Culver City battles first place Inglewood on Friday night at 7 p.m. at Culver City and Mira Costa travels to Palos Verdes at 3 p.m. on Friday. It's simple and complicated at the same time.

The USC Trojans routed the Rutgers Scarlet Knights at home last Friday night, winning 42-20, but this victory does little to alter the team's narrative for the season. While the scoreboard suggests a turning point, a closer look reveals that Rutgers, also coming off a three-game losing streak, was a team USC was expected to dominate. Although the win boosted team morale, it leaves lingering questions about the Trojans' ability to perform under pressure against tougher Big Ten competition. After...
Jim Harbaugh is tough. He was fiery and hard-nosed as a player and would do anything to motivate his team to win. Most things have stayed the same now that he roams and patrols the sideline as the head coach of the Chargers.

Over the past six months, Culver City residents again and again urged the Council to...
