Harbor College Breaks Scoreless Streak, 49-15

A visit from West Los Angeles College was probably the best thing that could have happened to Harbor College Saturday. After being shut out in the last three games, Harbor erupted for 36 unanswered points to hand the Oilers their 15th consecutive loss, a 49-15 thumping in their Western State Conference contest.

Harbor, 2-3 overall and 1-3 in the WSC, scored first on a three-yard Corey Henry run. That capped a drive that saw the Seahawks march 57 yards in nine plays. After a 40-yard second half kickoff return by Camaron Pitcher gave the Seahawks the ball on the Oiler 38, Bill Harris ran 30 yards, giving Harbor a first and goal at the West L.A. six. Perris Clark scored two plays later from three yards out. Harris’ two-point conversion run gave the Seahawks a 14-0 lead. Harbor went up 16-0 after the Oiler center snapped out of the end zone.

Harris scored the first of two touchdowns in the third quarter on a three-yard run, making the lead 23-0 after Jose Rocha’s kick. Clark got his second touchdown of the quarter on a one-yard run. Following an interception by Victor Dobbs, Harris scored on a one-yard run, building the lead to 36-0 at the end of three quarters.

Oiler quarterback Ruanda Manuel connected with Ken Cannon for a score from 20 yards out to break the shutout. Not to be outdone, Harbor quarterback Mike Seward hit Christian Capper running down the sideline for a 45-yard touchdown. Clifford Bulkhalter scored on a 37-yard gallop for Harbor, increasing the led to 49-8. The Oilers, who remain winless at 0-5, got their final score on a 29-yard pass completion to Joseph Stephens.
