Sadly, Alexa Randall posting her best game of the season wasn't enough to lead St. Francis over Del Oro on Thursday. Randall made five total tackles and defended two passes in addition to snagging an interception which she returned one-yard for a touchdown.
St. Francis is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 4-14. Randall and St. Francis will be playing at home against Whitney at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday.

The second Granite Bay player making an appearance here is Leilani Teaupa, and for good reason. She picked up 37 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 55 yards on only six carries.
