With the end of the high school football regular season in sight, La Jolla\u2019s three teams are trying to improve their positions for possible postseason runs.<\/p>\n
The Bishop\u2019s School and La Jolla High helped themselves with victories, while La Jolla Country Day wasn\u2019t as fortunate.<\/p>\n
Bishop\u2019s 35, Escondido Charter 0<\/p>\n
The Knights kept rolling, posting their third consecutive dominant shutout victory by blowing out Escondido Charter at La Jolla High School on Oct. 18.<\/p>\n
Bishop\u2019s boosted its record to 7-1 as the Tigers fell to 2-6.<\/p>\n
The Knights have won their past three games by a combined 137-0.<\/p>\n
They\u2019ll round out the regular season with two big Coastal League games, first at Army-Navy Academy of Carlsbad (6-1) at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 24, and at Santa Fe Christian of Solana Beach (currently 9-0) at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 31.<\/p>\n
La Jolla High 36, San Diego High 33<\/p>\n
The Vikings came up with a much-needed home win over Eastern League rival San Diego, improving their season record to 5-3 as they bounced back from the previous week\u2019s 54-3 loss to Lincoln, the top-ranked team in the CIF San Diego Section.<\/p>\n
In the Oct. 17 match-up against San Diego, the Vikings had just enough to outlast the Cavers as Emerson Rota threw a 33-yard touchdown pass to Nicolas Bardaro with less than a minute left. Bardaro also had a TD run and Aiden Farrell rushed for 202 yards and a pair of TDs while picking up 8.1 yards per carry.<\/p>\n
Coming up next for La Jolla is a visit to league opponent St. Augustine of San Diego (3-5) at 7 p.m. Oct. 24.<\/p>\n
Santa Fe Christian 42, La Jolla Country Day 7<\/strong><\/p>\n It started with a bang for Country Day as quarterback Jett Astephan hit Hesh Hertz for a long touchdown.<\/p>\n What at the time appeared to be a spark for the Torreys ultimately served as a footnote in what ended up being a\u00a0 blowout victory for Santa Fe Christian on Country Day\u2019s home field Oct. 17.<\/p>\n The win pushed the Eagles\u2019 record to 9-0 while dropping the Torreys to 3-5 overall and 1-2 in Coastal League play.<\/p>\n La Jolla Country Day next will take on Classical Academy of Escondido (2-6) at 7 p.m. Oct. 24.<\/p>\n \u2014 Writer Clark Fahrenthold contributed to this report. \u2666<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With the end of the high school football regular season in sight, La Jolla\u2019s three teams are trying…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":316976,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5134],"tags":[5229,1582,276,7354,101826,3549,7264,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-316975","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-diego","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-ca","10":"tag-california","11":"tag-la-jolla-light","12":"tag-la-jolla-light-sports","13":"tag-san-diego","14":"tag-sandiego","15":"tag-united-states","16":"tag-united-states-of-america","17":"tag-unitedstates","18":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","19":"tag-us","20":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115403064971707220","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/316975","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=316975"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/316975\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/316976"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=316975"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=316975"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=316975"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
