Senior Ohio State wide receiver commit Phillip Bell III and Mission Viejo head south Friday night to take on San Clemente.

Mission Viejo, ranked No. 11 in the national SBLive/SI Top 25, has won 15 straight entering the game.

The Diablos' last loss was over a year ago, and it came at the hands of San Clemente in a late-season upset.

Follow along here for live updates from the game, which is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. PT Friday, October 18.

1ST QUARTER

FUMBLE! San Clemente knocks it loose on Mission Viejo's first offensive possession and the Tritons recover in their own territory.

PREGAME

Bell pairs with four-star junior Vance Spafford to form a lethal receiving duo for Mission Viejo, and five-star Alabama CB commit Dijon Lee is the top-ranked senior recruit in the state.

But the Diablo stuffing the stat sheet most this season is a less heralded recruit.

That's 6-foot-4 senior pass rusher Jaden Williams, a San Diego State commit who's piled up 20 sacks this season, tops in California.

San Clemente counters with Matai Tagoa'i, a four-star senior linebacker committed to the USC Trojans, and three-star senior athlete Lee Fuimaono.
