(Glendora) – Angel Verdugo\u00a0ran for three touchdowns\u00a0and the Bonita defense forced three turnovers as the Bearcats beat San Dimas\u00a023-14 Thursday night in the annual battle for the Smudgepot at Citrus College.<\/p>\n

Verdugo was\u00a0relentless\u00a0carrying the ball 40 times\u00a0for 173 yards.\u00a0Verdugo ran it from the backfield, from the wildcat and\u00a0even caught a couple of passes for good measure.\u00a0San Dimas knew what was coming but still couldn’t stop it – especially\u00a0on a late fourth quarter drive\u00a0that led to a game sealing field goal when\u00a0Verdugo\u00a0controlled the rock.<\/p>\n

Sophomore Garrett Deane booted a 24 yard field goal with 1:33 left to ice the game. Verdugo carried the ball 11 times in the 12 play march. The other play was a fourth and six from the 25 when Cody Brazzill hit Danny Gelalich for 20 yards and a first down.<\/p>\n

***Bonita scored on its third possession of the contest when the Bearcats forced a San Dimas fumble and took over at the Saint 18. Two plays later Verdugo blasted into the end zone from 15 yards out.<\/p>\n

***Both of the Saints\u2019 touchdowns came on big plays. Manny Elizalde scored on a 62 yard run early in the second quarter to tie it at seven. Bobby Rios\u2019 39 yard run early in the third tied it at 14.<\/p>\n

***San Dimas had a golden opportunity to take the lead in the third after blocking a Bonita punt. But the Saints went three and out.<\/p>\n

***Bonita scored on the next possession when Verdugo, (who else?) capped an eight- play 74-yard drive with a seven yard run.<\/p>\n

***San Dimas turned the ball over three times (two fumbles, interception) to none for Bonita.<\/p>\n

***Brazzill had nine carries for 60 yards and completed 10 of 16 for 108 yards.<\/p>\n

***San Dimas had 195 yards on the ground with Rios leading the way with 80 yards on nine carries. Andrew Avila had 80 yards passing.<\/p>\n

***\u201dThis is a proud group of guys. There were 2-8 as freshman. Angel Verdugo did a great job and I thought our offensive line played really well. Also Cody Brazzill made the plays when he had to. That\u2019s a great team over there (San Dimas). I mean they\u2019re defending CIF champions.\u201d \u2013 Bonita HC Adrian Medrano.<\/p>\n

***Blocking up front for Bonita: LT- Austin Russell, LG- Daniel Burgess, C- Noah Loun, RG- Baylee Smith, RT- Dustin Lees.<\/p>\n

***Blocking up front for San Dimas: LT \u2013 Yossef Hanna, LG- Jonathan Aleriano, C- Domonic Moronez, RG- Nathan Collier, RT \u2013 Charles Santisteban.<\/p>\n

***San Dimas falls to 3-2 with the loss while the Bearcats improve to 4-1.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
