STUDENT SECTION BATTLE OF THE WEEK 

Corona del Mar Kings Krew of Newport Beach at Newport Harbor Tarpit of Newport Beach, Friday, 7pm

This is for the Battle of the Bay. Both student sections haven’t been as electric as they have in the past, but they’ll make up for it this Friday. Third place is on the line in the Sunset League. We expect alot of noise in this one.

ARIZONA STUDENT SECTION BATTLES OF THE WEEK

Pinnacle Crazies of Phoenix at Brophy Prep Stampede Phoenix, Friday, 7pm

When it comes to word of mouth, both student sections were considered the best and they proved it on social media! Both Student Sections can rock it and have amazing school spirit!

Liberty Uproar of Peoria at Chaparral Birdcage of Scottsdale, Friday, 7pm

The Birdcage has looked like a solid contender for the Arizona Football Student Section of the Year. They show off their school spirit quite well, but so has the Uproar. This has great potential in being a great Student Section battle!

Horizon Dawgpound of Scottsdale at Saguaro Zoo of Scottsdale, Friday, 7pm

The Zoo has been great and shows off their school spirit on the daily. It is also something the Dawgpound has done. Hoping they travel and battle with the Zoo!

Verrado Pit of Buckeye at Millennium Tiger Cage of Goodyear, Friday, 7pm

The Pit has been showing off their Student Section as of late and Millennium was showing off their Student Section as well. Hoping we are a clash of Student Sections on Friday.

Corona del Sol Tribe of Tempe at Williams Field Red Rage of Gilbert, Friday, 7pm

The Tribe is another Student Section that is battling for the Arizona Student Section of the Year. Solid Student Section that loves to show off their school spirit. Red Rage has done the same, but as often as the Tribe. Hoping to see another Student Section battle.

NORTHERN CALIFORNIA STUDENT SECTION BATTLES OF THE WEEK 

Oak Ridge OZone of El Dorado Hills at Del Oro Blackhole of Loomis, Friday, 7pm

The Blackhole has looked strong this season and are contenders for the top spot for the NorCal Student Section of the Year. The O-Zone  has been phenomenal this season as well. If they travel, then this should be a rowdy one!

Vista del Lago Nest of Folsom at Christian Brothers of Sacramento, Friday, 7pm

The Nest is probably the best student section in NorCal that hasn’t won the weekly award! It would help if they travels to rattle Christian Brothers. Either way, Christian Brothers will be there. Hoping to see them on social media. 

Franklin of Elk Grove vs. Elk Grove Herd at Cosumnes Oaks of Elk Grove, Friday, 7:15pm

This city rivalry will be rocking with two great student sections. I’ve seen and heard great things from both student sections and I expect he stands to be rocking on Friday!

Bakersfield at Frontier of Bakersfield, Friday, 7:30pm

Here’s another rivalry on Friday. Frontier looks like the better student section, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Bakersfield gets the upper hand. 

Bellarmine of San Jose vs. St. Francis of Mountain View at San Jose City College, Friday, 7pm

Two rowdy student sections in the San Jose area. Hoping to see it on social media. 

 EMPIRE STUDENT SECTION BATTLES OF THE WEEK 

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA STUDENT SECTION BATTLES OF THE WEEK

INLAND EMPIRE STUDENT SECTION BATTLES OF THE WEEK

Murrieta Valley Red Zone at Vista Murrieta Bronco Bleacher Creatures, Friday, 7pm

Two of the best student sections will battle for the top spot in the Inland Empire. Perhaps this will decide who will finish number one in the IE! Oh, I hope we see it on social media! This will get crazy!

Etiwanda Red Zone at Rancho Cucamonga Rooters, Friday, 7pm

Etiwanda has looked more rowdy than Rancho Cucamonga, but that might be because they work social media in a much more consistent basis! Will that change on Friday? Will the Red Zone try to finish as the best in the IE? I guess we’ll find out.

Great Oak Red Wave of Temecula at Chaparral Green Fanatics of Temecula, Friday, 7pm

Slowly starting to notice the Red Wave. Hoping to see more then so they can secure a Top 5 finish. Chaparral is starting to slip when it comes to social media and showing off their student section. Hoping to see both student sections from my phone.

Rancho Verde Red Zone of Moreno Valley, CA) at Heritage Patriot Pit of Menifee, Friday, 7pm

Haven’t seen much from both student sections, but Red Zone and the Pit used to rock it on social media. Amazing student sections. It might be time to start showing it off!

