seaside dominance

You have to wonder if Seaside is in Monterey's head in football. That's eight straight wins. The Spartans didn't panic when falling behind 8-7 at halftime. Instead, Seaside stuck with its game plan by doing what Monterey usually does best, running the ball and grinding down the clock. Seaside simply wore down the Toreadores in the trenches.
Don't be surprised if Seaside is back in the CCS finals in three weeks. Seaside is playing as well as anyone with six straight wins.

If you're looking for an opponent in the CCS Small Division finals, how about a rematch with Pacific Grove. The Breakers weren't sharp in a win Friday over Carmel. In fact, if Ian Hesse doesn't run back a punt, the Padres might be hoisting a banner. That being said, the Breakers will likely get the No. 1 seed in Sunday's CCS pairings meeting.

And what happen to Salinas.? After a 3-0 start, it finished 1-6. Granted six of its opponent this year are going to the postseason. But a humbling loss Friday to Alisal leaves a lot of questions. All Salinas had to do was win to get into the playoffs.
