With a Napoleonic defense featuring only two players
barely over 200 pounds, El Capitan continually stuffed
and turned away Grossmont, allowed only two long field
goals and thrust the Vaqueros into the drivers
seat in the Grossmont North League race with a 16-13
victory Friday (Oct. 23) night at Wendall R. Cutting
Field.
We may be small, but weve got a lot of
heart, senior cornerback JAMES GALLIVAN said.
We take a lot of pride in our defense. We want
to show were the No. 1 defense in the East County.
El Capitan (4-4, 2-0) assumed its victory margin with
a 23-yard field goal by BROOKS NOBLE with 5:58 to play.
Of course, that was set up by an interception and 29-yard
return by senior safety BUBBA PROUTY, who took a ration
of friendly abuse afterward for being clipped down at
the 1-yard line.

Prouty was also stopped cold on the ensuing first-and-goal
handoff, as was TYLER MASON on second down. After a
motion penalty, MARK SCHARFENBERGs hurried pass
attempt was partially blocked and nearly intercepted
by Grossmonts CODY SOS.
After Nobles field goal, Grossmont mounted one
final drive in which the final eight plays
went like this: 1-yard run, incompletion, 0-yard run,
pass interference on El Capitan for 15 yards and a first
down, 2-yard run, incompletion, incompletion, interception.
The final pick was hauled in by Gallivan, who now has
an East County-high seven for the season, one more than
Prouty, who had tied him a few minutes earlier.
Were very competitive, Prouty said,
and James and I were talking all game how we knew
a turnover would be the difference in the game.
On the near-TD return, Prouty said, I was just
trying to lower my shoulder and get in the end zone,
but someone cut through and took my legs out. So close.
Thanks to junior fullback DESEAN WATERS, Grossmont
(2-4, 0-1) actually held the advantage in total yards
with 237 to El Caps 179, and first downs with
14 to the Vaqueros six. Waters carried 30 times
for 118 yards, but his longest run was 12 yards.
We played a heck-of-a game, Waters said,
but we just couldnt finish things.
Four turnovers certainly played a large role as both
Prouty and COLE DAVIDSON recovered fumbles for the Vaqueros.
It took awhile, but Grossmont got on the board first
with a 30-yard field goal by CHANCE HOUSE with 6:16
left in the second half. About 5½ minutes later,
he nailed a 40-yarder for a 6-0 Foothillers lead.
But 15 seconds later, with just 0:32 to play before
intermission, it was 7-6 El Capitan. Entering the game
for the first time, Scharfenberg sailed his first pass
perfectly into the long stride of tight end ROBERT CRAIGHEAD
for a 63-yard touchdown.
Big play, Grossmont coach RON MURPHY said.
We had (Craighead) locked down all half
that was our game plan. That changed the momentum of
the game.
Midway through the third quarter, El Capitan went on
top 13-6 as Scharfenberg connected with Noble on a 39-yard
reception, and MATT BURKETT scored on the next play
on a 10-yard run.
A huge mistake by El Capitan tied the game late in
the third quarter as the shotgun snap sailed over Scharfenbergs
head, and Grossmonts TAYLOR RATHBUN pounced on
it in the end zone for his first career touchdown.
Of its 12 possessions in the game, El Capitan ran nine
plays on one, six on another, four on another
none of which resulted in scores and the rest
saw three or fewer snaps.
What won the game for us was our defense,
El Capitan coach RON BURNER said. I told our guys
if we can score 14 points well win the game.
They got 16 and backed it up with a defensive line
of JAKE BURTON (6-foot-1, 220 pounds), ALLEN THOMAS
(6-0, 195), KYLE CLIPPINGER (5-9, 185) and Davidson
(6-1, 205). The linebackers are even smaller, and the
defensive backs even smaller than that.
The DBs, however, form perhaps the best unit in the
county. Theres Gallivan (5-9, 175) and Prouty
(5-9, 195), along with ANTHONY LIMA (5-10, 175), RYAN
McBURNEY (5-11, 175) and JAKE ARCAMO (5-11, 175).
Theyre not very big, but they hustle,
said Waters, the third-leading rusher in East County.
Their back four are pretty good. Theyre
really good.
NAME
THE LEAGUE CHAMPIONS
CLOSED / Friday 3
p.m.
