The game ended by running the clock and the final score was 41-12. The Colts collided with a clash of the Titans.
“I think we played tough, we played together, we played with chemistry,” says Davis. “We played fast, we fought, and we played good.”
“It was a good way to go out because we kind of blew them out the water like I predicted earlier on Logan Live and at the rally,” says offensive guard, Jessy Mefford. “They suck pretty much. They were talking on Twitter, so we pretty much had to back it up.”
With only two games left of the season until NCS playoffs, Logan is now 6-2 for 2015-16.
“It’s kind of starting to hit me now as the season’s coming to an end,” says cornerback, Jamaria Young. “It’s getting kind of sad to me honestly.”
Logan has an away game against De La Salle on October 30, 2015 at 7 pm. The De La Salle Spartans are ranked #3 in California for high school football. The team would love your support by coming out and wearing your black and red attire.
