Boron is set to face off against El Monte in a playoff match this Friday at 7:00 PM. El Monte will need to watch out since Boron has posted big point totals in its previous three matchups.
Boron extended its back-to-back wins into a three-game streak in its previous match. The final score between it and Desert Christian last week was a 48 - 6 blowout in Boron's favor. Senior running back Laron Cherry deserves a lot of the credit as he ran for 167 yards and also punched in three touchdowns. This marked the 3rd consecutive game in which Cherry had 100+ rushing yards.
As for El Monte, it brought the heat last game after its low-scoring effort (zero points) in the match before. It came out on top in a nail-biter against Rosemead two weeks ago, sneaking past 33 - 30. Senior wide receiver Saul Chavez had a nice 115-yard performance that was surely well-received by fans. Chavez was also active on the defensive end with an imposing 13 tackles.
Their wins bumped El Monte to 6-4 and Boron to 7-3. Its offensive line will need to gear up for a tough test against a Boron defense that got three sacks against Desert Christian last week. We'll see if it is up to the challenge.
