Moorpark Guns for 1st Undefeated Season : College football: Raiders face Bakersfield in the Potato Bowl. Antelope Valley takes on Glendale in the WSC Bowl.

Moorpark College tries today to post the only undefeated season in 25 years of football at the school, taking on Bakersfield College in the 41st Potato Bowl at Bakersfield’s Memorial Stadium.

In another junior college bowl game today, Antelope Valley clashes with Glendale in the Western State Conference Bowl at Glendale College.

Only a 10-10 tie with Bakersfield on Oct. 17 mars Moorpark’s record. The Raiders finished the regular season with a 9-0-1 mark, including an 8-0-1 record to win the Western State Conference championship and a 5-0 record to win the conference’s Northern Division title.

Moorpark won the WSC title Nov. 21 with a 49-32 victory over Glendale.

Fullback Gil Carrillo leads Moorpark on offense.

The 22-year-old freshman, who was on the track team at Moorpark in 1989 and 1990 and the track team at Cal State Northridge for the past two seasons, was named the WSC’s Northern Division offensive player of the year earlier in the week.

The 195-pound Carrillo has rushed 135 times for 1,103 yards and 14 touchdowns. In the victory over Glendale he had four touchdowns, one spanning 80 yards, another 52.

Moorpark also boasts the state’s leading junior college defense. The Raiders held their opponents to only 184.4 yards and 10.6 points per game.

Bakersfield (8-1-1, 7-1-1 in the WSC) won the WSC’s Southern Division title with a 5-0 record.

The Renegades lost to Glendale, 41-16, in the fourth game of the season.

They are led by running back Angus Sumlin, who has rushed for 900 yards and 11 touchdowns, and quarterback Carl Dean, who has completed nearly 60% of his passes for 1,384 yards and 13 touchdowns.

At Glendale College, Antelope Valley seeks a victory to cap a season in which it lost consecutive games to San Bernardino Valley and Desert. The Marauders have won three in a row since that second loss, however, and finished in a tie for second place in the Foothill Conference.

Antelope Valley (7-2-1, 6-2 in the conference) is led by running back Lamart Cooper.

Glendale (8-2, 7-2) features a balanced attack led by running back Pathon Rucker, who rushed for 227 yards--including a 70-yard touchdown run--against Moorpark on Nov. 21, and quarterback Eric Kiesau.

“They average over 40 points per game,” Antelope Valley Coach Brent Carder said of Glendale.

“They average over 200 yards rushing and 200 yards passing. You don’t need to go much further than that in seeing how good a team they are.”
