(Citrus\u00a0College) –\u00a0Gladstone overcame\u00a0an early 9-0 deficit, shut out\u00a0Bassett in the second half and went on to beat the Olympians 44-22 Thursday night at Citrus College.<\/p>\n

It was the usual suspect doing the damage for the\u00a0Gladiators. Kevin Amezquita played a part in all of the\u00a0touchdowns for G-Stone.\u00a0He threw for three scores and ran for three more while also\u00a0running in three two point conversions. He finished the night with 242 yards passing and 90 yards rushing.<\/p>\n

Christian Arteaga had a big night as well\u00a0with nine receptions for 98 yards.\u00a0Sergio Torres has just three catches but two of them went for touchdowns and he had 101 yards receiving.<\/p>\n

Gladstone stayed perfect with the win improving to 6-0 and 3-0 in league.<\/p>\n

“We’re extremely happy both offensively and defensively. I wish we would have played a little better in the first half\u00a0but we’re still happy,” said\u00a0Gladstone Coach Albert Sanchez.\u00a0“To be able to adjust and follow the game\u00a0plan, that’s the main thing.”<\/p>\n

It didn’t start well for the Gladiators.\u00a0A\u00a0couple of penalties\u00a0and\u00a0then an intentional grounding penalty\u00a0in the end zone\u00a0on Amezquita resulted in a safety for Bassett and a 2-0 lead. On the next series\u00a0Jamal Greenfield capped a 55 yard drive\u00a0with a three yard touchdown catch from Nicolas Colmenero and stunningly it was 9-0 Bassett.<\/p>\n

“They came out and punched us. Give credit to Bassett,”\u00a0Sanchez said.<\/p>\n

Amezquita and Torres connected on a big play\u00a0for a 55 yard touchdown\u00a0on the next series and Amezquita\u00a0ran in the two point conversion.<\/p>\n

Joshua De La Torre pounded into the endzone from the one yard line\u00a0to finish a 75 yard march\u00a0early in the second quarter for a 15-8\u00a0Olympian advantage.\u00a0G-Stone came right back\u00a0with a 53 yard drive culminating\u00a0with a 17 yard TD run by Amezquita to tie it.<\/p>\n

Bassett had one more bullett in the gun.\u00a0Colmenero\u00a0threw a swing pass to Greenfield and he turned it into a 67 yard play\u00a0as he broke it down to the two yard line. De La Torre then slammed in again\u00a0on the next play for a 22-15 lead with 5:34 left in the half.\u00a0It was the last time\u00a0the Olympians scored.<\/p>\n

Amezquita’s two yard run and two point conversion gave\u00a0Gladstone it’s first lead 23-22 at the half.<\/p>\n

In the third quarter\u00a0Torres\u00a0did his thing again, catching a\u00a032 yard TD strike from Amezquita.\u00a0This followed\u00a0another short scoring run by Amezquita and the Gladiators had broken it open.<\/p>\n

Scott Torres hauled in\u00a0a 14 yard touchdown\u00a0toss from Amezquita in the fourth quarter to round out the scoring.\u00a0The Gladiators forced Bassett into two turnovers to help seal the victory.\u00a0Juan Aladana had two interceptions.<\/p>\n

Bassett did rack up over 200 yards on the ground between\u00a0Christopher Rios (66), De La Torre (56) Greenfield (52) and Ricky Mejia (41). Basset fell\u00a0to 2-4 overall and 1-2 in league.<\/p>\n

Next up for the undefeated Gladiators is a date next Friday night with Duarte.<\/p>\n
