For as big as Salinas-Palma always is, could Alisal-Seaside be bigger this week?
I mean both teams are undefeated in league play and are a combined 13-1 overall.
Alisal's only loss was to Aptos, who is 4-0 in the Santa Cruz Coast Athletic League after beating Soquel, and has won six straight.
Seaside (47) and Alisal (86) have given up the least amount of points in the county this year.

Apparently, at the end of the season, the top team in the Pacific Divison will move up and the bottom team in the Gabilan Division will move down. Is that added incentive for the Trojans in this week's game with Seaside?
You know that more than one team can move up and go down every year, right? There's a very good chance this year that there could be a three team swing to the upper league, The only thing that is certain is that the first place team and last-place team of the upper switch spots. Everything beyond that comes down to the coaches voting at the end of the season. So I do not see an incentive for Alisal either way to win or lose because they are still better than the bottom three teams in the upper division, due to tremendous coaching by Coach Smith.
