South Pas Rally Upends Moors

(Alhambra) – South Pasadena overcame a 7-0 halftime deficit to beat Alhambra 16-7 Friday night at Moor Field.

Jason Takarabe scored on a 35-yard run to put the Tigers ahead with 8:23 left in the fourth quarter. He finished with 14 carries for 73 yards.

Michael Partida later scored on a one-yard quarterback sneak with 5:09 left to ice it for South Pas.

Alhambra’s Joe Santana rushed for 116 yards on 25 carries and a touchdown but it wasn’t enough. He got the Moors on the board first with a four-yard run in the first quarter.

The momentum seemed to shift when T.J. Ragland’s 87-yard kick off return to open the second half was negated by a holding penalty.

The Moors fell to 2-3 with the loss while South Pasadena improved to a perfect 4-0.
