People, listen up.

The Southwest Yosemite League championship is the North High football team's to lose.

Did you catch that? Not Centennial. Not Stockdale. Not West.

North. All by itself atop the SWYL and on the verge of winning its first league title since 1986, when the Stars won the old South Yosemite League.

North's 34-19 defeat of South on Friday was, as coach Mark Camps told me, as complete a victory as his team has notched this season. "Very complete game," he said. "Great effort by our kids. We’re one step closer to where we want to be.”

One step closer to a league title that would be a longtime coming.

The Stars' performance couldn't have come at a better time, as they will gear up this week for, essentially, a league championship game with Stockdale. Oh by the way, the Mustangs were upset by Ridgeview 30-15 last night, putting the Stars in control of their own fate.

Ridgeview ran all over Stockdale for 330 yards in the win. Have we mentioned that's what North does best?

Whether its Julian Dean-Johnson, Seth Vlach, Ruben Suarez, Joe Clevenger, or Juan Rodriguez, North's ground attack is tough to stop. The Stars racked up 353 yards on the ground against South, and much of the same could happen next week against Stockdale.

If it does, well, you can figure what the end result would be.
