Nicholas Fonseca had another great game (as he tends to do), rushing for 192 yards and two TDs on only 12 carries, while also picking up 84 receiving yards. His longest rush was for an incredible 88 yards. South Gate also got a significant boost from Nicholas Quintanilla, who ran away from the competition to the tune of 89 yards.
They were just one part of a punishing run game: South Gate was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 277 rushing yards. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 97.1 rushing yards per game earlier this season, but in their last five matchups they've averaged 208.7.
On the other side of the ball, a lot of the credit has to go to South Gate's defense and their seven sacks. Leo Ramirez refused to say out of the backfield, picking up four sacks all by himself.
