Football:
From all reports, the Chaffey players and coaches were unhappy after the Panthers showdown with visiting LA Southwest College on Saturday night.
Apparently, they didn’t play anywhere near their collective capability.
However, being 4-0 is far from a bad thing.
Chaffey cruised to a 38-14 victory, and they outscored the Cougars 17-0 in the second half.
The Panthers had statistical advantages in first downs (20-13), total offense (515-241), rushing (144-41) and passing (336-200) yards.
Julian Viramontes completed 18-of-28 for 238 yards.
Viramontes tossed a 50-yard TD pass to Damari Heller, and he was picked three times.
Christian Bozeman carried the ball 11 times for 183 yards and that included TD runs of 1 and 12 yards.
Bozeman also caught a pair of passes for 96 yards.
Heller finished with four receptions for 65 yards.
Corey Cabriales had a team-high eight catches for 126 yards.
Nehemiah Harrison caught two passes for 25 yards, and he scored on a 10-yard rushing TD.
Jeremiah Spann had a 40-yard reception and a 1-yard TD run.
Anthony Hagan went 2-for-2 on his extra-point attempts, and his 31-yard field goal in the fourth quarter closed out the scoring for the Panthers.
Gabe Motschenba completed 12-of-22 for 129 yards.
Motschenba connected with Ryan Franklin and Jelani Guerrero on 3-and-39-yard TD passes, respectively.
The Chaffey defense held LA Southwest to just 41 yards rushing.
Kyndell Rooks caught two passes for 66 yards, and Guerrero had five receptions for 65 yards and the TD.
Franklin had a game-high seven receptions for 34 yards and one score.
Zyhaire Lewis and Ryan Woods led the Chaffey defense with four sacks apiece.
Sivaj Dejurnett-Simmons tallied three tackles, including a sack and three for-loss.
Woods and Carrington Pierce had one interception apiece for Ben Buys’ defense.
Up next: The Panthers travel to Pasadena next Saturday to battle PCC at 6 in a battle of undefeated programs.
The Lancers (3-0) are coming off a 45-14 victory at Victor Valley.
