Brahma beat

Mark Gillman / Roundup

FOOTBALL:

The Brahma football team beat West LA College Saturday night at John Shepard Stadium, 42-38 in what was a fast paced, hard-hitting, physical game. Pierce chewed up a ton of yards on the ground against the smaller defensive front rushing for 238 yards on 40 carries. It was running by committee as Clinton Granger, Josh Johnson, Daniel Lopez, Kenny Davis, and Exavier Johnson all contributed at least 25 yards each on the ground. The quarterbacks (Granger and Johnson), weren’t only doing damage with their feet. The Brahma dual threat were a combined 21 of 36 for 298 yards, and 3 touchdowns through the air. Pierce is now 3-2 on the year, and the defense will look to rebound from what was a disappointing performance as they travel to Glendale next Saturday to take on the Vaqueros 6:00 p.m.

SOCCER:

Ranked no. 1 in southern California and no. 2 in the state, are still unbeaten, as they had wins at College of the Canyons (1-0), and at home over Valley College (8-0). During the Valley game, midfielder / forward, Ani Eishoei scored 3 times in a little over twenty minutes, and Erica Vangsness scored twice during the route. The Brahmas should challenge the top spot in the state as their schedule during league play will soften, making the possibility of an undefeated season much more likely.
