A Camarillo Frosh Football Game and Another Dodgers Win


Thursday, October 16, 2025
The agenda called for another Camarillo H.S. Frosh football Marmonte League game with family friend Debi Murphy in tow to watch her grandson Holtz play.

In the morning we received a nice photo of Jacob taken by the Gray team's photographer at last Saturday's Camarillo Stingers Senior Night Ceremonies.

So proud of this young man

On to the game which looked to be a good one if Camarillo could overcome a season ending injury to their starting QB on the opening drive of last week's loss to Simi Valley.

By the way, this would be the 50th flag or tackle football game that I have attended in calendar year 2025, first in Spain last Winter and now in California this Fall. 

Pacifica H.S. Tritons Frosh
8 Wins - 0 Losses

at

Camarillo H.S. Scorpions Frosh
7 Wins - 1 Loss

The Captains met at midfield . . .

. . . we honored our nation's colors . . .

. . . and then the game started

It was apparent quickly that Pacifica
had two explosive Offensive players

End of the First Quarter
Pacifica - 18
Camarillo - 0

Unfortunately, the Scorpions' Offense
was struggling once inside the Red Zone

Halftime Score
Pacifica - 18
Camarillo - 0

The Tritons kept the pressure
on in the Second Half

End of the Third Quarter
Pacifica - 32
Camarillo - 0

As the game wore on, it was apparent
that Pacifica simply had the better team

Final Score
Pacifica (9-0) - 38
Camarillo (7-2) - 0

The Frosh Scorpions will play their final game of the 2025 season next Thursday at home vs. the Dos Pueblos H.S. Chargers (1-3-1).

While we were sitting high above the field at Camarillo H.S., the Los Angeles Dodgers were at home playing in the third game of the National League Championship Series with a 2-0 lead in this Best of Seven affair.

Make that a 3-0 lead!

One more win to a slot
in the World Series!

8 Wins Down, 5 Wins to Go
for a repeat World Series Crown

I was happy to see Jacob running
good, crisp routes in 7-on-7 tonight

Because of the rain earlier this week, the Stingers were not allowed to practice on the park fields until tonight.

Huskies (5-1) at Wolverines (4-2)
at 9:00 a.m. Pacific on Saturday

$49 USD each for two seats?

When I checked on tickets to the Washington at Michigan game in the second game of the 2021 season, the cheapest tickets were in the End Zone for $450 USD each.

A few losses can definitely change the supply and demand curve.

Speaking of Supply and Demand, and I
thought that Texas was Football CRAZY?

Granted, this FBS DI game was played on Wednesday with a 1-5 UTEP team visiting 0-6 Sam Houston in a Conference USA skirmish but still, only 671 people in attendance?

UCLA crowds look much better through this Texas prism.

By the way, UTEP (2-6, 1-2 CUSA) beat Sam Houston (0-7, 0-4 CUSA).

We may have had more people at the Camarillo Frosh game today.

On Sunday, in London's
iconic Wembley Stadium . . .

. . . the Los Angeles Rams (4-2) take on
the Jacksonville Jaguars (4-2) bright
and early at 6:30 a.m. Pacific time

Thoughts from the net . . .

I know people like this

GREAT point, I never thought
about it but it makes perfect sense!

Hmmm . . . .

Spain is never far from my mind

Such an interesting history and rich culture to cherish, I'm hooked.
