Mid-Valley Division Top 20

There were some surprises in Zero Week and some that were expected. One thing for sure is that there was no shortage of great games. It was fitting that West Covina – Covina was Saturday night because it was a perfect way to cap a great football weekend.  

Quick Slants – West Covina vs Covina

What a scene for the game last night. Very much like a championship atmosphere.

West Covina Survives Covina’s Encore

It Takes a Village Rally to Beat La Salle

(Pasadena) – Village Christian rallied from a 21-0 deficit late in the third quarter, and ran off 26 consecutive points to shock La Salle 26-21 Friday night in the season opener.

Knights Tame Jags, 45-12

By Martin Lopez (Ontario)- The Arroyo Knights got four touchdown passes from Steven Rivera and never looked back in a 45-12 victory over the Ontario Jaguars Friday night in the season opener for both schools.

Moor, Moor, Moors!

  (Alhambra)- The Alhambra Moors jumped out to a 27-0 lead in the first quarter and led 40-0 near the end of the second when they took a knee to stop the bleeding. 

Esperanza’s Whirl-Poole Drowns Heralds

By Josh Ouellette (Whittier) Whittier Christian was submerged by Esperanza and running back Troy Poole’s 330 yards rushing and six touchdowns as the Aztecs took the season opener between the schools 49-34.

Mustangs Quick Strikes Doom Matadors

(San Gabriel) – After falling behind early in its first game, Muir rattled off 37-unanswered points to defeat San Gabriel 40-23. Although the Mustangs managed to produce quick strike scores throughout the game, it was the 17 penalties that will not sit well with head coach Ken Howard.

Silvas Carries Don Bosco to Victory
