It’s that time of the week again.
Joseph Dycus, Mike Lefkow and yours truly pick 16 games in Week 4. Some of them were not easy, just as it should be.
The tough ones on the menu include Pittsburg’s home showdown against Folsom, De La Salle’s visit to Cathedral-San Diego, Menlo-Atherton traveling to Del Oro-Loomis and Sacred Heart Prep playing host to Archbishop Riordan.
In this week’s video show, we get Dycus’ impressions of top-ranked Serra, which he saw rally Saturday from a nine-point, first-half deficit to beat Central Catholic-Modesto by double digits.
Lefkow offers his thoughts on De La Salle, which came within three points last week of making our guy look brilliant. Lefkow predicted that De La Salle could beat St. Francis by a running-clock score.
DLS won 35-3.
We also look ahead to the big game this week, the Folsom-Pittsburg matchup.
