Last Friday’s scrimmage at Brentwood went pretty well. The Junior Varsity started the afternoon off with great runs by Freshman’s Korey Stevens and William Wiggins. Quarterback Brook Meier had some great passes to Nathan Rhodes and Joey Canchola for big yards. Defensively Nick Stringer, Bryan Ferreira, Daniel McGrew and Chandler Pullen were making life difficult for the Eagles of Brentwood. Overall I was very pleased with how our boys played.

Varsity had two games, the first with Santa Clarita Christian and the second game with Brentwood. The varsity team has been plagued with not only low numbers but illness as well. I was also hoping to come out of the scrimmage unscathed but that didn’t happen either. We had some great runs from Senior Scott Barron, Junior Ethane Sunder and Sophomore Bubs Rogers. Our only touchdown cam against SCCHS on a short pass to Senior Devon Page from Jared Skaggs. Defensively we looked good, swarming to the ball, fighting for every tackle. At the end of the day we tied 7-7 with SCCHS and lost 0-14 to BHS.

We will learn from our mistakes and be a better team for it. It IS GOING to literally be the next man up. Coming into week one is going to be tough, two players out with serious illness and two banged up from last week. ALL of them starters…

We play the Hueneme Vikings Friday at 7:00pm! The Vikings have some size and some talent, we are looking forward to the challenge of trying to stay fresh with a handful of players. RANGER PRIDE will be in full force! WE are going to NEED you to BE AS LOUD as you can Friday night! Come out a support us! See you there!

GO RANGERS!
Coach Wigg
