<\/p>\n\n\n

Brus did everything for the Tartans inclding recovering a Downey fumble late in the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brus got Glendora started early with a 34-yard touchdown run on just the fourth play of the game to give the Tartans a 7-0 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later in the first quarter Brus caught a line drive punt in stride and turned it into a 48-yard punt return for a touchdown and just like that it was 14-0 with just over four minutes left in the first quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early in the second quarter after the Vikings were stopped on fourth down Zachary Ford joined the party with a 14-yard touchdown jaunt to finish a short 41-yard drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rout appeared to be officially on when five minutes later Brus broke a couple of tackles and raced 25 yards for the score to make it 28-0 with six minutes left in the half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Downey managed to score with 1:17 left in the first half as Noah Paez hit Isaiah Blair on a 25-yard touchdown pass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a scorelsss third quarter, Glendora effectively put it away in the fourth. It was Brus again, who else? Who beat the cornerback to the endzone on a 10-yard touchdown run to cap a 10-play, 59-yard drive with 5:18 left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With under three minutes remaining Paez found Antonio Ruiz on a screen pass and he went 37 yards for the touchdown for the final score of the night. But it wasn’t nearly enough as the Vikings were left under the Brus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI can’t say enough about him,\u201d said Glendora head coach Brnadon Roher. \u201cHe’s a just great kid and a great player. I’m really proud of all of these kids. It’s us against everybody else. Nobody thinks we can win Division 3.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paez threw for 162 yards for Downey but the Vikings could never really find a groove offensively. The Vikes finshed 8-3 overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glendora, still indefeated 11-0, now advances to the second round as its quest for a title contiunes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
