This week's games could also cause some shake-ups as #1 Servite faces undefeated and #10 Orange Lutheran.  #2 Santa Margarita also will face a challenge this week when it takes on Mater Dei, sitting at #16 with a 2-3 record.

Another Top 25 showdown will take place Friday night when #9 Poly takes-on #23 Lakewood.
