Firebaugh Gets a Boost from Ceja in 42-14 Victory
Firebaugh found a leader in Isaac Ceja as the team took down Avenal on Friday. Ceja was dynamite, rushing for 61 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries, while also throwing for 82 yards and two touchdowns.
Ceja and Firebaugh will face off against Dos Palos at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The Eagles had to take a loss when they last met the Broncos, but Ceja had little to do with the loss: he threw for 163 yards and a touchdown while completing 80% of his passes, and also rushed for 45 yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