Patriot Pit of Jurupa Valley at Ramona Rowdy Rams of Riverside, Friday, 7pm

The Rowdy Rams haven’t shown off their student section as much as they used to, but we know they’re there. Patriot has popped up here and there. League game means you hope to see some crazy and loud student sections from these twos

LOS ANGELES STUDENT SECTION BATTLES OF THE WEEK 

West Ranch Pack of Valencia vs. Saugus Blue Crew at College of Canyons of Santa Clarita, Friday, 7pm

This game will most likely decide the Foothill League title. I’m sure both student sections will be ready. However, I haven’t seen much from both student sections at all this season. The Pack has always been a rowdy group and the Blue Crew was always supportive during the tough Centurion years. Hoping we see these two student sections on social media. 

Loyola of Los Angeles at St. Francis Dungeon of La Canada, Friday, 7pm

Both student sections are amazing…well, I think they are. We haven’t seen anything on social media. I’ve seen the Dungeon at St. Francis in 2017, but things can change in four years. Might be time to see if they’re still rowdy. Loyola needs to start showing off their student section! 

Chaminade Cage of West Hills at Bishop Amat Dawgpound of La Puente, Friday, 7pm

LA traffic might be tough for the Cage, which is good news for the Dawgpound as Bishop Amat is battling for the Los Angeles Student Section of the Year title. Dawgpound has been the model student section when it comes to consistency. Social media is on point and they have shown off a rowdy group! 

Northview of Covina at San Dimas, Friday, 7pm

San Dimas got off to a great start when it came to showing off their student section, but they’ve been quiet since. Not as quiet as Northview, who used to show off their student section. Time to bring that back and I’m talking to both student section. Show off your school spirit! 

Hart Tribe of Newhall at Canyon Green Machine of Canyon Country, Friday, 7pm

Canyon can shake things up in the bottom half of the Foothill League with a win here. The Tribe will need to show up because the Green Machine wants to see the Cowboys get the win! Pride is on the line in this one. Also, share it with all of us!

ORANGE COUNTY STUDENT SECTION BATTLES OF THE WEEK 

Foothill Dungeon of Santa Ana vs. Villa Park Black Pack at El Modena of Orange, Friday, 7pm

The Dungeon has been fantastic this season! They are looking like a Top 10 Student Section in Orange County. Much improved Student Section this year. The Black Pack is battling to finish on top as the best Student Section in Orange County. They travel and show off their Student Section every week. They’ll be ready on Friday for this rivalry game.

Trabuco Hills Stampede of Mission Viejo at Capistrano Valley of Mission Viejo, Friday, 7pm

This is a huge Sea View League matchup and we expect the Stampede to rock it in the visiting stands. Hopefully they wont get blinded by the famous powder toss that the Cage does! This will be a good one on Friday.

Fountain Valley Kingdom vs. Edison MESS of Huntington Beach at Orange Coast College of Costa Mesa, Friday, 7pm

This one is for The Bell! The Kingdom will be there to support their Barons. It will be a tough one as the Chargers are having another fantastic football season and the MESS will be celebrating another win for the Bell, but no matter what, the Kingdom loves their Barons!

Irvine Frontier at Portola Dawgpound of Irvine, Friday, 7pm

The Frontier one weakness is their road show, but that shouldn’t be a problem going to nearby Portola to rattle the Dawgpound. The Dawgpound on the other hand hasn’t been seen that much. This was a very great student section in 2019. Hope we see them more on Friday.

Servite Asylum of Anaheim vs. Mater Dei Den of Santa Ana at Santa Ana Stadium, Saturday, 8pm

This is going to be such a good one. I just have to be out of town that night! The game will overhype the student sections, but that won’t stop the Asylum or the Den. This is going to be a crazy one! The Asylum is looking for another Top 5 finish while the Den wants more cred than usual. Would help if they tagged us, just saying. 

SAN DIEGO STUDENT SECTION BATTLES OF THE WEEK 

La Costa Canyon Stampede of Carlsbad at Carlsbad Loud Crowd, Friday, 7pm

City rivalry with two amazing student sections. Loud Crowd has been fantastic, but that is expected of them every year. The Stampede has improved a lot and have been in the talks for San Diego Football Student Section of the Year. This is going to be a good one.

Grossmont Foothillers of El Cajon at Helix Dawghouse of La Mesa, Friday, 7pm

Rivalry game here and whole Helix is the superior football team, I’d have to give the edge to the Grossmont Student Section. They’ve gotten so much better this season. Showing off your school spirit on social media takes you a very long way and that’s the case for Grossmont.

Poway Titan Terrors at Mt. Carmel Red Zone of San Diego, Friday, 7pm

Will the Titan Terrors travel? I’m sure we’ll find out as they worked a pretty good social media game. If they do travel, be ready for the Red Sea as they are looking for the top spot in the San Diego Football Student Section Rankings next month! 