STEELE CANYON 31, HELIX 14 There is a
two-way tie in the Grossmont South League today and
it doesnt involve perennial power Helix.
With three weeks left in the regular season, Steele
Canyon (5-2, 2-0) and Valhalla (5-2, 2-0) share the
top spot in the GSL. Those two teams face off on Nov.
6 in the battle for the Jamacha Helmet in Rancho San
Diego. That helmet may not be the only item that glitters
in the limelight that night. Both teams have worthy
foes to get by if this is to become a showdown.
But first allow Steele Canyon to celebrate just its
second win in eight meetings with the No. 8-ranked Highlanders
(5-2, 1-1).
This is a great feeling for everybody here in
our program, said Steele Canyon coach RON BOEHMKE.
Our captains took turns speaking to our kids about
what it would mean to beat Helix.
Less than two minutes into the game it did not appear
there was going to be much for the Cougars and their
fans to celebrate. The return of quarterback JAKE REED
from an ankle injury seemed to be the spark the Highlanders
would need.
Reed clicked on two passes for 34 yards, including
a 30-yard TD strike to CAMERON LEE, staking Helix to
a 7-0 lead. Credit Lee for executing a 45-yard slotback
pass to SEAN LINTON to set up Reeds early TD toss.
After that, though, momentum seemed to shift to Steele
Canyon, which put a firm lock on the proceedings. It
seemed late in the first quarter that the Cougars were
poised to pounce on the Highlanders for the upset win.
It boiled down to game of balanced offenses. Steele
Canyon had it 259 yards on 50 rushes and 142
yards passing, compared to Helix 36 yards on 7
rushes and 270 yards passing.
It was an inspiration from last year, said
Boehmke, because Coach (TROY) STARR talked about
us on EastCountySports.com, how we were a one-dimensional
offense.
Boehmke said he was excited with the development
of our offense this year because it is far from one
dimensional. That little quote was inspirational to
me the whole off-season. I should give him credit for
telling us we should change our offense.
The Cougars backfield tandem of JAKE WRAGG (15
carries, 91 yards) and ALEX PERLIN (21 carries, 90 yards,
1 TD) led Steele Canyons ground forces.
Quarterback BRAD BOEHMKE connected on 9 of 14 passes
for 142 yards.
Perhaps the Cougar that took the biggest bite out of
the Highlanders was senior TAYLOR MISHLER. Primarily
a defensive back, Mishler came on to stretch the Cougars
17-14 advantage with 2 touchdowns in the final quarter.
Mishlers scoring strikes both came on offense
the first on a 24-yard run and the second on
a 76-yard TD pass from Brad Boehmke. Thats a pretty
good scoring average 12 points on 4 touches.
Mishler averaged 10 yards on 3 carries in addition to
his one long-distance pass reception.
I thought it was going to be tough for us to
come back after that first 3-play drive they scored
on, admitted quarterback Boehmke. When we
came back on that first 10-play drive to tie the score
(7-7 on Perlins 7-yard run), I knew wed
be alright.
Boehmke was quick to credit Mishlers two 4th
quarter TDs as the knockout blows, including the second
longest pass play in Steele Canyon history.
It was even kinda like a pick play, Boehmke
said. He just ended up wide open.
We had total control on offense. We believed we could
score every time we got the ball.
The Cougars scored on 5 of 10 possessions and did not
commit a turnover. It was the fourth straight win for
Steele Canyon after a 1-2 start.
It was pretty exciting none of the guys
on this team has ever beaten Helix, said Mishler,
who also led the Cougars with 8 tackles. It was
an amazing night for us.
Reed completed 16 of 32 passes for 225 yards, including
a 4-yard scoring strike to JIMMY PRUITT. The Helix ground
game never got off the ground, which made life tougher
on Reed.
MOUNT MIGUEL 38, GRANITE HILLS 21 Perhaps
the Granite Hills defense is planning a graduation party
for Mount Miguels senior running back DERALL HUNTER.
In the last two years, the Eagles have watched Hunter
score 62 points against them, including 24 in Friday
nights (Oct. 23) Mount Miguel homecoming victory.
It was worse a year ago when Hunter tallied 38 points.
The 2-year breakdown is 10 touchdowns and a 2-point
conversion.
