Mustangs Too Much For Falcons
By Earle Story and J. Facey
Falcon turnovers and a near flawless offensive performance by Mira Costa added up to an impressive 51-27 win for the host Mustangs.
The Mustangs scored on a 5 yard touchdown run and led 7-0 at the end of the first quarter. They went up 14-0 on a fifty yard pass before Palmdale responded with a 2 yard touchdown run but the missed the extra point left them down 14-6. Mira Costa then scored on a 14 yard touchdown pass and has now added a field goal to take a 23-6 lead at half time
Palmdale made things interesting early in the 2nd half. They recovered a fumble and Josh Shaw hit Vince Nielson with a 15 yard TD pass to make it 23-13. Shaw connected with Nielson again a few minutes later on a another 15 yarder to make it 23-20.
Mira Costa responded, deflating the Falcons' chance at a comeback. First, they scored on a 10 yard run to make it 30-20, and then the quickly added another score after Kyle Nunn intercepted Shaw and ran it to the two yard line. After the Mustangs punched it in from there they led 37-20.
Mira Costa added a one yard TD run on their next possesion to take a 44-20 lead but Palmdale responded as Shaw connected with Dave Richards on a 34 yard TD pass to close the gap to 44-27 with 9 minutes left in the game
Mira Costa scored once more on a 19 yard quarterback keeper up the middle to make it 51-27. Palmdale drove the length of the field on their last possesion of the game but stalled on the 9 yard line as time ran out.
Mira Costa Offense Near Perfect in 51-27 Win
