Archbishop Riordan and Serra will meet as undefeated teams in a de facto West Catholic Athletic League championship game next Friday.
That outcome was set in stone after Riordan routed Archbishop Mitty 37-7 on Saturday in San Francisco, running its record this season to 9-0 overall and 6-0 in WCAL play.
The Crusaders’ triumph now sets up a massive date with Serra, which improved to 6-3 overall and 6-0 in the WCAL on Saturday with its own rout, beating Bellarmine 39-7 in San Mateo.
Riordan and Serra will face off at Brady Family Field in San Mateo at 7 p.m. on Friday. If Riordan wins, it will be the Crusaders’ first WCAL title since 2000.
Serra last won the WCAL in 2023.
Against Mitty, Michael Mitchell Jr. threw three touchdown passes for Riordan and ran in another in the first half alone. Kyle Welch caught a 24-yard touchdown, Perrion Williams caught a 56-yard TD, breaking a tackle in the process, and Cynai Thomas snatched a 42-yard deep-ball score.
Mitchell added a 46-yard TD strike to Judge Nash in the second half. Backup quarterback Ethan Hauschild completed a 36-yard pass to Mitchell’s younger brother, Maxwell Mitchell, in the fourth quarter.