Hes torn us apart in the last two years,
said Eagles coach RANDY DeWITT. Ive never
seen him run backwards. He just keeps coming.
After Granite Hills captured a 14-0 first quarter lead
Hunter took over. He scored on runs of 1, 2, 4, and
11 yards. DERRICK DUNN accounted for Mount Miguels
fifth touchdown against the Eagles, on a 2-yard burst.
JORGE MEDINA chipped in with 5-for-5 PATs and a 36-yard
field goal.
We came out over-confident, said Hunter.
The coaches got us together at halftime and really
laid one on us.
Hunter, who rushed for 234 yards on 34 carries against
the Eagles, said his career scoring binge against Granite
Hills is probably more coincidence than anything else.
Hed like to believe he can do it against any team.
I know I have a lot of the Mount Miguel records,
but Id like to capture some Grossmont Conference
records too, and maybe a couple of CIF records as well,
he said.
With three games left in the regular season Hunter
ranks 12th all time in Grossmont Conference rushing
with 3,156 yards on 484 carries. His goal is to become
the sixth 4,000 yard rusher in conference history. Hunter
has 262 total points accumulated to date (43 TDs plus
two 2-point conversions).
Id love to catch REGGIE BUSHs records
but theyre out of this world, said Hunter.
But Im just gonna keep driving as hard as
I can to get us to the playoffs.
Mount Miguel quarterback AJ STANFORD also had a solid
game against Granite Hills. Not only did he rush for
100 yards on 15 carries, he also completed 9 of 17 passes
for 112 yards.
Its fun playing behind our offensive line,
said Hunter. Were all just like a family
out there. We all pull for each other and that makes
things easier. Playing in the same backfield with AJ
is something special. Hes a real good quarterback
and makes a lot happen. Hes a real team leader.
Hunter and Stanford agree that the offensive line is
the key to the teams success.
I prefer to run more than pass, said Stanford.
We have the best O-line in the East County. When
I drop back to pass, I know Ill have time to find
my receivers. Tonight it took us awhile to get our running
game going and when we did it gave us control of the
game. I enjoy being on the sideline watching our defense
play. They are the best defense in East County.
Six-foot, 308-pound senior lineman TYRONE IAULUALO
recognizes Hunters prowess as a running back.
To go out there and block for Derall is a real
pleasure and a privilege, Iaulualo said. Most
of the team has grown up pretty much together. We all
know each other and get along real well. Our senior
leadership has really stepped up this year. They have
taken control of things and made this a fun year so
far. My favorite is to get to a defensive lineman, push
him back and then onto the ground.
Its a real treat to see the back of Deralls
No. 24 (jersey) streaking downfield.
Hunter finished with 234 yards and the four scores
on 34 carries.
Granite Hills averages 32 points a game for a
reason, said Mount Miguel coach TOM KARLO. We
made some adjustments in the 2nd half and did a good
job of stopping their running game.
Granite Hills, which led 21-14 at halftime, had a chance
to take a commanding lead when BRENDAN NAGER intercepted
a pass at the Mount Miguel 30-yard line and returned
it to the 27 on the first series of the second half.
The Eagles drove deep into the red zone before Mount
Miguels DIANTE LEE intercepted a pass at the 2-yard
line to kill Granite Hills momentum.
They drove 95 yards for a touchdown after that
pick, using Stanford and Hunter behind their big, powerful
offensive line, DeWitt said. All momentum
switched to them after that.
Junior receiver GILBERT PEREZ collected 4 passes for
92 yards and 2 touchdowns for the Eagles (3-4, 0-2 GSL).
BRIAN CARROLL had 5 catches for 48 yards, but the Eagles
ground game never got off the liftoff pad.
Quarterback TYLER JOWORSKI was on the mark on 10 of
his 14 passes for 154 yards, including scoring strikes
of 38 and 44 yards to Perez.
They really got good pressure on us in the 2nd
half bringing guys from all different angles,
DeWitt noted. It tended to cause havoc backfield.

WEST HILLS 35, SANTANA 14 It was a victory
in itself for the Santana Sultans, who snapped a string
of 14 scoreless quarters with touchdowns in the middle
two periods of Fridays (Oct. 23) crosstown rivalry
between the Sultans and the Wolf Pack.
