Edison vs. Los Alamitos
Analysis: This the Sunset League championship game. Los Alamitos has the star power advantage in this one. Malachi Nelson Malachi Nelson 6'3" | 195 lbs | QB Los Alamitos | 2023 State CA , Makai Lemon Makai Lemon 6'0" | 175 lbs | ATH Los Alamitos | 2023 State CA and DeAndre Moore DeAndre Moore 5'11" | 190 lbs | WR St. John Bosco | 2023 State CA . The Griffins have a lot of talent up front too with Adam Tomczyk Adam Tomczyk 6'4" | 265 lbs | DL Los Alamitos | 2022 State CA , David Main David Main 6'3" | 245 lbs | OL Los Alamitos | 2022 State CA , Cash Koepke Cash Koepke 6'4" | 300 lbs | OL Los Alamitos | 2022 State CA and Sinn Brennan Sinn Brennan 6'5" | 240 lbs | DL Los Alamitos | 2023 State CA . Edison has played a really tough schedule up to this point and they are finally healthy. Parker Awad has been hot at quarterback and Tyler Gioia Tyler Gioia 5'10" | 165 lbs | QB Edison | 2022 CA is back from injury. Nico Brown Nico Brown 6'0" | 180 lbs | ATH Edison | 2022 State CA is a good enough athlete to hang with the Los Al guys and Edison is a well-coached and disciplined, but I don’t know if they have the talent to win this one.
The pick: Los Alamitos

Santa Margarita vs. Servite
Analysis: Servite is a top 3 team in the state and is firing on all cylinders right now. Noah Fifita Noah Fifita 5'10" | 175 lbs | QB Servite | 2022 State CA is deadly accurate, Tetairoa McMillan Tetairoa McMillan 6'4" | 185 lbs | WR Servite | 2022 State CA is impossible to cover and Houston Thomas Houston Thomas 5'8" | 170 lbs | RB Portola | 2022 CA is a great running back. Santa Margarita is coming off a nice win against JSerra but they forced five turnovers and will not be able to do that against Servite. Jaxon Potter Jaxon Potter 6'4" | 180 lbs | QB Santa Margarita Catholic | 2023 State CA is coming into his own as a quarterback and they have some talent at the defensive skill positions and has Hero Kanu Hero Kanu 6'5" | 295 lbs | DL Santa Margarita Catholic | 2022 State CA up front. This one won’t be particularly competitive though.
The pick: Servite

Mission Viejo vs. Helix
Analysis: Mission Viejo is coming off a major win against Sierra Canyon. The Diablos defense, led by Jake Higgins, Trey Tolmaire and Daniel Dominguez were lights out and only allowed one good drive. Kadin Semonza Kadin Semonza 6'0" | 190 lbs | QB Mission Viejo | 2023 State CA wasn’t at his best but he made plays when he needed to and will take better care of the ball from now on. Jackson Holman Jackson Holman 6'3" | 200 lbs | WR Mission Viejo | 2023 State CA and Mikey Matthews Mikey Matthews 5'10" | 180 lbs | WR Mission Viejo | 2023 State CA are great receivers for the Diablos. Helix has a good running game with Christian Washington Christian Washington 5'11" | 200 lbs | RB Helix | 2022 State CA but Mission Viejo can stop the run. Xavier Van Xavier Van 6'1" | 175 lbs | WR Helix | 2022 State CA is athletic enough to hang with the Diablos but are the other Helix skill guys good enough?
The pick: Mission Viejo
Jackson Holman goes up and GETS IT👐@missionfootball adds on another TD after this strike from @kadinsemonza 😈#PrepZone I @CIFSS I @JacksonHolman4 pic.twitter.com/7FgUsU8RBT

Capistrano Valley vs. San Juan Hills
Analysis: This is a tough game in Orange County to pick. San Juan Hills got its first win against previously undefeated El Toro last week. Michael Tollefson has emerged as an elite freshman quarterback and freshman Weston Port Weston Port 6'2" | 225 lbs | LB San Juan Hills | 2025 State CA is the next big pass rushing prospect. Braden Pegan Braden Pegan 6'4" | 200 lbs | WR San Juan Hills | 2022 State CA is a threat for a 200 yard game at any time and Cole Monach Cole Monach 6'1" | 185 lbs | WR San Juan Hills | 2022 CA can get open whenever he wants. Capo Valley is coming off a bye and puts up numbers on offense with quarterback Trey Kukuk. Dane Benedix Dane Benedix 6'0" | 170 lbs | ATH Capistrano Valley | 2023 State CA is a playmaker and Owen Taylor can break tackles as well. Capo Valley should win the Sea View League but San Juan Hills just blewout the second best Sea View team.
The pick: San Juan Hills
Torrey Pines vs. El Camino
Analysis: Torrey Pines nearly upset Carlsbad last week and it took a walk-off touchdown to beat them. Remi Baere has become an efficient and effective quarterback for Torrey Pines. Easton Clements is a big play threat at running back and Wyatt Gardner is one of the more underrated players in San Diego. Kiah Reid is one of my favorite quarterbacks in San Diego and El Camino is always competitive with him at the helm. El Camino has good wins against Eastlake and St. Augustine, but is coming off a tough loss to La Costa Canyon.
The pick: Torrey Pines
