1ST QUARTER

FIELD GOAL MATER DEI! Steady diet of Oregon Ducks commit Jordon Davison on that drive on the ground and through the air. Joseph Gutierrez hits a 23-yard field goal to make it 11-0 Mater Dei with 4:48 left.

Quick three-and-out for Bosco and the Mater Dei defense is looking hungry early. Monarchs take over on their own 46 with 10:08 left, leading 8-0.

TOUCHDOWN MATER DEI! Monarchs get tricky on the first play, scoring on a flea flicker and then a two-point conversion to make it 8-0 early. Washington commit Ashton Beierly hit four-star junior Kayden Dixon-Wyatt for the 35-yard TD.

FUMBLE! Bosco gets a first down but coughs it up, and Daryus Dixson recovers and returns it to the Bosco 35.

The game of the year in high school football is underway! Mater Dei kicks to St. John Bosco, which will start on its own 20 after a touchback.

PREGAME

We're almost there:

As has been the case at least five other times since 2018, the 2024 regular-season version features the No. 1 versus No. 2 nationally ranked teams.

Freshman Braves QB Koa Malau'ulu will join a shortlist of underclassmen who have started under center in the Mater Dei-St. John Bosco rivalry over the last three decades.

Mater Dei counters with a superstar freshman of its own in 6-foot-1 safety Ace Leutele.

These two teams' regular-season matchup is usually followed by a rematch in the Division 1 finals, but they may meet only once in 2024; here's why.
