<\/p>\n
(El Monte) – Steven Rivera\u2019s five touchdown passes leads Arroyo to a hard fought 42-24 win over Mountain View Friday night at B.L. Bergstrom Stadium.<\/p>\n
Game started slow for the Knights. Rivera fumbled the snap on the first play and the Vikings recovered. View couldn\u2019t get anything on the ground and settled for a Jesus \u201cChuy\u201d Ordaz field goal from 35-yard to take a 3-0 lead.<\/p>\n
After both teams exchanged punts the Knights, drove the ball and with 55-seconds left in the first quarter Rivera found a wide open Anthony Miller for a 8-yard touchdown pass to give Arroyo a 7-3 lead.<\/p>\n
The Knights got on the board again early in the second quarter when Rivera hit David Guerrero for a 60-yard touchdown catch. Just before the end of the half Rivera hit Miller again to take a 21-3 lead into the half.<\/p>\n
After stopping View on its first possession of the second half, Rivera found Miller for the third time with a 45-yard touchdown pass to open up the game at 28-3.<\/p>\n
The Vikings offense on their next possession pounded the ball down field and capped it off with a 1-yard touchdown run by Jerry Ponce to cut the lead to 28-10.<\/p>\n
Rivera would lead the Knights down the field again and Mikey Vazquez finished it off with a 4-yard touchdown run to make it 35-10.<\/p>\n
View didn\u2019t give up and Ponce found a wide open Jossymar Ulloa for a 15-yard catch and run to paydirt, Jose \u201cNacho\u201d Zamora pounded in the two point conversion to make it 35-18.<\/p>\n
Arroyo didn\u2019t let up Rivera kept the ball in the air and found Miller for the fourth time and put up the Knights 42-18.<\/p>\n
Vikings kept on pounding the ball and Ulloa broke a 60-yard touchdown run to make the game 42-24 after a two point conversion was no good.<\/p>\n
Rivera finished with 295-yards passing and 5-touchdown passes, Miller had 10 catches for 190-yards and four scores. On defense Alexis Aceves and Fernando Ochoa each had a interception.<\/p>\n
Ulloa had 175-yards rushing, and 40-yards receiving and two scores. Paul Herrera and Keivon Flores each had a fumble recovery for the Vikings.<\/p>\n
Knights (9-1) wait and see who they play in the first round of the Mid Valley playoffs, and View (5-5) caps off a solid season after going 0-10 last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
