Grizzlies sweep up Hoover at home

In last week's loss to Littlerock, Golden Valley's offense was inoffensive. Friday night, it took out its frustrations on Hoover High (0-1), in a 48-6 victory, setting a school record for points in a game in the process. Rushing and defensive stops were keys to victory as the Grizzlies (1-1) ran for 228 yards, including 106 from Richard Sarabia off 10 carries. Of Golden Valley's six touchdowns, four came on the ground courtesy of four ...

Underdog Lancers stun Vikings

Thousand Oaks stunned Valencia 23-14 in its home opener at Paul Priesz Stadium. The Lancers capitalized on three interceptions to stifle the Vikings offense.

Who’s the champ?

Spreading Wings

The Saugus football team has always played the role of David in a league of Goliaths. The Centurions were never in conversations regarding Foothill League titles or championships. Those conversations were reserved for Hart, Canyon and Valencia. But now Saugus has stoned its way into the picture. Behind the Centurions' quest to win its first-ever outright Foothill League title is a quiet yet formidable leader. He's one of the more anonymous faces behind the success ...

Title picture isn’t set yet

At this point, making it to the postseason is a long shot for Canyon. The last playoff spot in the Foothill League will likely go to Hart. A Canyon win and a Hart (4-5, 2-2) loss to Golden Valley would secure a spot for the Cowboys (5-4, 2-2), but it's unlikely that the Indians will drop their last regular season game to a league-winless Grizzlies team. But stranger things have happened. In Canyon's last game ...
