Flag Football Game Preview: La Joya Community Fighting Lobos vs. Alhambra Lions

The La Joya Community Fighting Lobos are headed away from home for the first time to face off against the Alhambra Lions at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Neither La Joya Community nor Alhambra posted many points in their last games, so it might be the defenses that decide this one.

La Joya Community is leaving town to face Alhambra after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. The Fighting Lobos took a 12-6 hit to the loss column at the hands of Ironwood last Thursday. Sadly, the defeat continues a streak the team started last season, making it five in a row.

La Joya Community didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off three passes before the game was over. The picks came courtesy of Kaley Velazquez and Ashley Radilla Luna. Velazquez got in on the action too, converting a pick into a touchdown.

Meanwhile, Alhambra was just a hair shy of victory on Thursday and fell 12-11 to Youngker.
