Oceanside CA- Another full schedule of events to enjoy in Oceanside and North County this weekend.
There is a light schedule for high school football tonight with Oceanside, Carlsbad, La Costa Canyon, Vista, RBV, San Marcos, Mission Hills and Fallbrook having a bye week. Okay, maybe “light” was overstating the schedule a little bit however, there are a few games on the schedule. El Camino (3-1) and first year head coach, John Roberts look to keep their momentum going after a 47-7 drubbing of Fallbrook two weeks ago. The Wildcats host the San Pasqual Golden Eagles (3-1) at 7:00pm. Army-Navy looks for their first win as they travel to La Jolla Country Day (2-2).
