The La Costa Canyon Mavericks will face off against the Del Norte Nighthawks at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Both come into the game bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
While Mavericks fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Friday's season opener. They claimed a resounding 37-10 win over St. Augustine on the road. The victory was some much needed relief for the Mavericks as it spelled an end to their five-game losing streak dating back to last season.
La Costa Canyon can attribute much of their success to Quinn Roth, who threw for 255 yards and four touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes, and Coby Herman, who gained 198 total yards and two touchdowns. Jackson Maggiore also helped out as he racked up 101 receiving yards.
Meanwhile, Del Norte earned a 20-7 win over Point Loma on Friday.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Del Norte to victory, but perhaps none more so than Diesel Taylor, who threw for 190 yards and a touchdown while completing 75% of his passes, and also punched in a rushing score. Anthony Taylor did his part to keep the secondary busy, picking up 96 receiving yards.
La Costa Canyon strolled past Del Norte when the teams last played back in August of 2023 by a score of 28-13. The rematch might be a little tougher for La Costa Canyon since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
