The schedule originally had Cabrillo visiting Big Bear this week, but the wildfires forced a cancellation. Coach Shane Gonzales still found his Jaguars a game at Alta Loma. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m.

Cabrillo (1-1) picked up its first win of the season last week 49-32 against LA Jordan. Cabrillo sophomore quarterback Fernando Leanos found multiple receivers for touchdowns in the victory while senior Keyon Smith changed the game with key kickoff returns.

Alta Loma (1-2) has two close losses and a blow out win this season. Senior Luke Stansell is averaging 10 tackles a game for an Alta Loma defense that has only allowed 41 points in three games.
