After all, the key to any rivalry is competitiveness. The fact that Harvard-Westlake has owned Chaminade - and everyone else in the Mission League - the last four years pretty much ends that discussion.

``I'm just glad that this game is out of the way,'' Young said.``A lot of people have been fueling talk about the rivalry, and as far as I'm concerned it doesn't exist.''
