Servite (10-1) vs. El Toro (6-5)
7:30 P.M. FRIDAY
TRABUCO HILLS HIGH SCHOOL
This is a rematch of the 1995 section final. El Toro, a 27-17 winner last year, held El Dorado to one yard rushing and 67 passing in a 37-2 first-round victory over El Dorado. The Chargers won’t do that against top-seeded Servite, which is more physical and coming off a 50-7 victory over Western. Greg Cicero’s 26 touchdown passes matches the county high; Daniel Rubalcava (759 yards rushing, 12 TDs) provides some balance in an offense whose no-huddle attack wears teams down. El Toro’s Murle Sango is the game’s most dangerous player, but the Chargers’ line play will probably determine the outcome.