West Hills (4-3-1, 1-0-1 GNL) scored 21 points in the
fourth quarter to break a 14-14 tie to escape with a
7th straight victory in the Jack Dale Cup known
at one time as the Santee Mayors Cup series.
The Wolf Pack ran rampant over the Sultans as NICK
McDANIEL scored on a 9-yard run, as did ALAN PARKS to
take West Hills to a 28-14 lead with 7:02 to play.
Backup quarterback ADRIAN MARAZITI tacked on a final
touchdown on a 1-yard run with 42 seconds remaining.
Injuries have hampered West Hills all year but coach
CASEY ASH has always managed to come up with a solution
that filled the void.
We had some players who had to come off the bench
tonight and they all played well, Ash said. We
switched some players around on the offensive line due
to injuries. We lost our big left tackle, JAKE PETERSON
with an ankle injury.
Starting quarterback GARY ISAACSON also came out in
the 4th quarter with an elbow injury. Ash believed it
not to be serious but he didnt want to take any
chances.
Isaacson completed 7 of 11 for 78 yards and a touchdown
before leaving the game.
Our backup quarterback Adrian Maraziti really
picked up things for us, Ash said. He took
charge of our offense in the 2nd half.
Maraziti was 4-for-4 for 58 yards over the final seven
minutes.
For Santana ZACH BREIDT completed 11 of 25 passes for
130 yards including an 18-yard touchdown strike to JUNIOR
NUNEZ.
VALHALLA 35, MONTE VISTA 14 Valhallas
KWEISHI BROWN must have consumed a few energy drinks before
the Norsemen traveled to Spring Valley to take on Monte
Vista Friday night (Oct. 23) in a Grossmont South football
matchup. By the end of the game, Brown had several bone-jarring
tackles to his credit, along with three interceptions
as the Norsemen downed the Monarchs 35-14.
In the first half, Valhalla's defense shut down the
Monarchs, grudgingly giving up only 49 yards of offense.
Despite that, Monte Vista was the first to get on the
scoreboard.
After a scoreless first quarter, Valhalla was marching
down the field to start the second stanza when quarterback
PETE THOMAS threw an interception right to 6-foot-5
defender TONY JACKSON who sped 47 yards to the endzone.
ANDREAS SANCHEZ' kick was good and Monte Vista led 7-0
only 50 seconds into the quarter.
On the interception I threw for a touchdown their
defensive lineman (TONY JACKSON) just reached up and
grabbed the ball out of the air, Thomas recalled.
I had a chance to tackle him and I should have
tackled him, but I just failed to wrap him up and he
got away.
It didn't take the Norsemen long to bounce back. On
the ensuing kickoff, HANSELL WILSON found a seam on
the right sideline and sprinted 90 yards for the tying
touchdown, as Valhalla kicker NICK GIANDONI connected
with his first of 5 straight PATs.
When the Norsemen kicked off, it looked like Monte
Vista's SHAMAR BARNES was going to duplicate Wilson's
runback, but a TD-saving tackle by JEFF WINTER at the
Monte Vista 41-yard line limited Barnes to a 37-yard
return.
After a 7-yard run by quarterback MAURICE PAYNE, Monte
Vista was poised to enter Valhalla territory, but on
third and short, defensive lineman DAVID BELL stuffed
the runner for a loss, forcing the Monarchs to punt,
which was shanked, giving Valhalla good field position
at its 40-yard line.
Thomas hooked up with sophomore JEVON HASTEN for a
22-yard completion to the Monarchs' 35-yard line. A
quick pass to MANUEL PARAMO advanced the ball to the
24-yard line. Three plays later, Thomas scooped up a
low snap from center and had the poise to find NINO
MALLORY open at the goal line for a 22-yard TD, giving
the Norsemen their first lead of the game, 14-7 with
4:45 left in the first half.
Valhalla started the third quarter with a bang when,
on the first play, Thomas hit JAMES LEIGHTON on a slant
pattern for a 27-yard catch and run to the Monte Vista
47-yard line. On the next play, Thomas fought his way
through traffic for a 16-yard run to the Monarch 36-yard
line, then quickly connected with MIKE BAZZI for a 12-yard
gain to the 24. Three plays later, Thomas banged in
from the 4-yard line, increasing the Norsemens
lead to 21-7, with 9:01 remaining in the third quarter.
