Atascadero 10 Templeton 7
Another game with zero breathing room between these two cross-town rivals. Two touchdowns in the first quarter was the most action this game saw except for the very last play of the game. Armand Masatagni’s 30 yard field goal with 1.3 seconds left on the clock sealed the win for the Greyhounds. Atascadero now has a seven game win streak on the road dating back to last season.
Nipomo 28 Arroyo Grande 41

Central Valley Christian 35 Mission Prep 14
Two huge penalties that would've resulted in much needed turnovers for the Royals were negated by penalties as the offense stalled for much of the game.
The series was split 1-1 heading heading into this game but now have to readjust and get ready for league play.
Buchanan 33 Paso Robles 13
The Buchanan Bears showed just exactly why they’re undefeated this season with another dominating performance on the road. Both Buchanan and Paso suffered from turnovers, however, the Bears were the ones to capitalize on them early and maintain their lead. If the Bearcat offense is able to score early with their tough defense, they’ll put up a good fight against Arroyo Grande next week.
St. Joseph 30 Shafter 28
A safety with 1:18 left in the game lifted the Knights to their first win of the season. After going up 21-7 in the first half, Shafter stormed back. However, a great defensive play made late in the game allowed for St. Joseph to enter Mountain League play with momentum.
Santa Ynez 38 Santa Maria 14
Jude Pritchard did everything for the Pirates in the spooky fall fog on the road. The defense held tough as well holding the Saints to only 14 points.
