Some of the top teams from three counties will converge on the
football fields at Edison High School on Saturday to take part in a
passing league competition called Battle at the Beach.
Sixteen prep football teams will compete in the fourth annual event
that will run the entire day, beginning at 9 a.m.
"We have some great teams coming to our school, and there will be some
excellent competition," Edison Coach Dave White said. "We have some of
the county's top teams, as well as some top schools from San Diego and
Los Angeles counties, in this tournament."
