Week 7 By
The Numbers
|
| 278 |
Penalty bug: Santa Cruz
committed 28 penalties for 278 penalty yards in their last two games,
but both games resulted in Cardinal wins. In the two preceding games in
which Santa Cruz went 0-2, the Cardinals committed only 7 penalties for
37 yards. |
| 221 |
In his first 5
varsity games, Seaside defensive standout Henry Utumapu had just 2
carries for 3 yards. In his last 2 games, Utumapu has 28 carries for 221
yards. The punishing sophomore with a major-college physique may already
be the top all-around player in the quad-league area. |
| 110 |
Watsonville
running back Shawn Benjamin has individually scored more points (110)
this season than nine quad-league area teams. |
| 65 |
Last season
Palma limited Salinas to 34 plays while executing 61 themselves en rout
to a 26-19 victory over the Cowboys. In a role reversal on the field and
scoreboard, Salinas ran 65 plays Friday night, limiting Palma to
a 3+ year low 30 offensive plays while handing the Chieftains a 24-13
loss. |
| 4 |
Salinas
defensive back Travis Dozier intercepted 4 passes in the Cowboy's
24-13 victory over Palma. |
| 2 |
SLV Tight End
Waylon Prather caught 2 passes in a 26-7 victory over Soquel.
What makes this impressive? Both catches went for long touchdowns, as
Prather finished with a monster 101 yards and 2 touchdowns (47 and 54
yards) on just 2 catches. |
| 0 |
Carmel has now allowed 0
first quarter points through 7 games, and has still allowed only 8 points this
year in the first half. |
| 0 |
Alisal has
scored 0
first quarter points through 7 games. But the Trojans are quickly
becoming masters of the second half, having overcome 14 and 27 point
deficits to win two of their last three games. |