There was plenty of fight left in the home team. Starting
from their 33-yard line after the kickoff, the Monarchs
KENNETH TRIBBLE broke free for a 32-yard gain to the
Valhalla 26-yard line. Norsemen defensive end SHANE
PENNIX slowed down the rally a tad when he blasted the
runner for a 2-yard loss, but Payne threw a screen pass
to Barnes that advanced the ball to the Valhalla 16-yard
line and a first down.
On the next play, however, Kweishi Brown gathered in
his second interception at the Norsemen 11-yard line
to squelch the comeback.
Later in the third quarter, Monte Vista faked a punt,
snapping the ball to the up-man SHAMAR BARNES, who threw
a strike to MATT PARRIS for a 45-yard touchdown, narrowing
the gap to 21-14, with 3:50 left in the third period.
Undeterred, Thomas led the Norsemen on yet another
touchdown drive actually a two-touchdown drive.
Thomas found TRAIVONNE BROWN open in the flats and Brown
raced 42 yards for an apparent score, but a holding
penalty coupled with a dead-ball foul pushed Valhalla
back into its own territory. Three plays later, MATT
SWANGER hauled in a 38-yard Thomas pass, upping Valhalla's
lead to 28-14 as the third quarter expired.
Sophomore quarterback JOE KENNEDY took over for Thomas
in the fourth quarter and engineered a four-play TD
drive that culminated in a 9-yard scamper by Traivonne
Brown, finalizing the score at 35-14, with 8:52 left
in the game.
Thomas was 19-27-1 for 269 yards and two touchdowns.
Altogether, Valhalla had 452 yards of total offense,
limiting the Monarchs to 195 yards.
My receivers were open pretty much all night,
said Thomas. My line blocked great and gave me
plenty of time to throw. Its great having to practice
against our defense. They present a great challenge
and really help us prepare for each game.
Comparing last year to this year, Thomas said, Last
years team really didnt have too much expectations.
This year we think we can win everything.
They were just too much for us, said Monte
Vista coach PAGE CULVER. Pete Thomas puts the
ball where he needs to. Hes the best quarterback
in East County.
Monarchs MAURICE PAYNE completed 10 of 20 passes for
83 yards and also rushed for 43 yards on 10 carries.
SHERVIN IRANIHA caught 4 passes for 34 yards for Monte
Vista.
FOOTHILLS CHRISTIAN 20, SAN PASQUAL ACADEMY 13
Once the blitz package of the visiting Dragons
was translated, the Knights scored on their first three
possessions of the second half to secure Friday's (Oct.
23) Southern League slugfest at Junior Seau Field in
La Mesa.
The triumph keeps Foothills Christian (4-0 overall,
4-3 SL) in a first-place deadlock with Calvin Christian
(also 4-0, 4-3), as the teams remain on a collision
course to again determine the league titlist on Nov.
6 in Escondido.
In what was easily the most physical ballgame so far
in league play, Foothills held both speed and size disadvantages,
yet dominated most of the second half.
"Our conditioning was definitely a major factor,"
noted Knights coach STEVE PERDUE. "But all of our
hard work in the preseason up to today was the difference."
The Dragons (3-4, 2-2 SL) scored on its initial possession
before Foothills responded with 20 consecutive points.
Included were touchdown runs by SPENCER GEORGE
a 6-yarder to tie the score in the second quarter
and GARRET CAMPBELL, who opened the second half with
a 30-yard burst to give the lead for keeps to the Knights.
"The second half definitely was easier,"
said Campbell, who added field goals of 22 and 21 yards
to mount a 20-7 advantage. "We busted open a couple
of plays, then picked apart their blitz with some short
passes."
Campbell aided to the list of "busted open"
plays with a 66-yard scramble, giving the senior a total
of 165 yards on the ground. Campbell also connected
with JUSTIN ESSELSTROM on a 65-yard pass, which set
up Campbell's first field goal.
Meanwhile, the Knights defense, after allowing an 80-yard
TD drive on the game's first series, limited the Dragons
to just 84 total yards the rest of the way. Featured
among the stops was a 32-yard runback of an interception
by RYAN EDMISTON for the lone turnover by either side.
Linebackers were making most of the stops for the Knights,
including nine tackles by CODY LEWIS, while CALEB GARDNER
registered seven tackles and five assists. However,
Gardner credited the line to give the linebacking corps
room to operate.
