Last Friday, Boron came up short against Del Oro and fell 27-20. That's two games in a row now that the Bobcats have lost by exactly seven points.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Chowchilla). They blew past Parlier, posting a 56-16 victory on the road. Given the Tribe's advantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 360th, while the Panthers are ranked 974th), the result on Friday wasn't entirely unexpected.
Davian Stephenson was his usual excellent self, rushing for 85 yards and two touchdowns, while also throwing for 92 yards and a touchdown on only seven passes. His longest rush was for an impressive 64 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total. Travis Selby also helped with two touchdowns in total.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Chowchilla was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 253 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 167 rushing yards in ten consecutive matchups dating back to last season.
Chowchilla'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 Daniel Chavez and Mister Mitchell.
Boron now has a losing record at 1-2. As for Chowchilla, they pushed their record up to 3-1 with that win, which was their sixth straight on the road dating back to last season.
