Football:
Glendora picked up Sierra League victory No. 1 of the 2024 season on Thursday evening.
And it wasn’t close.
GHS defeated their visitors from Claremont, 35-6, at Citrus College.
The Tartans led 35-0 at the break, and the entire second half was played with a running clock.
Austin Coronado set the tone early.
Coronado mowed his way through a number of CHS defenders, and he rumbled his way into the west end zone to give Glendora an early 7-0 lead.
Shortly thereafter, Coronado recovered a loose ball while on defense, and he sprinted in for a 40-yard TD, and a 14-0 advantage for the boys in red.
Nazir McGlothen had TD runs of 2 and 22 yards.
And Tim Johnson caught a 25-yard TD pass from freshman, Sebastian Lawrence.
The Wolfpack finally got on the board in the third quarter.
Doug Yegge caught a 16-yard TD pass from Jerred Pocock.
Glendora sophomore, Brandon Coronado, made his presence felt with this stick of a Claremont receiver.
Nazir McGlothen carried the ball 10 times for 76 yards and the two scores.
Austin Coronado gained 17 yards on three carries, including the first TD of the game, and the Tartans senior also had the 40-yard strip-and-score.
Sebastian Lawrence was 6-of-14 for 97 yards and the TD to Johnson.
Johnson caught four passes for 74 yards, and that includes his TD catch and another long catch to set up a short McGlothen TD run.
Simon Zwick contributed 74 rushing yards on nine carries.
Up next: The Tartans travel to Los Osos next Friday.
The Grizzlies fell at Bonita, 34-20, on Thursday.
