After a strong win against California High School, the Dons look to keep their momentum as they face Whittier in their third league matchup. Last week, El Rancho took control early and never looked back, defeating Cal High 35–21 at Don Memorial Stadium. Don’s quarterback led the charge with an impressive performance, connecting with multiple receivers for key touchdowns.

The Whittier Cardinals come into this matchup looking to bounce back from their recent struggles and claim their first league win. Their defense will be tested against El Rancho’s balanced offense, which has found success both through the air and on the ground. Whittier will aim to slow down the Dons early and capitalize on turnovers to stay in the game.

El Rancho now stands at 4–3 overall and 1–1 in league play, hoping to move above .500 as the season heads into its final stretch. The Dons have shown steady improvement since their early losses and continue to build chemistry each week. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. at Don Memorial Stadium as El Rancho looks to defend home turf once again.
