HEAD TO HEAD Matchup of the week: STEVE SMITH Taft Wide receiver DENNIS KEYES Birmingham Defensive back Smith, a smooth, athletic, explosive 6-3, 190-pound athlete, came into the season as the region's top junior. He's done nothing to diminish those credentials, catching 27 passes for 582 yards and four touchdowns to help lead the Toreadors of Woodland Hills to a 3-1 record heading into Friday's crucial West Valley League matchup with Birmingham of Van Nuys. Smith is proving his worth on defense, too, having picked off seven passes. But it's on offense where he is most dangerous and the Patriots must slow him. Keyes, a 6-1, 190-pound junior, has size and athletic ability. He's big enough to body up on Smith if the Patriots decide to play man coverage, and if they use zone, Keyes will help on double-teams. The key will be his ability to play physical, and if he can jar Smith with a couple of big hits, he might be able to throw him off his game. Keyes also is an excellent running back, gaining 423 yards and eight touchdowns on 39 carries. Friday, 7 p.m. at Taft High. ON DECK: This week's must see: Birmingham at Taft football Last year, Taft came in heavily favored and was humbled 41-14. This year, Birmingham is favored, though not as heavily.

Plus, Taft's Steve Smith is as dangerous a two-way player as they come. Get there early or there won't be a seat. --The vitals vi·tals pl.n. 1. The vital body organs. 2.
