We made our first trip to
La Habra tonight to watch the Highlanders host
La Mirada.
It felt good to be on a field with real grass for the first game since we moved to Los Angeles for the start of
High School Football America - SoCal on
KLAC AM 570 Fox Sports Radio. Nothing wrong with turf, but it's hard to beat a natural grass field, in my opinion.
La Mirada improved to 2-0 on the season with an offensive explosion at the start of the game that saw the Matadores score four touchdowns in the first 12-minutes. After opening a 28-13 first quarter lead, the Matadores, ranked #1 in the CIF-SS Southeast Division, rolled to a 45-27 victory.
La Mirada put over 500 yards in total offense against La Habra's defense. The victory snaps La Habra's three-game win streak over its nearby rival.
The Matadores were led on offense by senior quarterback
Gerry Myres, who tossed three touchdown passes with no interceptions. 6-5 wide receiver
Dallis Shipp caught six balls for, two for scores. Running back
Johnny Hills had a big night with two touchdown runs and nearly 200 yards rushing.
La Mirada head coach
Mike Moschetti was a guest on our inaugural
High School Football America - SoCal radio show on
AM 570 Fox Sports LA. You can listen to that interview by
