Oak Park (1-1) at Newbury Park (2-0)

Outlook: Get ready for threeto-seven yards and a cloud of FieldTurf. This matchup features two teams that want to pound the football on the ground.

NPHS junior tailback Cameron Roberson did great filling in for injured Chris Brown last week by rushing for 201 yards and finding pay dirt four times during the Panthers' 44-14 mauling of Rio Mesa.

Brown is expected to miss a few more games with a back injury.

One week after escaping with a close win over Grace Brethren, Oak Park was drilled by Royal, 41-7. More concerning for Oak Park should be the team's rush defense, which allowed 216 yards on the ground to Royal. Things won't get any easier this Friday.
