SANTA ANA, Calif. — For the second consecutive year and the sixth time in seven seasons, Mater Dei (11-1) and St. John Bosco (11-1) will battle in the CIF Southern Section Division 1 Championship.

This year’s match-up, scheduled for Friday at 7 p.m. at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, comes with added stakes for both programs.

The Monarchs are looking to snap a two-game losing streak to the Braves, which includes a 28-0 shutout in Trinity League play this season.

On the other hand, St. John Bosco is looking to win their fifth section title under head coach Jason Negro and repeat for the first time in program history.
