(POMONA) – With less than a minute to play in the fourth, quarterback Darreon Lockett completed 2-for-2 for 43-yards, drove\u00a0his team to the one yardline setting up Edwin Martinez for the game winning 24-yard field goal to beat California 43-41 Friday night at Pomona high school.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
With 1:08 left in the fourth, Cal running back Andrew Reyes punched his way into the end zone from three yards out to give Cal a 43-41 lead.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Four plays and 38 seconds later, Lockett connected with wide out Brian Lamb for a 41-yard touchdown pass. Unfortunately they could not convert the 2-point conversion. Cal lead 41-40 with 30-seconds left in the game.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
To nobody’s surprise, Pomona lined up for the onside kick and Lamb recovered the ball at Cal\u2019s 43- yard line.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Lockett connected with Chris Trimble for 22-yards. On the very next play Lockett connected with\u00a0 Cortha McNair for 21-yards to put\u00a0the Red Devils at the one with less than three seconds on the clock. A false start pushed the field goal attempt back from 19-yards to 24. Neither school had a time out to either freeze Martinez or relax him. He ended the game when his kick sailed through the uprights, closing out any Condor comeback.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Following a low scoring first half and being down 20-13, the Red devils offense, led by Lockett took eight plays to tie the score at 20 apiece. Lockett scrambled his way for a 18-yard touchdown with 9:15 left to play in the third.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
However, Cal answered right back with a touchdown on the ensuing possession. Quarterback Evan Barajas faked the pitch and scored on a two-yard keeper putting his team up six with 4:21 in the quarter. Following the PAT, Cal led 27-20<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Pomona took no time to respond to Cal\u2019s 11-play scoring drive. Just 15 seconds later running back Jarvaris Steward scored on a 36-yard run. Tying the score at 27.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Both teams continued to trade scoring blows throughout the second half.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
***”We had to come from behind. We showed perseverance and our guys dug deep and fought,\u201d said Pomona HC Keith Richardson.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
***Lockett recorded 1 touchdown reception, 1 rushing touchdown, and threw 2 touchdowns.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
***Aaron Sandoval started the game at quarterback while Lockett was going back and forth from\u00a0slot receiver and quarterback.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
***”He\u2019s a leader. He always wants the ball in his hands and he believes,\u201d said Richardson. \u201cHe never doubts himself, never doubts his teammates and he just keeps believing. He pushed our guys to the limit.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
***The Red Devil defense forced four fumbles in the game. Three came in the first half and all three were recovered deep in the red zone.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
***”We just stuck\u00a0together and fought like a family since we’ve been doing since summer,\u201d said Lockett after the game. \u201cWe just have to build that bond.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
***Pomona unveiled\u00a0their 2014 CIF championship banner before the game.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
***Cal running back Andrew Reyes scored three touchdowns and rushed for 142-yards<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
***Cal Defensive tackle David Burrell picked off Sandoval\u2019s pass and returned it 61-yards for the touchdown.<\/div>\n