"Our D-line played more physical than last week,"
said Gardner. "That created havoc in their backfield,
while making it an easy night for our cornerbacks."
San Pasqual Academy made life interesting in the ballgame's
final minute when Shaeed Marshall scored his second
touchdown of the contest.
With 48 seconds remaining, Marshall returned a punt
57 yards for a score, then the Dragons attempted an
onsides kickoff. Although SPA's Raymond Wyatt recovered,
which would have given the visitors a chance to force
overtime, a Dragons teammate was flagged for touching
the ball before it had traveled 10 yards, giving Foothills
the ball to run out the clock.
Marshall's initial score came on a strange hop. With
the quarterback under center, the ball slipped through
his hands, but was scooped by Marshall, who proceeded
like nothing was wrong and raced around left tackle
to cap a 13-play drive.
Sat., Oct. 24
SANTA FE CHRISTIAN 33, CHRISTIAN 13 By the
time the visiting Christian Patriots could finally inflict
a dent on the scoreboard in Saturday's (Oct. 24) Coastal
League affair, the front-running Eagles were already looking
forward to next week's showdown with Francis Parker for
a potential CIF state bowl berth.
Undefeated Santa Fe Christian (7-0, 1-0 CL) built a
comfortable 26-0 lead before the Patriots TYRONE
SAULS returned a kickoff 96 yards for a touchdown in
the opening minute of the fourth quarter. But the junior's
exciting runback was too little in overcoming a 294-yard
rushing performance by the Eagles.
The triple-option attack some call it the Delaware
Wing-T was good enough for a third straight triumph
over East County schools this season. Earlier, SFC bounced
Monte Vista, 42-6, and Grossmont, 24-13 all three
contests were held at Beauchamp Field in Solana Beach.
"Santa Fe Christian is a decent team," admitted
Sauls. "But we made a bunch of mistakes and they
took advantage. We only have to look at ourselves."
The three-header monster that composes the Sante Fe
backfield saw all three backs Keaton Giannotti
(58 yards), Sam Hoekstra (7) and Kurt Luedtke (1)
score touchdowns (one in each quarter, respectively)
to mount a 20-0 advantage.
But the back-breaker was one of only two pass completions
registered all afternoon by Giannotti, a 35-yard hookup
to Hoekstra to make it 26-0.
However, Sauls followed several of his blockers, then
made a nice cut to race coast-to-coast on the ensuing
kickoff.
"There was really nothing individual about it,"
noted Sauls. "Everybody blocked then I was wide
open to the end zone."
Hoekstra answered with his third touchdown on a 46-yard
burst, but Christian (5-3, 1-1) answered when MALCOLM
MURPHY capped a 7-play drive by diving in from the Eagles-2
on fourth down.
The drive was punctuated when JOEL ALESI raced 21 yards
after grabbing a short kickoff, then STEVEN PITTS raced
around right end for a 30-yard gainer to create a 1st-and-goal
situation.
The rush gave Pitts a team-high 96 yards on the ground
on 11 attempts. Hoekstra edged him for game honors with
97 yards on as many carries, while Giannotti gained
82 yards on 10 tries.
Meanwhile, the Eagles sacked both quarterbacks used
by the Patriots a combined five times, as ERICK ALLEN
and SHANE DILLON took turns alternating between QB and
wide receiver. Santa Fe Christian coach Nick Ruscetta
credited cornerback Jared Watson-Lewis for shutting
down the Christian pass attack.
Note: Despite SFC's perfect record, Francis Parker
(6-1, 2-0) is ranked No. 1 among small schools in Southern
California according to CalHiSports.com.
PREDICTIONS No. 8 Scotties poised for another GSL title shot
Even an injury to blue chip quarterback JAKE REED hasnt
held back the No. 8 ranked Highlanders. In fact the
Scotties are on pace to capture their fourth straight
Grossmont South League title. The best news is Reed
will be back calling the signals in Fridays (Oct.
23) league showdown at Steele Canyon (4-2, 1-0 GSL).
Hes a real competitive kid, said
Starr of the 6-foot-1, 185-pound junior. Hes
probably about 90 percent, maybe better.
