Temecula – The Chaparral Pumas will face off against the Mission Viejo Diablos in a highly anticipated high school football matchup at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. This game is expected to be competitive as both teams come off notable experiences from their recent performances.

Chaparral is looking to extend their impressive streak of scoring more points in each match for three consecutive games. The Pumas recently celebrated a season-high accomplishment by scoring 64 points in an overwhelming victory against Great Oak, ending that match with a score of 64-14. This win marked Chaparral’s eighth consecutive victory over Great Oak, showcasing the Pumas’ dominance in this specific matchup.

In their recent game against Great Oak, Chaparral’s offense demonstrated remarkable efficiency, led by quarterback Dane Weber. Weber completed 80% of his passes, throwing for 317 yards and three touchdowns. The ground game significantly contributed to this victory as well, with running back Trevor Schneider rushing for 200 yards and one touchdown on just 14 carries, resulting in an impressive average of 115 rushing yards per game. Another vital contributor to the scoring was Talen Ritayik, who added 81 rushing yards and one touchdown to the team’s total. The Pumas finished the game with a season-high total of 310 rushing yards.

Chaparral’s defense also played a crucial role in their recent success, tallying five sacks during the match. Jackson Toth was particularly effective, leading the team with two sacks while establishing a season-high with six total tackles. Defensive player Kameron Payne added to this effort with 1.5 sacks and ten total tackles, including three tackles for loss.

Conversely, the Mission Viejo Diablos, ranked highly in the state, recently faced a setback with their first loss of the season, succumbing to McCallie with a score of 25-14. This defeat adjusted Mission Viejo’s record to 4-1 for the season. Despite this loss, key players remain significant threats, including senior Luke Fahey, who rushed for 103 yards, and teammate Davonte Curtis who rushed for 53 yards, contributing with two touchdowns.

This upcoming game will be critical for Chaparral, as they hold a 2-2 record for the season, while Mission Viejo looks to rebound from their recent defeat. Notably, Chaparral has been averagely generating 519 total yards per game on offense this season, while the Diablos have averaged 363 total yards. This offensive edge could play a vital role in determining the outcome.

In addition, history may weigh on Chaparral, as the last time they faced Mission Viejo, they suffered a substantial loss of 51-10 in September 2024. With the stakes high, the Pumas now aim to turn the tables in this match.
