The defending champion Wildcats football team travels to Chino Hills Friday to take on Ayala High School at 7 p.m.

The Bulldogs will be a tough test for the Wildcats, who have preyed on inferior Rio Hondo League competitors over the last two years, the Pasadena Star-News reports.

Ayala soundly beat Diamond Bar in its season opener last week, winning 46-17. The Bulldogs boast one of the best running backs in the San Gabriel Valley in Jordan Robinson, who scored three times against Diamond Bar, according to the Star-News.

Friday's game will offer a glimpse into the Wildcats' own runningback plans after star senior tailbacks Marquise Bias and De'Shawn Ramirez graduated last year. is expected to carry the load this year.

Joan, let me presume you generally understand how the government works, what it can, and can't do,…Read More and what freedom of the press really means. If so, theoretically, would you agree that if my post, is correct, would be very disturbing? Would you also agree that because of political leanings, most of the main stream media ignores, and/or twists the events I described to alter public opinion, and minimize it's impact? All of the statements in my original post are factual, out there in the public, in print, on T.V., and the internet. http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2013/05/irs-official-in-charge-during-tea-party-targeting-now-runs-health-care-office/ http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-01-30/fed-maintains-85-billion-pace-of-purchases-as-growth-pauses.html It is also called qe3 to infinity, If you want a deeper understanding of what lies ahead, then read this guy everyday.

Yep, B Ulm.... I was there all day. People were working really hard from early a.m. to clean up…Read More time. I noticed plenty of smiles and laughter, some quick no-nonsense problem solving, and some really rather creative ways to tackle the project at hand. It was smaller scale, there was no carnival (Did the Tilt a Whirl with dried puke REALLY mean that much to you folks?!) Look, the pancakes tasty, kids cute, dunk booth busy. These people did their best, and this is coming from me, an admitted Mr.grumpy pants. Danielle, since you seem keen on helping out per your post, and would volunteer if you knew where to go to do so, please sign up to be the dunkee next year. We'd love to have ya...I might be old but I have one helluva fast ball.

Wow - what an insulting, non-constructive post. You live in a city whose citizens banded together to…Read More tax themselves to save it Foothill wilderness, raised funds to renovate its schools and to build a state of the art library. The fact that one one single event in the year didn't go the way you wanted made you ashamed to be a Monrovian suggests you need to seriously rethink your priorities in life. As the first response said, quit complaining and get involved. Its not very hard in this city to find out how to volunteer if you had given it a slight effort. And the volunteer groups like the one that put the event together are starving for help since tearing people down is a lot more popular these days than putting in hard work. You are the one who should be ashamed.
