LIBERTY (4-0 overall, 0-0 Northeast Valley League) is coming off back-to-back shutouts and has scored a combined 104 points over the last two weeks. Senior left-handed QB Navi Bruzon is a three-year starter and has contributed 18 touchdowns (10 pass, 8 rush) so far this season. Senior RB Jon Wilson rushed for 209 yards and three TDs in the season opener but hasn’t approached that level of production since.
HEAD COACH: Colin Thomas
ROSTER – QB: #7-Navi Bruson, Sr. (5-foot-10, 190 pounds); RB: #32-Jon Wilson, Sr. (5-10, 195); RB: #9-Dominic Lombardo, Jr. (5-10, 190); WR: #3-Chris McKivitz, Sr. (5-9, 155); WR/FS: #14-Braylon Gardner, Sr. (6-3, 215); DL: #52-Caden Branston, Jr. (6-2, 240); OLB: #10-Zane Tallman, Sr. (6-4, 200); CB: #4-Daveed Umoren, Sr. (5-10, 180); K: #23-Nathan Hawkins, Sr. (5-10, 165)

CENTENNIAL (2-2 overall, 0-0 Big West Upper) has played some of the best teams in the West and has its head back above water after a bye week. There might not be a ton to learn still but this opponent’s talent level is high and the reps are needed. Senior RB Cornell Hatcher went for 234 rushing yards and all four Centennial TDs in a 56-28 loss to Bishop Gorman two weeks ago.
HEAD COACH: Matt Logan
ROSTER – QB: #4-Husan Longsteet, Jr. (6-foot-2, 195 pounds); RB: #3-Cornell Hatcher, Sr. (6-foot, 205); WR: #8-Cory Butler, Jr. (5-10, 175); #5-Jason Harris, Sr. (5-9, 170); DL/LB: #7-Dez Polamalu, Sr. (6-2, 255); OLB: #12-Jonathan McKinley, Soph. (6-2, 220); CB: #1-Tayten Beyer, Sr. (5-11, 170); DB: #23-Cade Paterson, Jr. (6-1, 185); K: #49-Kenneth Junger, Sr. (5-9, 150)

THE DIFFERENCE:
Liberty is deep, beefy, disciplined and every bit Arizona’s No. 2-ranked team. That’s a recipe to beat Centennial.

THE FINAL SCORE (PROJECTED):
Liberty 42, Centennial 31
