2021 Week 8: Carlsbad Hangs On To No. 1.

It didn’t have much influence on John Maffei’s Union-Tribune Top 10 poll through Week 7, but the Carlsbad-Torrey Pines game, a last-second, 34-33 win for coach Thadd MacNeal’s unbeaten Lancers, rates as the game of the year and easily the best since the pandemic.

Sophomore quarterback Julian Sayin drove the Lancers 90 yards in the waning moments and connected with Josh Davis on a 12-yard pass for a game-winning, come-from-behind touchdown with 0.9 seconds remaining in the game.

Sayin completed 18 of 28 passes for 283 yards and three touchdowns in the victory.

Carlsbad remained at the top of the poll but Torrey Pines dropped from fifth to sixth.  The Falcons, it says here, should have risen in the poll.

OLD RIVALRY

One of the oldest will be observed tonight when San Diego visits Coronado. San Diego leads, 16-9, in a series that began in 1915.  Infrequent is the best way to describe their meetings.

The teams didn’t play from 1919-43 and from 1945-89.  Coronado has led with nine victories to eight since then, with other lapses.

Each is now aligned in the City League after being together in the Central League.

2021 Week 7: Carlsbad-Torrey Pines Possible Barn Burner

Carlsbad will be at  an interesting juncture as the regular season turns to the second half and the Lancers riding a 10-game winning streak.

At 5-0, duplicating its record in the pandemic 2020 campaign and 5-0 starts in 2013 and 2007, coach Thadd MacNeal’s team will try to become  6-0 for the first time since 2006 when it takes on Avocado League neighbor Torrey Pines Oct. 1.

The Falcons have won 17 of 26 games with the Lancers since 1975, but, although only about 17 miles and 20-25 minutes apart, the rivals were not always in the same league and would go years without playing.

Carlsbad won, 42-0, in 2020 and 42-7 in 2019.

The Lancers are first and have 13 No. 1 votes in the weekly The San Diego Union poll, but Cathedral, depite  thumpings by state powerhouses Corona Centennial and Concord de La Salle, still is getting love from the voters with 11 first-place votes.

Cal-Hi Sports ranks Carslbad 13th this week and Cathedral, despite the two losses, is 20th.

The clubs won’t meet unless they tangle in the Open Division playoffs. Torrey Pines, winner of 3 in a row since an opening, 28-14 loss to Cathedral and Cal-Hi Sports‘ 41st-ranked team this week, hopes to have a voice.

2021 Week 5: Cathedral Takes on Another Big One in North

Cathedral coach Sean Doyle, whose team fosters a we’ll-play-anyone-anytime-anywhere mantra, gets another test this week against perhaps the most honored team in Califoria prep history.

The Dons, recovering fast from their disaster in Week  2 at Corona Centennial, blitzed Helix, 52-0, last week and head North to play Concord de La Salle, which has a 4-0 record against San Diego Section teams and won more than 150 games in a row in the 1990’s-early 2000’s.

De La Salle had home-and-home contests against Rancho Buena Vista in 1995 and ’96 and La Costa Canyon in 2002 and ’03.

The Spartans defeated Craig Bell’s RBV Longhorns, 35-16, there in 1995 and 36-19 in 1996 here.

They defeated Darrin Brown’s La Costa Canyon Mavericks, 28-7 here in ’02 and 56-27 there in ’03.

De La Salle had a 318-game winning streak against Northern California squads broken last week when upset by Mountain View St. Francis, 31-28. It has victories of 52-16 over Stockton St. Mary’s and 68-6 over Elk Grove Monterey Trail.

Cathedral is ranked 10th in Calfornia by Cal-Hi Sports.  De La Salle is 11th.

LOW POINT FOR HIGHLANDERS

The 52-point loss to Cathedral was the most decisive in 68 years and 753 games for Helix, which was beaten by Hoover, 50-0, in 1953, the Highlanders’  third season.  The points equaled a 52-6 loss at Oxnard in the flu-epidemic 1957 season.

2021 Week 4: Let’s Hear It for Mabel O’Farrell

The school named for Mabel E. O’Farrell was created in 1957 and opened in 1959 as a junior high, became a School of Performing Arts, and now operates under the tony brand of “The O’Farrell Charter School.”

