Football: Edison goes 6-0, beats Oaks Christian in Air Strike finale
Huntington Beach Edison left little doubt that it's the king of seven-on-seven passing tournament football, winning the Air Strike tournament Saturday at Dana Hills by winning all six of its games and beating Westlake Village Oaks Christian twice.
The Chargers' receivers were the best as a group, led by Jeff Trojan, Dylan Leener and Wade Houston. Quarterback Matt Viles was consistent throughout.
Oaks Christian showed off a terrific sophomore receiver in Jordan Payton, who was making acrobatic catches all day. The Lions got tired after playing eight games.
Ventura St. Bonaventure and Rancho Santa Margarita were the other semifinalists. The surprise team of the day was Anaheim Servite, which lost to St. Bonaventure in a bracket semifinal. Servite played without its starting quarterback, Cody Fajardo. Sophomores Cody Pittman and Butch Pauu filled in.
See some of the day's action below.

There are a lot of us out here who could care less about HS football in the off season.

so then c.e why do you waste your time and comment on an off season hs football story if there are other things that you are more concerned about?

better yet j why do you waste your time posting that comment?
personally, I think the passing league tourneys are an interesting pheom. during the offseason, people care about them, but nobody pays their results any heed when it comes to the season itself.
p.s. This is the last comment I get to make as "oarsman"
