Nov 16 Football Game Cancelled


Late this afternoon CIF informed us of the judge’s decision to uphold the forfeit versus Cathedral Catholic High School.  The game this evening at Cathedral Catholic has been cancelled and Serra High School will move on to the next level of the playoff brackets and will play next Friday, November 23rd versus the winner of the Ramona/West Hills High School game.  We apologize for any inconvenience and hope to see you next Friday supporting our Fighting Conquistadors as we continue in our attempt s to advance to the CIF Championship Finals.
