Lathrop is a perfect 3-0 against Beyer since September of 2024 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Wednesday. The Spartans will venture away from home to challenge the Patriots at 5:00 p.m. Lathrop will be strutting in after a win while Beyer will be coming in after a loss.
Beyer will be up against a hot Lathrop team: the squad just extended their winning streak to three. The Spartans came out on top against Central Valley by a score of 19-12 on Monday. Given the Spartans' advantage in MaxPreps' California flag football rankings (they are ranked 168th, while the Hawks are ranked 343rd) , the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Lathrop got their victory on the backs of several key players, but it was JaLeiyah Ray out in front who rushed for 70 yards and one touchdown on only five carries. Ray's longest rush was for an impressive 55 yards, which helps to explain her lofty yards per carry total.
Lathrop didn't let much get past them through the air: they limited Central Valley to a completion percentage of just 45.5%. The team can thank Morgan Hegler for the heroic effort on defense: she. Lathrop 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.
Meanwhile, Beyer came up short against Ceres on Monday and fell 24-15. The defeat continues a trend for the Patriots in their meetings with the Bulldogs: they've now lost four in a row.
Beyer's loss dropped their record down to 9-8. As for Lathrop, their record is now 16-3.
Wednesday's matchup will pit two of the most dominant backs against one another: Ray and Gabriella Garcia. Ray just won't slow down this season and has run in 7 touchdowns while averaging 42.8 rushing yards per game. Garcia has been a dominant force too and has averaged 13.6 rushing yards per game.
Lathrop strolled past Beyer when the teams last played back in September by a score of 32-13. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Spartans since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
