Half a dozen Tulare County high school football teams are still in the hunt for a Central Section championship, including Tulare Union (Division I-A), Tulare Western (Division II) and Redwood (Division II). Here are the top Tulare County games to watch in the second round of the 2026 Central Section playoffs (all games are on Friday, Nov. 13, unless noted), plus the Visalia Times-Delta's predictions. No. 7 San Luis Obispo (8-3) at No. 2 Tulare Western (10-1), 7 p.m., Bob Mathias Stadium The East Yosemite League champion Mustangs won their first playoff game under head coach Derek Rosa. Tulare Western's 29-7 first-round victory over Justin Garza marked the program's first postseason win in seven years when the Mustangs reeled off three consecutive playoff victories to advance to the 2019 Central Section Division II championship game. Can the Mustangs make a similar run? It's definitely possible. Tulare Western has one of the most explosive spread offenses in the entire state. Behind record-setting quarterback Juju Hernandez (4,216 passing yards, 53 passing touchdowns) and star receiver Amarion Taylor (88 catches, 1,685 receiving yards, 26 receiving touchdowns), the Mustangs are averaging nearly 44 points per game.

The project is part of a broader plan to improve transportation and support business development and freight movement along the Avenue 280 corridor, which includes Caldwell Avenue and Visalia Road and stretches from Highway 99 east to Exeter. The Highway 99 interchange portion of the project will cost $82 million, according to Caltrans Project Manager Mohamad Annan.
