Billy Livingston led the Colts to victory with three touchdown passes <\/p><\/div>\n

By Tim Peterson<\/p>\n

(Covina) –\u00a0Billy Livingston didn’t\u00a0play in the first quarter and he didn’t play for half of the\u00a0fourth quarter.\u00a0But two and a half quarters was all he needed to\u00a0carve up the Wilson defense in a 36-16 rout of the Wildcats in Valle Vista League action Friday night.<\/p>\n

He threw for 261 yards and\u00a0three touchdowns as he had his way with the Wilson secondary.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Livingston sat out the first\u00a0quarter in favor of Daniel\u00a0Sifuentes who had taken all the snaps this week in practice. Livingston was injured in last week’s victory\u00a0over Northview in the second quarter and didn’ t play the rest of the game.<\/p>\n

“Sifuentes had taken all the snaps\u00a0and we wanted to see how he looked,”\u00a0said Covina Coach Darryl Thomas. “Billy\u00a0was like a ‘break glass if emergency’ situation. We’ll in the second quarter we broke that glass.\u00a0He’s our leader anad our starter so we wanted to get him in there.\u00a0He’s been playing well for us all year.”<\/p>\n

On his\u00a0first play from scrimmage\u00a0Livingston hit Remontay\u00a0McCain\u00a0for a 69 yard touchdown pass and the Colts were off and running with a 7-3 lead.\u00a0Wilson scored first\u00a0on a Hector Dominguez 22 yard field goal but\u00a0the Wildcats didn’t score again until the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n

After a bad snap by\u00a0Wilson gave the Colts a safety for a 9-3 lead, Livingston struck again. This time he hit\u00a0Vinny Venegas for 20 yard touchdown strike to cap a four play, 29 yard\u00a0drive after a short Wildcat punt.<\/p>\n

On the next series, Covina marched 53 yards on seven plays to go up\u00a023-3. Venegas finished the drive with a three yeard run.\u00a0Livingston hit Venegas\u00a0for 24 yards down to the Wilson four to set up the score as the teams headed to the halftime break.<\/p>\n

In the second half it was more of the same as Covina scored on its first two possessions. Livingston fired his third touchdown pass of\u00a0the night –\u00a0a 21 yarder to Randy Robledo. Venegas got number three (two on the ground and one receiving)\u00a0on the next series when he capped an 80-yard drive with a six yard run.<\/p>\n

Wilson scored twice in the fourth qaurter\u00a0but the horse (or in this case the colt)\u00a0was already down the road. Moses Vega scooted in for a 13 yard TD run and\u00a0Brandon Schrieman found Josh Nelson\u00a0on a\u00a016 yard touchdown pass.<\/p>\n

“Livingston is a good quarterback.\u00a0He throws the ball well and makes good reads and all that\u00a0but we have to overcome that. We\u00a0need to have better coverage. We can’t pick and choose\u00a0when we want to play hard,” said Wilson Coach Brian Zavala. “We didn’t want to start league play like this.\u00a0We have a home game against Northview next week and we’ll have to come out and play better.”<\/p>\n

Livingston hit five different receivers on the night.\u00a0Peter De la cruz\u00a0caught six passes for 90 yards.\u00a0McClain hauled in two for 85 yards and a score\u00a0and Venegas had\u00a0two for 44 and the touchdown.\u00a0Gevontray Ainsworth had four receptions for 39 yards. He also carried the ball 11 times for 65 yards.<\/p>\n

Schrieman split time with Josh Morales in Wilson’s two quarterback system.\u00a0He\u00a0completed\u00a0 16 of\u00a026 for 247 yards and\u00a0a touchdown. He also threw an interception.\u00a0 Nelson was the favorite target with seven catches for 145 yards and a score.<\/p>\n

Morales\u00a0ran for 24 yards and completed a pass for 19 more.<\/p>\n

Covina improved to\u00a05-1 overall and 2-0 in league. Wilson drops to 0-1 in the Valle Vista\u00a0and 3-2 overall. While Wilson is hosting Northview next week, Covina will travel to Nogales.<\/p>\n
