Jaguars fall to Cowboys, 14-6

The Mission Viejo Cowboys scored early in the first quarter on the

Jaguars to take a 6-0 lead. The PAT attempt was blocked by Joshua Perez.

The Jaguars responded on the ensuing possession, capped by a 35-yard

touchdown pass from Shane Webber to Viken Bitar. The PAT attempt failed

wih the score tied at 6-6.

The Jaguar defense lead by Eric Ceja, Justin Dawson, Eric Faamausili,

Andrew Schneider and Travis McNaughton kept the Cowboy offense at bay for

the remainder of the game with the other Cowboys’ score coming on an

interception.

The Jaguar offense was able to move on Cowboy defense with sustained

drives on the carries of Isaiah Romero and Bryan Schutte. The turning

point in the game came when the Jaguars fumbled on the Cowboy one-yard

line in the fourth quarter. The Jaguars fought to the end with Michael

Berber forcing a Cowboy fumble with 1:27 left in the game and no time

outs remaining. The Jaguars just fell short of getting the opportunity to

tie the score. The Jaguars travel to Huntington Beach next week to face

the Dolphins.

JAGUARS CLINIC BULLS ITS WAY PAST THE THE MATADORS, 25-6

The Jaguar offense took a smashmouth approach, controlling the front

line. Led by center Andy Palacios and linemen Paul Fernandez, Ryan

McNicol, Scott Rychlik and Nicco Boggio, who helped open up the running

attack led by Stephan Robb and Matt Empting who each had a touchdown.

The Jaguar Air Attack also came to life led by quarterback Bryce Blake

who passed for more than 100 yards, including a 45-yard touchdown pass to

Trenton Burns, which was made possible by a key block from Chris Martinez

to open up the lane for the touchdown.

The defense played the ultimate team game by getting contributions

from every position in order to hold the Matadors to less than 50 total

yards on offense.

JAGUARS CLINIC SQUEAK BY THE CHIEFS, 21-20.

The Jaguar offense came out in a roar led by quarterback Bryce Blake

and big runs by Matt Empting and Stephan Robb, and capped with a 20-yard

touchdown run by Trenton Burns, which put the Jaguars up, 7-0. The

Chiefs’ defense tightened, but so did the Jaguar defense. Blake came up

with a huge hit at the end of the second quarter, which caused a fumble

that Burns picked up and scampered 45 yards for the Jaguars’ second

touchdown.

Their third score was set by an interception by Matt James who

returned the ball 40 yards to the Chiefs’ 15-yard line. The offense took

over and Empting took the ball in from three yards out for the clincher.
