Breakdown: Friday night is the Seahawks’ first home game on their new turf field after three straight games at Westminster High to start the season ... Ocean View looks to build off last week’s 15-10 victory over Rancho Alamitos ... The Seahawks lost their season opener to Brethren Christian on the field, 15-7, but that was changed to a forfeit victory this week because Brethren Christian used an ineligible player ... Coach Luis Nuñez’s Seahawks had 225 yards rushing in last week’s win over Rancho Alamitos ... Salgado, a dual-threat quarterback, has rushed for at least 96 yards in each of Ocean View’s first three games ... Santiago, coming off a 49-13 loss to Orange, is just 2-11 since the start of the 2015 season.
