                          View opened the first round of the CCS D IV playoffs
                          with a thrilling 36-35 victory over #5 seed San Mateo.
                          Although Spartan quarterback Sean Manson
                          completed 27 of 35 passes for 372 yards and three
                          touchdowns, it was his game winning two-point
                          conversion pass to Jeff Eckenhoff with
                          2:24 remaining in the game that enabled the Spartans
                          to move on to the semifinals. Mountain View's Cody
                          Holmes hauled in 14 passes for 237 yards and a
                          touchdown, while Eckenhoff caught six balls for 85
                          yards and a touchdown. San Lorenzo Valley, the state's
                          #5 ranked team in Division III, has allowed only 90
                          points this season (8.2 points per game), and the
                          quad-league area's most balanced attack is ranked #1
                          with 3850 total yards of offense. |  |  |

                        | The
                          Cowboys hope to do what Palma could not: stop WCAL
                          Back of the Year Jarred Belser. The standout
                          Division 1 prospect rushed for 161 yards and a
                          touchdown in the Bell's 17-7 CCS first round victory
                          over Palma. The Salinas defense should be up to the
                          task: the Cowboys have allowed a quad-league best 895
                          yards rushing (81 Y.P.G.) this season, and only 7.8
                          points per game. Bellarmine
                          quarterback Paul Gonzales (66 of 119
                          passes for 1,061 yards and 9 touchdowns in the regular
                          season) demonstrated a lot of poise in the pocket,
                          completing some very long 3rd down passes last week to
                          keep drives alive. A Salinas victory would put the
                          defending CCS D II champions into their first CCS
                          Division I title game since 1979. |  |  |  |  |  |
