The Bishop's Knights host No. 5 Mission Bay in the CIF San Diego Section Division 4 quarterfinals Friday.

Bishop's earned the bracket's fourth seed with a 7-3 record after closing the regular season with a 42-13 loss to Santa Fe Christian on Oct. 30 in La Jolla, according to MaxPreps. The Eagles, who finished 11-0, scored 21 unanswered points in the second quarter to take control after Bishop's led 7-0 through the first.

Santa Fe Christian added a third-quarter touchdown and two more in the fourth to pull away. Bishop's scored a fourth-quarter touchdown but could not close the gap. The Eagles ran 59 plays to Bishop's 39 and collected 15 first downs to the Knights' 10.

Santa Fe Christian running back B. Berg rushed for 113 yards and two touchdowns on 10 carries. Eagles quarterback Dax Labrum completed 17 of 25 passes for 192 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions. Wide receiver Chase Woolley caught five passes for 49 yards.

Individual statistics for Bishop's players were not available.

Despite the lopsided loss, the Knights secured a first-round bye in the Division 4 bracket. The East County Californian reported that Bishop's earned the No. 4 seed in Division 4, a 12-team bracket where the top four seeds sit out the opening round.

Mission Bay advanced to the quarterfinals with a 49-0 first-round win over Army-Navy on Nov. 6, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune. The Buccaneers enter at 5-6.

Bishop's finished the regular season 2-1 in Coastal League play, good for second in the league standings, according to MaxPreps. The Knights scored 242 points and allowed 180 across 10 games. Their seven wins included a 35-0 shutout of La Jolla Country Day on Sept. 25 and a 34-6 victory over Army-Navy on Oct. 10.

Santa Fe Christian, meanwhile, parlayed its unbeaten regular season into one of four spots in the CIF Open Division, where the Eagles face top-seeded Carlsbad in the semifinals. The 423-student school's placement among programs with enrollments of 1,700 to 2,764 has drawn public debate, as Times of San Diego reported. The seeding was determined by a ranking algorithm that weighs strength of schedule, margin of victory, signature wins and enrollment, according to Santa Fe Christian coach Jon Wallace.

Kickoff for Bishop's Division 4 quarterfinal against Mission Bay is set for 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 13, in La Jolla.
