Last Friday, Cajon made easy work of Newport Harbor and carried off a 41-21 victory. Given the Cowboys' advantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 39th, while the Sailors are ranked 188th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask San Jacinto). They put the hurt on Rancho Verde with a sharp 55-35 win on Thursday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest victory of the season.

A healthy portion of that aerial production (116 yards to be exact) went to Daishaun Davis, who also brought in a receiving touchdown.
