After battling back from a 10-point second-half deficit, the Cougars simply couldn't hold off Santa Cruz which scored the go-ahead touchdown with 45 seconds to play to defeat SLV 27-20 on Saturday, Oct. 24.
The loss was disappointing for the Cougars who battled back from 10 down in the second half, only to see Santa Cruz mount a game-winning drive.
A couple of observations:
Sean Conner is developing into a force on short yardage situation. Conner gets low and pumps his legs to blast through hole, even when it's not there.
Fourth down is Trevor Romele time. On fourth and short, a play-action quarterback keeper around one of the ends usually nets the Cougars the first down and much, much more. Romele is fast and seems to be a talented runner.
Zeke Sanders is really fast. On an 85-yard touchdown run, Sanders accelerated down the sideline and left everyone in the dust. The man has wheels. However, despite his size, he's not a tough runner and goes down on the first or second hit almost every time.
Homecoming next week against a scrappy Harbor team!
