Vista Del Lago Comes Up Short Despite Huge Game from Underclassman Josiah Dupree Boyd
Underclassman Josiah Dupree Boyd came into Thursday's matchup looking to prove himself and that's exactly what he did. Orange Vista had no answer to Dupree Boyd on Thursday as he rushed for 121 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries, and also threw for 163 yards and two touchdowns. Dupree Boyd's longest rush was for an impressive 56 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Vista del Lago's defeat ended a three-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 6-2. Dupree Boyd and Vista del Lago will take on Paloma Valley at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Fabian Bolanos Makes It Two for Vista Del Lago
The second Vista del Lago player making an appearance here is Fabian Bolanos, and for good reason. He picked up 55 receiving yards and a touchdown.
