"There's no "five-star recruit." There's no 10.5 100 meters runner. There's no lineman bursting out of his uniform looking like the second coming of Aaron Donald. What the Griffins are doing under veteran coach Ray Fenton shows what can happen when a bunch of neighborhood kids have each other's backs and fuel themselves each week with the hunger to prove how good they are."
"The Griffins won their eighth consecutive game Thursday night at SoFi Stadium with a 41-22 triumph over Edison. Ibarra ran for 216 yards and two touchdowns. Quarterback Colin Creason had touchdown passes of 59 yards to Ashton Gogue and 74 yards to Beckham Hofland. The defense stopped Edison twice on fourth down in the third quarter to pull away. Edison quarterback Sam Thomson passed for 305 yards and two touchdowns. Sam Edmisten rushed for 163 yards and had two touchdowns."
Los Alamitos improved to 8-0 by combining neighborhood-bred teamwork, veteran coaching from Ray Fenton, and consistent execution on offense and defense. The Griffins rely on a brotherhood mentality, with running back Lenny Ibarra rushing for 216 yards and two touchdowns and quarterback Colin Creason connecting on 59- and 74-yard touchdown passes. Special teams blocked a 46-yard field-goal attempt that was returned 77 yards by Oscar Ocampo, setting up a late first-half touchdown. The defense adjusted after a slow start, stopping Edison twice on fourth down in the third quarter during a 20-0 run. Upcoming opponents include San Clemente and Mission Viejo.