The Falcons got on the favored side of the scoreboard for the first time last week.

After 18 consecutive losses dating to its football debut in 2018, the Falcons defeated Whittier Christian at Whittier College, 24-12.

The same Whittier Christian that dispatched Coach Tim Baxter’s club, 35-7, in 2019.  The Falcons did not play in the 2020 season and they have moved on from being an Independent to the Pacific League.

The Falcons have a game this week against, gulp, San Diego High.

WHO WAS SHE?

Mabel E. O’Farrell was said to have been born around 1870 and was an early 20th century member of the San Diego County board of supervisors.  There is no online record of her serving in such a position.  According to her wikipedia, Mabel served on a committee charged with creating a detention home for wayward youth.

Not much else is known.

“I’m an O’Farrell fan already,” I wrote in 2018.  “One of its alumni was the late Rosie Hamlin, lead singer of Rosie and the Originals, who recorded a ‘sixties favorite, Angel Baby.

Angel Baby was a top 10 hit in January, 1961.

Rosie spent most of her high school years at Sweetwater but also had a cup of coffee at Mission Bay.

STATS

University City rolled on El Centro Southwest, 75-6, last week, tying the Centurions with seven other teams that have scored 75 points.  The total ranks 35th among 11-man squads on the all-time Top Team Scoring list, headlined by San Diego’s 130-7 destruction of Army-Navy in 1920.
U.C. broke its own record, made in a 69-13 rout of La Jolla Country Day in 2018.

2021 Week 3: Dons’ Loss Opens Door for Carlsbad

Not that they give a rip, but the Cathedral Dons’ 43-point, 57-14 defeat last week at Corona Centennial didn’t represent the worst loss in school history.

More decisive was a 45-point loss, 55-10 to Sacramento-area power Folsom in 2014. Almost as painful was another 43-point reversal, 56-13 to Marian in the 2003 San Diego Section playoffs.

Contributing to the misery was that the Dons had defeated the Huskies in San Diego, 44-41, in 2019.

On the devastation scale, 57-14 ranks close to Oceanside’s 68-7 loss to Folsom and El Capitan’s  35-28 defeat to Moraga Campolindo, after the Vaqueros blew a 21-point lead in the final seven and a half minutes, in state championship games on the same day in 2014.

The Dons have no time to grieve, playing at home this week in one of the Honor Bowl games against a another tough Southern Section team, Los Angeles Mission Hills Chaminade, which is 2-0 after victories of 48-17 over the Southern Section’s Westlake Village Oaks Christian and 49-7 over Lake Balboa Birmingham of the Los Angeles City Section.

Chaminade is ranked 13th in the state in this week’s Cal-Hi Sports poll and 29th, according to Max Preps.  The Eagles have a 38.0 Cal Preps.com rating.  See below for how San Diego teams rate.

QUICK KICKS

Cathedral hasn’t seen the last of Corona Centennial…the Huskies will play Chatsworth Sierra Canyon at Cathedral this week in one of the Honor Bowl games…Lincoln, down 21-3 at halftime, took the fight to Los Alamitos and had a chance to win but a pass was knocked down in the endzone on the last play…the Hornets, who lost, 21-17, struck for 495 yards against the Cal-Hi Sports No. 9-ranked Griffins…Roderick Robinson had 145 yards rushing and 1 touchdown and Nathan Azevedo caught 4 passes for 150 yards and 1 TD…Army-Navy and El Capitan are feeling chipper after their 2-0 starts, the first for the Cadets since 2013 and the first for El Cap since its 14-1 season in  2014…Hoover’s 30-14 win over El Cajon Valley broke a 15-game losing streak and was the Cardinals first since a 34-16 victory over Coronado in Week 9 of 2018…the Cardinals are 7-44 since the 2015 season, a stretch of misery comparable to a 7-46-1 slog from 1970-75…Calexico’s 60-6 destruction of Castle Park represented most points for the Bulldogs since a 65-0 blowout of neighboring Vincent Memorial in 2008….
