(Monrovia) – Nick Bueno passed for 100 yards\u00a0and rushed for another 100 to lead Monrovia to a 40-7 win over South El Monte Friday night in the first round of the CIF SS Mid-Valley Division playoffs.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 The Wildcats got on the board fast when Dujawn Jones landed on a fumble from Ellis McCarthy in the end zone to give them an early 6-0 lead. After an Eagles three and out Bueno made it look easy when he scored on a 60 yard touchdown run.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 On the first play of the second quarter Derrick Johnson scored on a 13 yard run to make it 20-0.\u00a0Then another three and out for South led to a Jay Henderson 55 yard punt return for a score.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 Bueno then put the game away when he fired touchdown passes to Jones and Henderson late in the second quarter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 With a 40-0 halftime lead both teams went with a running clock the second half. Monrovia only had one play in the third quarter which ended up being a fumble.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 The Eagles lone score came when quarterback Anthony Jiminez went in from one yard out on a quarterback sneak. Rene Flores led South El Monte with 81 yards rushing, and Freddy Aguilar had 11 tackles and two fumble recoveries on defense.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 South’s season comes to an end at 3-8, after starting off 0-5. Monrovia will travel to Paraclete next week to face the defending CIF champs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
