Friday night’s quarterfinal round in the CIF-Southern Section Division 1 playoffs in Southern California featured four games with every matchup being a battle between teams in the High School Football America 100, powered by NFL Play Football.
Two of the four favorites, according to our proprietary algorithm, saw their 2022 seasons come to a close.
No. 39 Mission Viejo surprised many with its 31-28 defeat of No. 14 Corona Centennial. The Huskies had the ball with under three minutes to play, but cornerback Trey Tolmaire incepted a pass near midfield that ended CC’s hope of a tying or go ahead score.
Next-up for MV is No. 5 St. John Bosco in next week’s divisional semifinals. The Braves beat No. 86 Orange Lutheran Friday night 49-14.
The SJB/MV will feature to head coaches who know each other very well. Mission Viejo head coach Chad Johnson spent many years as a top assistant under Bosco head coach Jason Negro.
