Joey Harmon returned to action after a year off due to injury.
(Alhambra) – The Apaches scored 16-points in 48-seconds late in the first half to pull away from the host Moors. Arcadia scored on the ground, air and defensively during the time span to easily dispatch Alhambra 38-6.
The 22-point outburst in the second quarter began innocently with Tealon Haggerty scoring from 15-yards out that gave the Apaches a nine-point lead.

Arcadia then took advantage of premium field possession to extend the lead on Joey Harmon’s first touchdown pass in two seasons from 27-yards.
Harmon finished the night 16 of 23 for 196 yards and a touchdown and an interception.
