JJ Bittner's Big Game Leads Rio Mesa over Westlake

Smigiel Posts Huge Game in 35-6 Win

Santa Barbara had no answer to Smigiel as he threw for 195 yards and three touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes. Smigiel is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
Newbury Park pushed their record up to 6-0 with the victory, which was their fifth straight on the road dating back to last season. Smigiel and Newbury Park will be staying on the road on Thursday to face off against Calabasas at 7:00 p.m.

Tyler Stromsoe Turns in Season-Best Effort

Gamescore: 23.80
Isaiah Bautista Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Isaiah Bautista posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Saturday. He rushed for 127 yards and a touchdown.
Bautista and Rio Mesa will take on Santa Barbara at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Spartans had to take a loss when they last met the Dons, but Bautista had little to do with the loss: he rushed for 64 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
