Cajon is a perfect 10-0 against Redlands since October of 2015 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Friday. The Cowboys will be playing at home against the Terriers at 7:00 p.m. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Cajon has three straight victories, Redlands has four straight losses), but none of that matters once you're on the field.
Cajon is headed in fresh off scoring the most points they have all season. They blew past Redlands East Valley, posting a 54-0 win. The final result isn't all that surprising considering the Cowboys' considerable advantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 79th, while the Wildcats are ranked 461st).
Cajon got their victory on the backs of several key players, but it was Marcus Washington out in front who threw for 238 yards and three TDs while completing 72.7% of his passes, and also rushed for 38 yards. Jordan White was another key back, rushing for 98 yards and a pair of touchdowns on only 11 carries.
Cajon didn't let much get past them through the air: they limited Redlands East Valley to a completion percentage of just 46.2%. The team can thank Cole Imbriani for the heroic effort on defense: he. Cajon has been improving in that area: they had allowed a completion percentage of 0.59 earlier this season, but they've only allowed one of 0.59 in their last three games.
