Mater Dei Monarchs (7-0)

The Monarchs tuned up for their showdown with St. John Bosco with a 41-17 win on the road against JSerra as Dash Beierly passed for three touchdowns and ran for another.

Mater Dei had the last laugh winning the Open Division title last season, but they may come into this game with some extra motivation after St. John Bosco shut them out 28-0 when the two met in their regular season matchup a year ago.

St. John Bosco (8-0)

Freshman quarterback Koa Malau’ulu turned in a solid performance to help the Braves get past the Friars.

Malau’ulu was 14 of 20 for 185 yards and three touchdowns as he settled into the starting job after the injury (and subsequent transfer to Kahuku in Hawaii) of junior Matai Fuiava.

He will have his hands full this week against the No. 1 team in the nation.
