The Gardena Serra Cavaliers host the Santa Monica Vikings Friday night in a Southern Section quarterfinal matchup from the Western division. Both teams enter the contest on a roll, having dominated their first round opponents.

Santa Monica is led by standout receiver and USC commit Sebastian Larue, but the Vikings also possess an effective run game that should present a challenge to the stout Serra defense.

The Gardena Serra Cavaliers took care of business Thursday night, dominating league foe St. Francis 42-6 behind a stellar defensive performance and three touchdowns from Malik Roberson.

With playmaker Taz Bateman lost for the season with a broken ankle, it was incumbent upon others to step their game up. On this night, it was Malik Roberson that was up to the challenge.

Trailing 3-0, the Cavaliers took the lead on a rushing touchdown by Roberson. The Serra defense held the St. Francis offense out of the end zone all night, yielding only two long field goals. Serra led 14-6 at halftime.

Adoree' Jackson (DB/2014) played well for Gardena Serra in Friday night's loss to nationally ranked Narbonne HS. Jackson's Cavaliers were unable to overcome several mistakes on the offensive side of the ball, and fell to the Gauchos 22-9.

Jackson was spotted on the field wearing a pair of USC Trojans football gloves that he used to snatch several Jalen Greene (QB/2014) passes. Adoree' made contributions for the Cavaliers on offense, defense and special teams. "The Trojans are a good team, they stick out to me a lot," Jackson told College Level Athletes after the game.

The Narbonne Gauchos defeated the Gardena Serra Cavaliers 22-9 in a highly anticipated inter-sectional clash between undefeated teams. The high powered Narbonne offense was for the most part held in check by the stout Serra defense.

Standout senior quarterback Troy Williams and the Gauchos struck first with a 24-yard touchdown pass to Jon’tae Robeson. University of Washington head coach Steve Sarkisian was on the sidelines to see his prized recruit in action.

This week we take on Banning High School who is known for a history of great teams in the past. They used to be a perennial powerhouse back then, but first we don't plan on taking them lightly or underestimating what they are capable of.

Simply, we plan to come out and EXECUTE on both sides of the ball. If we do execute we will get what we want, which is to win the ball game.

Today's game came up to the fourth quarter. Coach told us to come into this game and compete. I feel like we didn't come into the game as ready and focused as the other games we've played. We underestimated them from the beginning of the first half.

The score settled at a 20 to 20 tie as we went to the locker room. In the locker room we talked about making up for the mistakes we made in the first half and that when we come out the second half we have to focus and play "Serra Football."

So, this week we take on Mira Costa High School. We've all been working hard this week, mostly on the mental stuff. Last week was a big win for us versus a power house like Long Beach Poly and the week before that when we took on Notre Dame. Two games isn't what we want. I'm sure there are plenty of people out there expecting us to win CIF and State this year, but as of right now we are taking each game one at a time.
