High school football: Sierra Canyon dominates Orange Lutheran

Lutheran coach Orange, Rod Sherman, has known Jon Ellinghouse for a long time.

Before facing Sierra Canyon Thursday evening at the Orange Coast College, Sherman said that it would not be disturbing to say directly to the trailblazers coach that he thought that the Ellinghouse team was the best he had seen the school products.

After the n ° 2 Sierra Canyon dismantled n ° 7 Orange Lutheran 41-9, Sherman was certain.

“No doubt,” he said.

Eric Sondheimer, sports columnist at Times high school, nicknamed the teeming and contradictory defense of the pioneers “Kaboom Squad” – a power, speed and superhero IQ.

How to stop a defensive front like Sierra Canyon?

Orange Lutheran (3-2) still was looking for an answer in Aigy’s consequences from a stifling loss which included 10 plated for loss and six bags.

“There were incredible special parts on the defensive,” said Ellinghouse after Sierra Canyon improved at 5-0.

The defensive back junior Madden Riordan sealed the match with an interception. Senior Defensive Line Player Mikhal Johnson recorded two bags. The defensive junior platform Kasi Currie had two plated for the loss and an interception over a period of four games in the second quarter.

The trailblazers shouted in the third trimester when the Senior Trey Brown defensive back slipped for a booming bag.

“Everyone was a media threshing for me,” said Brown.

It was relentless. The throws only made five passes out of 17 attempts.

The senior defensive howl Richard Wesley in the middle of the post-match group said everything.

“I am happy”, Wesley – who claimed a bag itself – roared, extending the “Y” to put the accent.

Do not let the dashboard be wrong; It could have been an orange goose egg – so much so that Ellinghouse said that he considered the game as a laundering.

The Trailblazers began their first journey with an interception of Pass for the Kiingbaraka Kizzee, the defensive back of the first year of throws – calmed in the red zone and contenting itself with a goal on the field – and ended the first half with a goal on the blocked field and a return of touch of 71 yards of the Junior Matthew Zapien.

None of the scores of the throws came from a regular journey. On the other hand, the trailblazers marked with ease.

Ellinghouse described a round, double reversion leading to Sierra Canyon, Laird Finkel’s Senior Arrière, finding the great man Brayden Tautolo in the goals area for a touch of eight yards to do it 14-3 in the first quarter.

After an orange three-and-out Lutheran, the defensive back of the state of Louisiana, the Havon Finney Jr. file he did not drop.

Sierra Canyon’s junior ball carrier, Jaxsen Stokes, scored on a 16 yards race in addition to a pair of three yards touched. Even Wesley contributed to the attack with a reception of 16 yards.

A big question remains.

After dominant victories against Jserra, Oaks Christian and Downey, as well as Punahou (Hawaii) – to a differential of total points of 233–16 – what prevents Sierra Canyon from challenging Dei, St. John Bosco and others to Southern Division 1 Crown?

Ellinghouse is ready to see if his team has what it takes to dominate in the game of the League mission.

And his players too.

“Me and my teammates looked at this centenary mater dei against Corona – we just thought of ourselves, why not us this year?” Said Currie. “We are going to win this year. I believe that; I say we are going to win this year. ”
