"We expected to play this way," said SNYDER (five solo tackles, four assists), a senior linebacker. "If we execute, it will happen." Another San Diegan making it happen was STANFORD freshman running back TYLER GAFFNEY. GAFFNEY, a former CATHEDRAL CATHOLIC DON, finished with six carries for 23 yards and one reception for 17 yards. Meanwhile, WASHINGTON freshman wide receiver JAMES JOHNSON (VALLEY CENTER HIGH) caught three passes for 37 yards for the HUSKIES.

The University City (UC) Centurions suffered a tough 34-7 loss to the Serra Conquistadors in a Western League football game at Serra on Friday, October 16. “A lot of good things are happening for our guys,” said UC coach John Hutsel. “Now, we need to get it to reflect in the win-loss column and have it show up on the scoreboard.” Against the Conquistadors, the Centurions actually did get on the scoreboard first with a 70-yard drive on the opening possession of the game. That’s when junior running back Parris Jordan jolted Serra with a 12-yard touchdown run to give UC an early 7-0 lead with 9:26 left in the first quarter. Jordan had four carries for 66 yards on the drive, including a nice 51-yard run to bring the ball down to the Conquistador 15-yard line. “It’s a process,” said Hutsel. “We just have to keep competing.” The Centurions started to show signs of wanting to compete by stuffing kick returner Blake Bailey at the Serra 1-yard line and holding the Conquistadors to three pla
