Torres finished with 117-yards on 19-carries. Brown led Temple City with 143-yards on 17-carries.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n …And I thought the only University H.S. was in Irvine…at least I didn\u2019t draft Dominic Rhodes…<\/span><\/p>\n While tracking Southman Lee Aguirre\u2019s career at BYU…Let\u2019s remember a few others. Pasadena product Armon Binns caught five passes for 41-yards yesterday in Cincinnati\u2019s blowout of Rutgers yesterday… Muir standout Lance Mitchell was nominated for PAC 10 Defensive Player of the Week playing for Oregon State against Portland State this weekend.<\/span><\/p>\n If you have others send them in we love to hear about Mid Valley area alumni…<\/span><\/p>\n Check out Duane Barker\u2019s \u201cJuco Wire\u201d for updates on players close to home…Including Tra Sumler who had a great debut for Fullerton on Saturday.<\/span><\/p>\n Getting anxious to see Wilson studs Mose Vega and Brandon Gonzales who open things up Thursday night against Sonora.<\/span><\/p>\n Obligatory John Scanlan question of the day: Does Jim Thome get Hall of Fame consideration as it seems he is untainted by the steroid issue (correct me if I\u2019m wrong about that)?<\/span><\/p>\n Oh, I\u2019ve always been a Vicente Padilla fan!<\/span><\/p>\n And on this date in 2006 Gabrielino\u2019s Fabian Gutierrez rushed for 89-yards as the Eagles gained a 9-7 victory over San Marino. Note: It was also the last time Gabby scored a point against the Titans who have shut them out the last two seasons.<\/span><\/p>\n They meet at San Marino this Friday.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cMid Valley Classic\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Game Twenty: September 10, 1999 at Arroyo<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Eric Duenas 54-yard touchdown pass down the middle to Matt Vogel with 33-seconds left in the game exploited a break down in the TC secondary and gave Arroyo a 36-30 victory of Temple City in Mike Mooney\u2019s debut as head coach.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n The Rams led 30-21 in the fourth quarter using a power running game led by Kevin Brown\u2019s 20-carries for 221-yards and three touchdowns. Brown scored on runs of 63, 12, and 22-yards.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Vogel, a sophomore, did much of the damage for the Knights scoring on a 89-yard kick-off return, a 20-yard halfback option pass to Willie Lopez, and of course the game winner.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Stay thirsty my friends…<\/span><\/p>\n 106<\/span><\/p>\n Fanview Lite appears Monday thru Saturday at www.midvalleysports.com<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
