Domonick Ruiz Delivers Best Effort of Season
Sadly, Domonick Ruiz posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Corona del Sol over Mountain Pointe on Friday. Ruiz picked up 255 receiving yards and three touchdowns, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground. He didn't just play on offense: he also made eight total tackles and defended a pass.
Corona del Sol dropped their record down to 1-6 with the defeat, which was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season. Ruiz will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Brophy College Prep on Thursday.

Another Game with at Least Two Rushing Touchdowns from Case Vanden Bosch

The matchup was his third straight with two or more rushing touchdowns dating back to last season. His longest rush was for an impressive 51 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Brophy College Prep pushed their record up to 6-1 with the win, which was their sixth straight on the road dating back to last season. Vanden Bosch and Brophy College Prep will look to defend their home field on Thursday against Corona del Sol at 7:00 p.m.
