Victor Mendez shone in the City Section football title game, rushing for 176 yards and scoring three touchdowns which secured Panorama’s first championship since the school opened in 2006.
Mendez expressed his determination saying, 'I kind of wanted the ball and every time I got it I tried to put it in. I worked too hard not to give it everything I had.'
Coach Adrian Beltran celebrated the victory by raising the trophy and handing it to his players, marking a historic moment for the Pythons who had previously faced losses in finals.
Van Nuys attempted a comeback led by Carlos Herrera, who contributed with a touchdown pass and two rushing touchdowns, but ultimately fell short in the championship game.
