St. John's Prep 42, Catholic Memorial 29 - Dyllan Gonzalez' 8-yard touchdown run put the Prep on top and St. John's went on to beat the visiting Knights.

St. Mary's 22, Austin Prep 20 - The Spartans stopped a last-second conversion attempt by host Austin Prep and improved to 7-1. Todd Collier ran for 180 yards in the win.
