Breakdown: Laguna Beach (2-1) looks to rebound with the nonleague road game against Bellflower (0-4) after suffering its first loss of the season last week ... The Breakers, ranked No. 8 in CIF Southern Section Division 12, lost 10-7 at Dana Hills last week as the Dolphins improved to 4-0 for the first time in program history. Johnson connected with senior receiver Jack Pigott on a 38-yard touchdown pass to account for Laguna Beach’s only score ... The Breakers have not lost consecutive games since losing five straight in the 2017 season ... Bellflower went 7-3 last year but has struggled out of the gate in 2019. The Buccaneers have been outscored by a combined 103-28 in their four losses, including last week’s 24-14 setback against Santa Monica ... Friday’s contest is already the Breakers’ third road game this season, but they will play four of their next five games at home.
