Edison’s annual 7-on-7 passing tournament, which it calls the “Battle at the Beach,” is shaping up as one of the best high school football competitions of the summer.
Topping the list of teams entered in the July 12 event is defending state Open Division champion St. John Bosco, which is led by quarterback Josh Rosen, a UCLA commit.
The Orange County teams participating in the 20-team field are Edison, JSerra, La Habra, Los Alamitos, Mater Dei and Santa Margarita.
The first games start at 9 a.m. and the championship game will be at 1 p.m.
