Exciting Announcement from Bellflower: St. John Bosco Football Ramps Up for 2025!

In Bellflower, excitement is in the air as the St. John Bosco Varsity Football team prepares for an action-packed 2025 season. Renowned coach Jason Negro has crafted a challenging national schedule that promises to test the team’s mettle against some formidable opponents from across the country.

All Aboard for a National Adventure

This upcoming season, the Braves will be hitting the road like never before, traveling to sunny Florida and preparing to host electrifying teams from Texas, Maryland, and Hawaii! This marks a significant increase from last year when St. John Bosco only faced two out-of-state teams: Chaminade-Madonna from Florida and Eastwood from Texas. With the number of out-of-state competitors doubling, the thrill is palpable!

A Solid Finish Last Season

Last year’s version of the Braves wrapped up the season with a solid 9-1 record. Their lone defeat came from the hands of the national champions, Mater Dei, during that unforgettable Week 9 showdown. The season also saw them narrowly lose to Mater Dei again in the CIF Southern Section Division 1 final, finishing off with an impressive score of 31-24. Talk about high stakes!

Rivalry Resumes!

Mark your calendars, folks! The much-anticipated rivalry match-up against Mater Dei is set for October 31, right on St. John Bosco’s turf. It’s shaping up to be a nail-biter, especially with fans eager for a rematch and the teams both preparing to bring their A-game!

Younger, Stronger, and Ready to Roll

One of the most exciting aspects of the upcoming season is that St. John Bosco is bringing back many of its top performers, which is a treat for fans! Young stars like quarterback Koa Malauulu from the class of 2028 and standout wide receiver Madden Williams from the class of 2026 are expected to shine and lead the team. A younger roster might spell trouble for the opposition!

Challenging Schedule Ahead

The 2025 regular season doesn’t skimp on challenges either. St. John Bosco will face a lineup featuring a whopping eight opponents who made the cut in last season’s High School Football America 300 national rankings. The excitement will kick off when the Braves travel to Florida to take on Manatee, which was ranked No. 120 last year. Will they be ready for the heat?

Home Sweet Home

After their Florida opener, the Braves will return to their home field for four consecutive home games. Here’s what fans can look forward to:

  • August 29: vs. Eastwood (Texas)
  • September 5: vs. St. Frances Academy (Maryland), who impressed with a No. 9 ranking last year
  • September 12: vs. Serra (San Mateo)
  • September 19: vs. Saint Louis (Hawaii), state champions ranked at No. 163 last year

October Madness

October will be a month to remember! St. John Bosco’s Trinity League schedule starts on October 3, facing off against JSerra. All six Trinity League opponents finished with national rankings last season, promising fans high-energy contests throughout the month. The showdown against Mater Dei at the end of the month will undoubtedly be the highlight.
