Football:
In a battle of unbeatens, Northview dominated Covina, 49-21, on Friday evening at Covina District Field.
The Colts got as close as 28-21 of the Vikings.
But Northview closed out the game on a 21-0 run.
There is no doubt as to the star of the game.
His name is Keanu Tauvao.
Tauvao rushed for 255 yards on 25 carries.
And that included TD runs of 1, 2, 5 and 84 yards.
Tauvao actually out-rushed four Covina backs by 101 yards.
Erik Jimenez completed 4 of 8 for 93 yards.
Jimenez also had a 15-yard TD run.

Isaiah Lucero caught a pair of passes for 14 yards, and he had an 85-yard kickoff return for a score.
Robert Lucero had a 3-yard TD run.
Covina’s Jake Duronslet made history on Friday.
He needed 179 yards to become CHS’ all-time leading passer.
And JD completed 16 of his 26 pass attempts for 220 yards.
He also tossed a pair of TD passes to Matthew Olivas, who tallied seven receptions for 93 yards.
The Northview ‘D’ picked Duronslet twice.
Duronslet now has 6,659 yards passing and 82 career TD’s since 2021.
Duronslet gained 43 yards on seven carries.
Kwame Parrish had a team-high 92 yards on 32 carries.
Parrish’s 10-yard TD run pulled the Colts to within 7-6 of the Vikings.
He also had a 20-yard reception.
