The Los Altos Eagles will head out to take on the Santa Clara Bruins at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Los Altos comes in still looking for their first win of the season.
Los Altos' offense might be in the hot seat on Thursday considering what happened against Terra Nova on Friday. They were dealt a 27-0 loss at the hands of the Tigers. While getting shut out isn't ideal, the Eagles haven't been shut out since back in August.
Los Altos' defeat shouldn't obscure the performances of Gavin Wu, who rushed for 103 yards, and Manny Contreras, who rushed for 58 yards on only six carries.
Meanwhile, it's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 56-6, which was the final score in Santa Clara's tilt against Woodside last Friday. While losing is never fun, the Bruins can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 879th, while the Wildcats are ranked 424th).
Santa Clara now has a losing record of 2-3. As for Los Altos, their loss dropped their record down to 0-5.
Los Altos didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Santa Clara when the teams last played back in November of 2024, but they still walked away with a 10-6 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Eagles since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
