Although it ended earlier than they would have liked, AHS had a remarkable first season.
They finished 19-9, including a second-place finish in the Palomares League standings.
Trailing 6-0, responded and tied the game at 6-6, when Brooklee Harris connected with Addison Gonzalez on a 4-yard TD pass.
After and interception by Amaryn Silva, the Bulldogs turned it into six points.
Delilah Reynaga’s 3-yard TD reception gave Ayala is first lead of the game at 12-6.

And the game was tied at 12-12.

Football: All-Baseline League: The last time Damien won a league championship, none of the current Spartans were more than three years old. It was 2009, and DHS shared the Sierra League title with Chino Hills. Both programs finished 4-1. Since joining the Baseline League back in 2014, DHS had never beaten Rancho Cucamonga. In fact, […]

Trailing by two at the break, the Bearcats outscored the Saints, 31-23, in the second half to pull away. Lexi Mercado scored 14 of her game-high 26 points in the second […]

And such was the case on Monday evening for Dr. Tim Godley. Bonita is nearing the .500 mark after Monday’s 57-33 victory over San […]

The marquee final had to be state qualifiers, Jacob Bell of Etiwanda versus Bonita Tristan Fernandez in the 150-pound title tilt. Fernandez defeated Bell, 15-10. Etiwanda finished second as a program, but they did not have […]
Boys Basketball: Pasadena crushed Muir on Saturday night. Oddly enough, it wasn’t considered a Pacific League contest. For some reason, every Pacific League competitor except for PHS voted to only play one game a year versus the other. So, Muir and Pasadena scheduled this nonseason clash to give each other a home game. PHS went […]
Girls Basketball: As odd as it might seem to read, Pasadena’s 56-41 victory over their visitors from Muir was not a Pacific League contest. The new and lame new league set up has everyone just playing one time each, so MHS and PHS had to schedule a nonleague showdown. And that took place on Saturday […]
