It was a BEAUTIFUL day to be outside enjoying the grandkids' soccer/fútbol/calcio games in Camarillo and an 8-man American football game in Oxnard.
Jacob, #8, was a Scorpions Co-Captain
for today's game against the Strikers
He was extremely proud of this honor
and so were all of us
He hustled all game long
Scorpions running to the ball
A good effort today but a nil-nil halftime score turned into a 5-3 win for the Strikers.
I had to make a tough decision after Jacob's game, stay and watch Mary's game or drive over to Santa Clara H.S. in Oxnard to watch an old coaching buddy lead his Coast Union H.S. team in an 8-man game.
Laurie said she would cover Mary's game for us, so I was off the to beautiful downtown Oxnard.
The Coast Union Broncos
1-1 in 2021
at
The Santa Clara Saints
2-0 in 2021
Santa Clara QB on the move
The Santa Clara QB was
hard to bring down
The Coast Union DB actually
broke up this Saints pass
Broncos Offense
You can't quite see the third receiver to the left but this is a Trips Left, Trips Right formation that eventually led to a QB Sneak against a spread out Saints Defense.
Coast Union on Offense
The BIG C.U. QB rumbling . . .
. . . to a TD!
A big win for Coast Union,
58-26 was the Final Score
Broncos celebrating with their fanbase
Cambria is about a three hour drive from Oxnard, so these Bronco fans are the epitome of die-hards.
With Coach Charlie Casale
Charlie is one of the really good guys that I've met over the many years. I first met him in the Spring of 1979 when he was the coach of Visalia's Mt. Whitney H.S.
In 1978 his Pioneers were the Central Section's Champions with a 13-0 record and, in pre-state playoff days, proclaimed the California State Champions.
Meanwhile, back at Mary's
Rainbow Butterflies game . . .

Once a game Mary surprises
Ref Mike with a hug
Go get it Mary!
Interesting kick
She had fun even though the
Grasshoppers dominated the game
The Washington Huskies (1-2)
defeated the Arkansas State
Red Wolves (1-2)
The Huskies host the California Golden Bears (1-2) next Saturday in their PAC-12 opener.
GO HUSKIES!
