Wilson Field at Rich Embry Field-Escondido High School-Escondido, CA:
The Longhorns of Rancho Buena Vista (2-3, 1-0) snapped a 2 game losing streak in a hard-battled contest as they defeated Escondido High School (1-4, 0-1) in a high scoring 42-38 shootout.
Longhorn QB Ace Roach had 11 completions out of 22 attempts for 136 yards, threw 2 touchdown passes of 23 and 6 yards to Trent Borger (2 receptions for 29 yards) and had another 1 touchdown pass of 23 yards. Anthony Bowman had 14 carries for 71 yards, including 2 touchdown runs of 2 and 1 yard.
"Tonight's game vs. Escondido was a good high scoring contest; the game started out in our favor at first and started to get nerve racking as some of our people got hurt along with playing people out of position but we survived." said Rancho Buena Vista Coach Joe Meyer.
"Escondido's offense is real balanced; they scored some points on the board but my running back Anthony Bowman is a warrior and helped our squad out on both sides of the football. We made him a linebacker on the 1 yard play we call our Stampede which is our shortage offense. The kids came over and we ran the play after an injury to our regular wing back who was out but we had to put kids at wing back and we coached him in the time this is a 3 yard offensive play." said Coach Meyer
"Our defense is very inexperienced, especially in our secondary - we have 4 of our regular defensive backs out and we are starting 4 new backs that are filling in - they are all juniors." said Coach Meyer.
"We play San Clemente next at our place; their squad is big up front and their quarterback is the best in the state. We are going to be thin after this game and after Monday we want to see now many kids are ready to play."
The Cougars scored their plays on a Luis Flores 31 yard field goal, Kellen McCoy (16-33-3) threw a 9 yard pass to Miguel Rocha, a 64 yarder to Quinton Gaudett, (3 receptions for 138 yards) along with a 45 yarder to Bryan Jackson (4 receptions for 91 yards).
