Here are teams 21-25:

25. Tustin (7-4): The Tillers’ stock has been dropping a bit in recent years, but they usually have enough talent to make that wing offense produce plenty of yardage, points and victories.
24. Valencia (7-5): Senior RB Wes Fletcher is poised for a spectacular ’07, but this year’s Tigers might be able to throw the ball, too, so this preseason ranking could be too low. 
23. Pacifica (8-4): Don’t forget that the Mariners were the only Empire League team to beat Kennedy last season, and they might be good enough beat the Irish and everyone else in league again.
22. Dana Hills (5-6): The Dolphins play in the South Coast League, in which Mission Viejo has monopolized first place, but they do have enough quality returnees to return to the playoffs.
21. Aliso Niguel (6-4): A mystery team; some coaches of rival South Coast League teams say the Wolverines will be very good, some have tabbed them to finish out of playoff contention.
