Breakdown: Edison (3-2) hosts Los Alamitos (1-4) in a battle of perennial playoff teams in a Sunset League opener … Edison last missed the playoffs in 2008, a year that saw five teams finish with 3-2 records in the league and left the Chargers out of the dance after coin flips … The Chargers, ranked No. 7 in the CIF Southern Section Division 3 poll, have played in three consecutive contests decided by a touchdown or less. It would not be surprising to see a fourth such game, as the Griffins have been competitive against a strong nonleague schedule … Los Alamitos, for its part, has not missed the postseason since 2011. The Griffins have won the last two meetings between the teams, including a 17-10 victory at Cerritos College last year.
