As La Jolla\u2019s three high school football teams head into their regular-season finales this week, The Bishop\u2019s School and La Jolla High School will try to rebound from tough losses, while La Jolla Country Day School aims to keep up its recent momentum.<\/p>\n
Army-Navy 28, Bishop\u2019s 21<\/p>\n
The Knights went into their Coastal League showdown at Army-Navy Academy of Carlsbad on Oct. 24 riding a three-game winning streak in which they had outscored opponents 137-0. If they could beat the Warriors and league rival Santa Fe Christian to cap the regular season, Bishop\u2019s could clinch the Coastal title.<\/p>\n
But those hopes were dashed with the defeat to Army-Navy, which improved its season record to 7-1 and league mark to 2-1. The Knights dropped to 7-2 on the season and 1-2 in league play.<\/p>\n
Quarterback Cash Herrera threw a pair of touchdown passes to Dane Larson for the Knights, and Loic Smedra returned a fumble for a TD.<\/p>\n
Santa Fe Christian of Solana Beach heads into its home matchup against Bishop\u2019s at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 31, with a 9-0 season record and 3-0 in league.<\/p>\n
St. Augustine 41, La Jolla High 35<\/p>\n
St. Augustine\u2019s Paisios Polamalu was too much for the Vikings, running for 316 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 10.9 yards per carry and catching a TD pass in the Saints\u2019 home victory Oct. 24.<\/p>\n
St. Augustine needed Polamalu\u2019s school-record rushing effort to overcome La Jolla receiver Carson Diehl\u2019s 13 pass receptions for 238 yards and four TDs from quarterback Emerson Rota.<\/p>\n
The Vikings (5-4 overall, 2-2 in the Eastern League) will wrap up the regular season on the road against Madison of San Diego (3-6) at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 30.<\/p>\n
La Jolla Country Day 35, Classical Academy 21<\/p>\n
Marvin Jones III threw for 68 yards and a touchdown, caught a touchdown pass and ran for another TD for Country Day as he also forced a fumble and made 11 tackles on defense in the Torreys\u2019 victory over Classical Academy at Orange Glen High School in Escondido on Oct. 23.<\/p>\n
Country Day also benefited from Jett Astephen\u2019s two TD passes, Quentin Cesaire\u2019s TD reception and 99-yard fumble return for a score and Darius Nwagbuo\u2019s three interceptions.<\/p>\n
The win was the Torreys\u2019 third in their past four games and boosted their season record to 4-5 and Coastal League mark to 2-2. Classical Academy fell to 2-7 overall.<\/p>\n
Country Day will conclude the regular season at home vs. Coastal Academy of Oceanside (8-1) at 7 p.m. Oct. 30.<\/p>\n
