Williams 50 – Quincy 14
In its last Mid-Valley League game of the season, the Yellowjackets took out their frustration at having lost its previous two contests by blowing out visiting Quincy at McCarl Field last Friday night.
Scoring 44 of its points in the first half, the game was essentially over by intermission on a night when Williams rolled up 581 yards of total offense.
Azael Velazquez returned to form carrying 20 times for 292 yards and three touchdowns before taking the second half off, while Giovanni Luna had his best night carrying the ball finishing with 142 yards and two scores on just eight totes.
Moises Vargas led the defensive effort with eight tackles including five for losses to go along with a blocked punt, while Ricardo Medina also ended the game with eight tackles.
Luna intercepted a pass as did JV call-up Emiliano Esparza, who recorded a pick six in his varsity debut.
Williams (7-3, 4-2) now enters its bye week and awaits its playoff fate.
Maxwell 20 – Biggs 19
Finding itself behind at home the Panthers got a lift when Louis Minutti returned a punt to tie the game then kicked the extra point to put Maxwell on top, leaving the defense to hold off the Wolverines and preserve the win.
Minutti was a huge part of the victory as he additionally hauled in two passes from quarterback Vincent Orzoco to account for Maxwell’s other two scores.
Landon Barrett also made important contributions, collecting a team-high 14 tackles, then made three receptions for 40 yards as well, while Lucas Bowen finished with 11 tackles and 42 yards rushing.
After knocking off Biggs, this week Maxwell (6-3, 3-2) looks to do the same in Los Molinos where they close out the regular season against the first place Bulldogs who have lost just once this year.