Helix (5-1, 1-0 GSL), which has won six of seven meetings
from Steele Canyon, will need Reed at the helm to beat
the Cougars, who have won their last three games by a
118-41 count.
If we can win our last four I think we should
get a Top 4 seed (in the Division II playoffs),
Starr said.
If not for the success of backup quarterback JIMMY
PRUITT, who rushed for 215 yards and 4 touchdowns on
25 carries in relief of Reed and victories over El Cajon
Valley and Monte Vista, the Highlanders would not be
in the position they are today.
He did a great job for us, Starr said.
But hell go back to playing corner for us
and we need him there too.
Steele Canyon is coming off one of its finest offensive
games in school history a 41-34 victory over
Granite Hills. Led by ALEX PERLINs 249 yards and
2 touchdowns on 23 rushes the Cougars obliterated their
school record with 582 yards total offense against the
Eagles.
Quarterback BRAD BOEHMKE completed 11 of 18 passes
for 201 yards to provide balance in the win over Granite
Hills.
This is balance that Steele Canyon hasnt seen
in the past. The Cougars will need to maintain that
pace to stand a chance of knocking off favored Helix.
These teams have one common opponent Cathedral
Catholic. The Cougars lost 27-7 while the Highlanders
fell 41-19.
Steele Canyon secured a tie-breaker 36-33 OT win over
Valhalla to take the 2005 GSL crown. It will probably
be that close again this time... Helix 27-21.
VALHALLA (4-2, 1-0) at MONTE VISTA (1-5, 0-1), 7
The Norsemen have beaten the Monarchs three times
in a row, but Monte Vista owns a 23-7-2 lead in the all-time
series.
None of that will be worth spit when these teams lock
up on Friday (Oct. 23) in Spring Valley. Its all
or nothing for Monte Vista, which either wins this game
or hopes to close the regular season campaign with a three-game
sweep.
Coming off the Helix game (a 17-14 loss) our
kids are more positive, said Monte Vista coach
PAGE CULVER. They see Valhalla as mortal.
No doubt Valhalla, which has never won a league title,
is looking ahead to bigger challenges.
Weve talked about that, Valhalla
coach STEVE SUTTON said. Weve come out flat
after a big win like we had over Mount Miguel (36-29)
last week and struggled in the past. Our goal is to
win out and get a top four (Division II) seed. That
starts this week.
Monte Vista has its back against the wall. Any chance
the Monarchs have of making the playoffs must start
with a knockout of the Norsemen... Valhalla 24-14.
CHRISTIAN (5-2, 1-0) at SANTA FE CHRISTIAN (6-0,
0-0), Sat., 2 p.m. If the Patriots are going
to challenge for the Coastal League crown they must
ground the unbeaten Eagles on Saturday (Oct. 24) in
Solana Beach.
SFC, ranked No.1 in the state small schools division
by CalPreps.com, has registered key victories against
all to cross its path, including knockouts of Grossmont
(24-13), Monte Vista (42-6), La Jolla (42-21), Coronado
(39-17), Mater Dei (53-6) and Palo Verde (50-22). Get
it no close games.
There is nothing mystifying about SFC. The Eagles are
locked in on basics. They run the Wing-T as well as
any team in the San Diego CIF Section. Sam Hoekstra
(53-865, 7 TDs), Keaton Giannotti (42-302, 6 TDs) and
Kurt Luevke (30-258, 4 TDs) are the mainstays in the
attack.
Christian will have senior ERICK ALLEN back for the
stretch run. Boasting a 21-3 record as a starter, Allens
presence will provide the Patriots with a more balanced
attack. At the moment, Christian has relied on rush
by committee and a superb kicking game.
Things change in a hurry.
Fast starts in each half a 17-0 burst in the
opening 1 ½ quarters and a 21-0 spread in the
3rd quarter helped the Patriots pound out a 45-21
triumph over the Eagles a year ago. It was the most
points a Christian team has scored against Santa Fe
Christian since 1994 when the Patriots punched in 48
markers.
No way will Christian tally that kind of total in this
go-round against the Eagles, who aim to sidestep
the Patriots to set up a winner-takes-all Coastal League
engagement against Francis Parker.
The Patriots would love to spoil the party, but...
Santa Fe Christian 21-17.
