Football:
If you happened to be on the Los Altos sidelines on Thursday evening, it was clear early on that it wasn’t going to be a good night.
Glendora led 21-0 in the first quarter despite having run just one offensive play at that point.
And the Tartans would cruise to a 49-14 road victory to improve to 4-0.
Braydon Brus ran the opening kickoff back 97 yards for a touchdown.
On the first possession for the Conquerors, JoJo Najarro blocked the punt and Dion Skugrud recovered the ball in the end zone for a TD and a 14-0 Tartans’ lead.
After Los Altos fumbled a punt snap, Zachary Ford sprinted in from 16 yards out and the lead grew to 21-0.
Glendora took its foot off the pedal and the final 14 minutes of the game was played with a running clock.
Jake Denerson completed 6 of his 9 pass attempts for 146 yards and two TD’s.
JoJo Najarro had three catches for 65 yards and a score.
Matt Moreno had two receptions for 49 yards, including a 6-yard TD catch from Denerson.
Zachary Ford carried the ball 10 times for 82 yards and the early score.
Will Nickel had a 1-yard TD run in the win.
Marquize Brown carried the ball seven times for 35 yards and a TD.
Up next: GHS will host West Covina on Thursday at Citrus College.
Box Score:
GHS: 21-21-7-0-(49)
