What you need to know about St. John Bosco

The Braves got a total team effort on offense in their last meeting with Orange Lutheran, and finished the game with 430 yards. Senior wide receiver and Louisville commit Jahlil McClain needed just three catches to ring up the Lancers for 82 yards and two touchdowns.

Bosco finished the game with five sacks, including one from Matayo Uiagalelei, who is a composite five-star prospect in the 247Sports 2023 national recruiting rankings. Although he finished with just 5.5 sacks during the regular season, his presence and physicality is something opponents have had to game plan against all year.

What you need to know about Orange Lutheran

As the score might indicate from their previous game, Orange Lutheran wasn't able to get much traction on either side of the ball in their last matchup against Bosco. Part of that has to do with the youth the Lancers are rolling with in key positions this year. Sophomore quarterback TJ Lateef threw for just 54 yards against the Braves, but in the Lancers' first playoff game last week against Edison (Huntington Beach, CA), he finished with 378 passing yards and three touchdowns.

Senior wide receiver Jackson Weng came away with the majority of those yards last week, and had six receptions for 163 yards and two touchdowns. Sophomore Tyler Hennessy was the next most productive receiver, with five catches for 84 yards and a score. Against Bosco, Khanrad Hernandez was Lateef's top target, and he finished with six grabs for 40 yards and the lone touchdown in the game. Follow Orange Lutheran's game here.