San Marcos Blue Crew at Torrey Pines Cardinal CHAOS of San Diego, Friday, 7pm

The Blue Crew has been amazing, but not as amazing has 2019! That was a fun group! Let’s see if they can travel and take over Torrey Pines. I’m sure the Cardinal CHAOS will have a say of course, but we haven’t much of them this season. I need more Chaos in my life…well not really, but you get it.

Mira Mesa of San Diego at Scripps Ranch Cage of San Diego, Friday, 7pm

Scripps Ranch doesn’t really do much of the social media game, but we’ve seen their student section in the past and it’s a home game, so we expect them to be there. Social media is your friend in this case. Share your school spirit! Mira Mesa, if you’re student section travels, share it on social media!

NEVADA STUDENT SECTION BATTLES OF THE WEEK

Damonte Ranch Blue Hole of Reno at Bishop Manogue Goldmine of Reno, Friday, 7pm

Blue Hole has been on a roll this fall. They have a say for the top spot for the Nevada Student Section of the Year. Goldmine has been quiet on social media these last few weeks. It might be time to start finishing string for a good ranking.

Bishop Gorman G-Block of Las Vegas at Foothill of Henderson, Friday, 7pm

G-Block is a front runner for the Nevada Football Student Section of the Year, but how is there road show? More importantly, how is Foothill Student Section? We haven’t seen much from them. I guess we’ll find our answers on Friday.

Liberty Patriot Pit of Henderson at Desert Pines of Las Vegas, Friday, 6pm

While I did say that Bishop Gorman is the front runner for the Nevada Student Section of the Year, Liberty Patriot Pit is right behind them and still have a strong say. Showing for a road game could help greatly. Be ready for Desert Pines Student Section though. 

Desert Oasis of Las Vegas at Silverado of Las Vegas, Friday, 7pm

Desert Oasis won the Nevada Student Section of the Week title last week, so I’m hoping to see more of them this Friday. Road game is a big task and Silverado will look to be in control.

Las Vegas at Del Sol of Las Vegas, Friday, 7pm

Las Vegas is starting to show up on social media, but not as much as Del Sol. I find Del Sol to be more rowdy, but maybe Las Vegas will prove me wrong. 

OREGON STUDENT SECTION OF THE WEEK BATTLES

West Linn at Lake Oswego Laker Navy, Thursday, 7pm

I’m wondering if both student sections are going to show up on a Thursday night. They have both been amazing this year. Hoping they show off on a school night.

Beaverton at Sunset of Portland, Friday, 7pm

Both student sections are up for the top spot for the Oregon Student Section of the Year. Hoping they show off and prove who is number one on social media!

Lakeridge of Lake Oswego at Tigard Tiger Army, Friday, 7pm

Lakeridge won the first ever Oregon Student Section of the Week. They’ve stayed the course, but I feel like Tigard Tiger Army has caught up! Both student sections are amazing! We’ll see which student section is better by years end.

Sherwood at Glencoe of Hillsboro, Friday, 7pm

Sherwood won the Student Section of the Week while Glencoe has been a finalists. Will Glencoe I ally take the weekly title? Will Sherwood finish strong and get a high ranking for the Oregon Fall Student Section Rankings? We shall see.

West Salem at Bend, Friday, 7pm

Haven’t seen much from these two student sections compared to the eight mentioned above. I’ve seen West Salem more than Bend, but will they travel on Friday? Will Bend show off their school spirit?

WASHINGTON STUDENT SECTION OF THE WEEK BATTLES

Woodinville at Inglemoor of Kenmore, Friday, 7pm

These two student sections were up for the Washington Student Section of the Week. Solid student sections and we hope their social media game is on point again! 

Kamiak of Mukilteo at Lake Stevens Viking Castle, Friday, 7pm

Lake Stevens has won the Washington Student Section of the Week where Kamiakin has had a couple of nominations. Both student sections are solid in showing off their school spirit! Hoping nothing is different on Friday.

Kennewick at Chiawana Hawk Squad of Pasco, Friday, 7pm

Both student sections have been nominated for the Student Section of the Week. They show off their student sections enough to get noticed. Keep it up guys! 

Redmond of at Mount Si of Snoqualmie, Friday, 7pm

We haven’t seen much of Redmond. The same is kind of said for Mount Si, but we definitely know they can be rowdy as they have in the past. Mount Si is solid, but they need to show off their school spirit more!

Garfield of Seattle at O’Dea of Seattle, Friday, 7pm

O’Dea won the Student Section of the Week title last week and they’ll look to keep the school spirit going. We haven’t seen much of them, but it’s more than Garfield has shown. However, this is our first year covering student sections in Washington, so it will take time.
