Sunnyside running back Jovan Stevenson was too much for the
Flowing Wells defense during the first half of the Blue
Devils' victory Friday night. Stevenson carried the ball six
times and finished with an astounding 210 yards. To make
matters worse for the host Caballeros, those six carries came
in the first half as Stevenson didn't line up in the backfield
after the half.
The Blue Devils (6-2, 3-0 5A Southern Region) jumped out to a
35-0 halftime lead against Flowing Wells (1-7, 1-2) on
Stevenson's three scores and a 49-yard TD run by Alex Leon.
Patrick Medina hauled in a Sammy Olivas 2-yard TD toss to put
the game out of reach.
Manny Aguilar capped a 57-second Blue Devils' drive with a
7-yard TD run on their first possession of the third. The
score put Sunnyside ahead 42-0. Aguilar scored again on a
62-yard TD run during the Blue Devils' next possession.
Marques Laverty added a 9-yard TD run to complete the scoring.
Highlight reel: Stevenson scored on runs of 70, 42 and
77 yards in the first half.
Player of the game: Stevenson's six carries for 210
yards in only two quarters overwhelmed the Flowing Wells
defense.
By the numbers: 3. Sunnyside running backs who rushed
for more than 100 yards: Stevenson (210), Aguilar (125) and
Leon (101).
He said it: "We weren't disciplined tonight. We played
one good quarter, but we fell apart." — Caballeros coach Mario
Piña.
