Carson is seeded No. 1 for City Section Open Division football playoffs


Carson High, the 11-time City Section champion, was the No. 1 seed for the City Section Open Division playoffs under first-year coach William Lowe.
Birmingham, which has a 54-game winning streak against City Section opponents, was the No. 2 seed. San Pedro is No. 3 and undefeated Palisades is No. 4.
Carson will host No. 8 seed King/Drew on Nov. 14. Palisades is the home team against No. 5 Garfield, while San Pedro will host No. 6 Crenshaw and Birmingham will host No. 7 Kennedy.
There was no City Open Division champion last season after Narbonne had to relinquish the title for rule violations.
Venice is the No. 1 seed in Division I. Cleveland is No. 1 in Division II and Santee is the No. 1 seed in Division III.
In women’s flag football, San Pedro received the No. 1 seed in the open division. Games begin Friday, with San Pedro hosting No. 8 Verdugo Hills; No. 4 Marshall is at No. 5 Banning; No. 6 Wilson visits No. 3 Panorama; and No. 7 Narbonne will travel to No. 2 Eagle Rock.
