10 players to watch in showdown between No. 1 Mater Dei and No. 3 St. John Bosco

A pair of schools that are perennial national championship contenders. Teams that produce four- and five-star talent each year. Rivals that are almost assured of a regular-season matchup and a Southern Section showdown at the end of the season. It’s time for Mater Dei and St. John Bosco.

The Mater Dei Monarchs, ranked No. 1 in the Super 25, are 3-0 entering the Friday matchup. The St. John Bosco Braves, at No. 3 in the nation, are 5-0.

With so many D1 prospects on the field, it can be overwhelming to find which players to key in on. Here are five players per team to watch. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Pacific Time.