GRANITE HILLS (3-3, 0-1) at MOUNT MIGUEL (4-2, 0-1),
7 When these teams faced off a year ago Mount
Miguel running back DERALL HUNTER scored 38 points as
the Matadors claimed a 49-35 victory. Hunter will be
back in the lineup again this Friday (Oct. 23) night
and you can bet the Eagles defensive coaches are well
aware of it.
In addition to the 38 points second only to
Grossmont Conference record holder REY BRATHWAITE
Hunter rushed for 338 yards on 38 carries to set the
Mount Miguel single game record. Hunter should have
another big game this time as Granite Hills has struggled
on defense. Of course the Eagles will obviously focus
their attention on the Matadors workhorse, but will
also have to contend with versatile quarterback AJ STANFORD
(168.3 ypg, 7 TDs).
Although the Eagles are a bit banged up, putting points
on the board hasnt been a problem all season long
as they average 32 points a game. The problem is Granite
Hills is surrendering almost 24 points a game.
Eagles quarterback TYLER JOWORSKI came off the bench
last week against Steele Canyon to produce one of the
finest games of his career. Hell be the starter
again as Granite Hills attempts to spoil Mount Miguel
s homecoming. Hard-nosed running back FRANTZ LARAQUE
has also been pronounced fit.
Were making big strides were
excited about it, said Granite Hills coach RANDY
DeWITT. We have some great young talent and our
seniors are starting to step up. Were not kidding
ourselves, we need to win out.
That would be six wins, which wont come easily
in this league... Mount Miguel 35-28.
GROSSMONT (2-4, 0-0) at EL CAPITAN (3-4, 1-0), 7
Both of these teams believe this game on Friday
(Oct. 23) will determine the Grossmont North League
championship.
Could be.
The Vaqueros play rock-solid defense. They are allowing
less than two touchdowns per game. Keys to El Capitan
s 3-4 defense are linemen JAKE BURTON, COLE DAVIDSON
and ALLEN THOMAS. As a unit theyve intercepted
14 passes, including six by corner JAMES GALLIVAN and
five by DOMINIC PROUTY.
I dont know how many sacks we have, but
those three guys put a lot of pressure on the quarterback,
El Capitan coach RON BURNER said. They are a major
part of the reason why we have as many interceptions
that we do.
Grossmonts success centers around versatile junior
DESEAN WATERS, who makes an impact on both sides of
the ball. Quarterback TYLER MUTTER needs a big night
as well if the Foothillers are to clear their first
major hurdle in the quest for their first league title
since 2005.
The Foothillers hope to snap a three-game losing streak,
but the call here is... El Capitan 21-14.
SANTANA (2-5, 0-1) at WEST HILLS (3-3-1, 0-0-1),
7 These Santee rivals will collide for the
annual Jack Dale Cup (formerly the Santee Mayors
Cup) Friday (Oct. 23) at the blue carpeted Wolf Pack
Den in a Grossmont North League skirmish.
West Hills has owned the cup the past six years and
should maintain possession this season, considering
the struggling Sultans have not scored in the past 13
quarters. Theyve also dropped 22 passes and been
in the red zone 14 times over the last three games and
come up empty.
Junior quarterback GARY ISAACSON (154.7 ypg, 12 TDs)
of West Hills is making a strong bid to earn East County
Rookie of the Year honors. His steady play plus the
return of speedy ALAN PARKS to the lineup may be enough
to carry the Pack to its second circuit crown
in three years and the fifth in the past nine seasons.
Santana, which looks to quarterback ZACH BREIDT, tight
end T.D. GROSS, slotback JOHN BURKE and linebacker JUSTIN
WILLIAMS to provide the spark, has been sapped by illness
and injuries.
In last weeks 21-0 loss to El Capitan the Sultans
were missing 15 players. Unless the Sultans get the
majority of those players back in uniform it will be
another long night... West Hills 35-14.
SAN PASQUAL ACADEMY (3-3, 2-1) vs. FOOTHILLS CHRISTIAN
(3-3, 3-0) at Seau Field, 6:30 In the Southern
Conference, when you have do-it-all GARRET CAMPBELL
on your side, that makes you the favorite.
However, San Pasqual Academy has posted similar scores
against common opponents. That shouldnt matter
because the Knights are on a three-game roll soon to
be four... Foothills Christian 34-19.
