Last week, the Golden Valley Bulldogs won their 1st game since 2017 and looked to continue with their winning ways against the Saints of Santa Maria High School Friday night. However, the Bulldogs fell short as they were met with a potent running attack from the Saints.

Bakersfield High running back Wesley Wilson glanced up at the Griffith Field scoreboard and didn’t like what he saw.   His Drillers were trailing Ridgeview, 17-14, late in the third quarter of the two teams’ non-league game on Friday night.   That’s when Wilson decided it was time for him to kick things into high gear and help get the BHS offense going.

A chip on the Foothill High Trojans’ shoulders is exactly what they needed Friday night. The Trojans (2-2) used their run game and overpowered the West High Vikings (1-2), winning 33-14. The nonconference game was played Sept. 13 at Mira Monte’s field.

The Stockdale Mustangs came into Independence High School looking to get their second win of the season and did just that by the score of 32-7. The Mustangs came out hot on offense with two big runs from Sophomore RB Jaykob Jones that placed them in the red zone on their first drive of the game. On the fourth play of the drive, Junior QB Jack Kaiser passed to Jayden Hollis for a 19-yard Mustangs touchdown to put them on the board 7-0.
