He\u2019s a great running back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Solomon scored the last two touchdowns, each runs of five yards, for the Bulldogs.<\/p>\n<p>Diamond Ranch was trailng 21-0 until Chris Miller took a pass 39 yards to the house, making it 21-7 with 10:40 to play in the second quarter.<\/p>\n<p>West Covina\u2019s defense played fast and physical, not allowing the Panthers to do much offensively.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey beat us,\u201d he said DR coach Roddy Layton. \u201cThey took it to us and beat us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had a little bit of injury problems, but what that did was created depth,\u201d said\u00a0 Maggiore. \u201cNow were healthy as we\u2019ve ever been and it seems like were hitting our stride at the right time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>West Covina (9-1, 6-0) will have a home game to open up CIF playoffs, pairings will be determined this weekend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Matt Schuler (West Covina)- Jimmy Frazier rushed for over 100 yards and three touchdowns, Chris Soloman added two more scores on the ground, and the West Covina Bulldogs defeated Diamond Ranch 42-14 on Thybers Field to notch back-to-back Hacienda league champions Thursday night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20061","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-high-school-sports"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20061","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=20061"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20061\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20140,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20061\/revisions\/20140"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=20061"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=20061"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=20061"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
