Flag Football:
What a way to open a new sport.
The Bonita flag football program dropped the hammer on their hosts from Don Lugo.
The Bearcats took a 26-point lead into the break and cruised to a 47-0 victory over the Conquistadors.
BHS quarterback Tressa Beatty led the Bearcats with four total TD’s on Tuesday night.
The Bearcats junior tossed three TD passes, and she picked off her Don Lugo counterpart and ran in back for another score.
Kody McKinney led the rushing attack with 44 yards on the ground, including one TD.
Simone Washington caught a deep ball down the middle from Beatty, and she’s responsible for scoring the first ever Bonita flag football touchdown on the first offensive possession of the game.
Jenna Campbell also had a pick-six for the Bearcats.
Freshman Laney Sweeney caught two passes for BHS, including a first-half TD.
Sophia Olivares and Leah Reynolds both had interceptions.
The Bonita offense accounted for 324 yards of total offense.

Quotable:
Bonita coach, Mike Mann: “We executed what we’ve been working on. We were focused on being the best version of ourselves. Tressa just has a really high IQ. She understands what we’re trying to do as a collective unit. She makes really good decisions. Tressa was born to play football, and no one will be able to tell me otherwise. Defensively, we attacked the quarterback quickly and didn’t give her a lot of time to make decisions. We consistently put ourselves in a good position to pull flags after a completed pass. There are going to be a lot of firsts and tonight we focused on getting the first win in school history.”
Up next: Bonita will host Sierra Vista tonight (Wednesday) at 7:15.

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 […]
Photos by Camryn Van Valkenburgh Boys Basketball: If there was ever a school to beat to make a milestone more special for a Bonita coach, it would certainly be San Dimas. 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 […]
Photos by Tim Lunney and game info/stats from Harry Joe Football: The magical and historic 2024 season has finally come to an end for the Rio Hondo Prep football program. Vanden stopped RHP running back Noah Penunuri just short of the goal line on a 2-point attempt in overtime to defeat RHP, 42-41, at Long […]

Glendora got off to a great start, outscoring Amat, 24-9, […]
