Santa Clarita Valley football had three expected winners in Foothill League football last week, Hart, Valencia and Saugus and Golden Valley had a bye, so the league standings didn’t change. However, Saugus is poised for a rise that only statistical twists seem to be preventing now. Additionally, Trinity won in the Cottonwood League.

Foothill League

Hart (6-2, 4-0)

The Hart Hawks defeated 0-7 Castaic on Oct. 10 by a score of 49-0. This keeps Hart at first place in league. Only Valancia seems to be in a position to challenge Hart for it.

Hart will play at 1-7 Canyon on Friday, Oct. 17 at 7 p.m. Canyon lost to Valencia 3-55 last week.

Canyon High School is located at 19300 Nadal St., Canyon Country, CA 91351. The stadium is on the east side of campus. Park in the student lot off Nadal.

Valencia (6-1, 3-0)

The Valencia Vikings beat 1-7 Canyon last week by a score of 55-3. Valencia is still statistically in second place, but Valencia and Hart will clash on Oct. 24 for what seems will be a championship-deciding battle.

Valencia will be the visitor against 3-4 Golden Valley on Thursday, Oct. 16 at 7 p.m. on the Canyon High field.

Saugus (6-2, 2-2)

The Saugus Centurions beat 1-6 West Ranch convincingly on Oct. 10, 54-6. However, at 2-2 in league, Saugus is still listed in fourth place.

Saugus has a bye this week and third-place Golden Valley plays second-place and 6-1 Valencia. You do the math.

Canyon (1-7, 1-3 )

With only one league win so far, the Canyon Cowboys still rank fifth in the Foothill League. Canyon lost to Valencia last week 3-55, and things probably won’t get better against 6-2 Hart this week. Hart took care of winless Castaic last week 49-0.

Canyon will host Hart on Friday, Oct. 17 at 7 p.m.

Castaic (0-7, 0-3)

The Castaic Coyotes lost to Hart last week 0-49. They are winless on the season, yet still listed in sixth place in league.

Castaic will clash with seventh place West Ranch (1-6) on Friday, Oct. 17 at 7 p.m., so the picture should become a bit clearer. Castaic will be the home team on the Valencia High field.

West Ranch (1-6, 0-3)

The West Ranch Wildcats lost to 6-2 Saugus last week 6-54. The Wildcats have a non-league win this season, but are 0-3 in league and ranked below 0-3-in-league Castaic.

The two teams meet this Friday, Oct. 17 at 7 p.m. on the Valencia High field, so a more obvious sorting is in order. Castaic will be the home team.
