Don't let the score fool you!

The HHS Vikings suffered a setback Friday night in their loss to the La Jolla Country Day Torreys here at Birger Field.
The final score of 28-14 might appear to be a run-away victory for LJCD, but those of us at the game can tell you that it was anything but! The Vikings and Torreys were scoreless at the end of the 1st quarter and the Vikes only trailec by 6 going in to the half-time. The two touchdowns that finally put the game away for the Torreys came late in the game, as the result of two plays, one a tipped (almost intercepted) pass that was pulled down in the End Zone and one as the result of a huge run by La Jolla's premier running back.
Outside of two carries for LJCD, the Defense of HHS was rock solid all night. Our containment guys shut down almost everything that came around the end, and our middle was immovable.
Benji Angulo, Ethan Ming and Sammy Nelson all had standout moments on the offensive side, and overall it was an outstanding game. Don't let the score fool you, HHS played terrific football Friday night!
