Last Saturday, even if it wasn't a dominant performance, Hart beat Sylmar 19-13. Given the Hawks' advantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 181st, while the Spartans are ranked 380th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Hart to victory, but perhaps none more so than Natalie Williams, who picked up 75 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Gianna Costello also helped out with an impressive 81 receiving yards.
Hart's defense was in the mix too, especially the secondary: they snagged two passes before it was all said and done. The picks came courtesy of Nathalia Raio and Bella Costello.

Hart has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won seven of their last eight contests, which provided a nice bump to their 11-4 record this season. As for Vasquez, their defeat dropped their record down to 3-7.
