Will four days be enough time for Valley Christian to recover for its battle on Saturday with unbeaten Palma?
And did Palma already implement a game plan for Valley Christian before Monday's result?
One player who will be fresh for the Warriors on Saturday will be tailback Bryon Marshall, who sat out Monday's win over Serra after being ejected the week before.
Marshall has rushed for nearly 1,400 yards this year, averaging 9.2 yards a carry. His speed will create problems for Palma.

Of course Palma has been preparing for VC and well as Serra in terms of basic game plan. They scout these teams out ealry as soon as they know they might face them. Also, I'm sure Palma was at the game. If palma defense steps up and they can keep the ball on offense with long and sustained drives, the Chieftains have a good shot at an upset. On defense, palma is tough up the middle, but they will need to get to the point of attack on the ends when VC runs their sweeps. They will also need to get pressure on the VC on play attaction pass-which they do alot, and also dbs will need to defend. Saint Francis held VC to 1 TD, so if Palma can step up-and with only a few days rest-Palma could pull the upset
