The schedule includes four nonleague matches in county waters: Los Amigos at Ocean View, Rancho Alamitos at La Quinta, Cypress at Buena Park and Whitney-Bolsa Grande at Garden Grove High.
One of the top matches of the opening week arrives Friday with Beckman playing host to Huntington Beach. Both schools reached the playoffs last season with the Oilers advancing to the CIF-SS Division 1 semifinals.
