Game of the Week
9/11: High School Football: Channel Islands at Santa Barbara: The Dons are rolling into their home opener Friday night after two lopsided road victories against winless teams (64-8 over Hueneme and 42-0 over Santa Maria). Channel Islands is also 2-0, and Santa Barbara coach JT Stone expects the Raiders from Oxnard to give the Dons a dose of hard-hitting football. Santa Barbara’s offense showed speed and finesse last week, as senior quarterback Brent Peus passed for 356 yards and five touchdowns. Ten of his 12 completions — averaging almost 30 yards — went to Mason Bigelow, Blake Kelley, and “Tic” Jellison. 7pm. Peabody Stadium, 700 E. Anapamu St. $3-$7. Call (805) 966-9101.
