"Unbelievable," said Joe Smigiel, who took over the program in 2022 and built it into a championship team with the help of his 6-foot-5 son, Brady, who completed 14 of 21 passes for 300 yards and two touchdowns while rushing for 60 yards and one touchdown on Saturday night.
"Team, team, team. That's what we say," Joe Smigiel said. It was a team effort to come back from an early 14-0 deficit.
Drew Cofield caught touchdown passes of 27 and 66 yards and came through with the game's biggest play, stripping the ball from Murrieta Valley running back Dorian Hoze just before he reached the end zone on a 55-yard run early in the fourth quarter, resulting in a Newbury Park touchback instead of a Murrieta Valley touchdown.
It was a frustrating moment for Hoze, who rushed for 254 yards in 29 carries and scored four touchdowns.
