The Quote: "I think were playing better than we have all season right now," senior Pat Berrigan said. "We're pretty pumped and we'll take it into Saturday."

 Who's Next? Foothill will play at Amador Valley in the NCS finals on Saturday at 7 p.m.

The Bottom Line: The Falcons avenged its earlier loss to De La Salle and gets a chance to do the same against rival Amador on Saturday. In the regular-season finale, the Falcons blew a 2-0 lead against the Dons, which cost the team the East Bay Athletic League title. Foothill is the defending NCS champion and has won three of the last four titles.
