Lakewood Mayfair 47, Canyon 7--Senior running back Michael Williams rushed 12 times for 134 yards before he and the entire first string left the game midway through the third quarter for host Mayfair. "Everybody played well. Things really came together tonight," said Mayfair quarterback Drew Gonzalez, who completed nine of 14 passes for 94 yards. "Physically, we're more solid than Canyon and that gave us a big advantage."

The Indianapolis Colts, a surprise team for the wrong reasons, are 3-2 going into Sunday's game at Seattle. At issue: Peyton Manning threw an uncharacteristic three interceptions in a loss to New England, and Edgerrin James--who led the NFL in rushing last season--ranks eighth with 439 yards. James has only one 100-yard game. Manning thinks the Colts need to regain their balanced attack so teams have to be ready for them to run on any down.

MATTHIAS HIGH Cathedral runs difficult-to-defend double-wing and spread offenses, but the Phantoms have struggled at quarterback and are still reeling from the loss of Jabari Jefferson, a 1,000-yard rusher who broke a leg in the first round. Quarterbacks Robby Hobbs and Jason Taylor will split time for Lutheran, and they will both look for receiver Jon Talmage.

7:30 TONIGHT BREA OLINDA HIGH For years, this has been the showdown that decided the Olympic League title. Although Orange Lutheran has been beset with injuries, including sophomore quarterback Casey Whieldon's broken collarbone, it still should be a pivotal game. Valley Christian, ranked second in Southern Section Division XI, leads the series, 14-5, but eighth-ranked Orange Lutheran has won four of the last six games, including a 35-20 victory last season.

Their running back quit, their coach resigned and their season is a shambles.

And so the Dolphins staged a stunning comeback Monday night. With Tom Brady's ugly interception providing an opening, Miami scored two touchdowns in the final 2 minutes 7 seconds to beat the Patriots, 29-28. Much-maligned A.J.
