Football Recap: James Lick Falls to American in First Game of Season + How To Watch

James Lick unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They had to suffer through a 42-0 loss at the hands of the American Eagles. Sadly, the defeat continues a streak the team started last season, making it ten in a row.

Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead American to victory, but perhaps none more so than Jordan Garcia, who rushed for 103 yards and three TDs on only six carries. Garcia also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making five total tackles. Jayden Martinez also helped with two touchdowns in total.

Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. James Lick will host Monta Vista at 7:15 p.m. on Thursday. As for American, they will look to defend their home field on Friday against Kennedy at 7:00 p.m.
