had 14 digs and six kills; Kari Pestolesi had 11 digs, 10 kills and two aces, and Karla Readshaw had six digs, two kills and two aces.

Player to Watch: Jaimarie Sutherland, an outside hitter at Fullerton, had 37 kills last week to lead the Indians to a five-game victory over La Habra, the perennial Freeway League champion. Fullerton plays host to the rematch on Oct. 28.

Match of the Week: Cypress at Anaheim Katella, today, 5:30. Cypress is led by returning all-league players Alicia Walker, a 6-2 outside hitter, Angela Guess, a 6-0 opposite, and 5-10 middle blocker Amanda Rodriquez. Katella figures to give the Chargers a run for the Empire League title.
