Football: Crespi-Notre Dame game could decide Division 2 playoff berth

It has not been the best of seasons for Crespi (2-6, 0-4) or Sherman Oaks Notre Dame (3-5, 0-4), but a Southern Section Division 2 at-large berth could be decided on Friday night when the two San Fernando Valley rivals meet in a Mission League game at Notre Dame.

Both schools have strong strength of schedule criteria when it comes to competing for an at-large berth in Division 2.

Regardless, the game should fit in with the clashes of the past, many of which have ended with the game being decided in the final seconds (see above video).

Here’s link to Notre Dame’s 2009 win on a field goal.

For Notre Dame, Arizona commit Kylan Wilborn has been having a strong season. He has scored 11 touchdowns as a running back and also performed well at linebacker. Khalid Taylor has been a standout defensive back.

Crespi has struggled trying to find a big-play performer on offense. When healthy, Cameron Coleman has been a key contributor on defense and offense.
