West Valley held a 14-12 lead late in the third quarter with the Cardinals driving for the go-ahead score. But a Cardinals' fumble gave West Valley the ball back and they punched it in. The teams traded scores throughout the fourth quarter and Corning could- n't get the stop they needed. Tyler McIntyre finished with 124 yards and three touchdowns. J.D. Whited had the other Corning score. Josh Bocker led West Valley with 103 yards, most of them coming in the first half. 2009: West Valley 27, Corning 34 — This was a thriller, decided on the final play of the game when the ball slipped through a West Valley player's fingertips in the end zone as time expired. Fontaine Richardson had three rushing touchdowns in the first half on his way to a 271-yard game as Corning got off to an early lead. The Cardinals were about to go up three scores when they fumbled and two plays later West Valley's Ronny Hampton connected with Jake Gibbins on a 93-yard touchdown pass. Corning turned the ball over again and all of a sudden the game was tied 20-20. A field possession battle ensued and Corning was aided by a strong performance from punter Marc Mason. Cameron Nye scored his second touchdown with 37 seconds left to lift Corning. 6:30 p.m. 7 p.m. 2008: Corning 7, West Valley 41— The Eagles outrushed Corning 322-145 and scored in every quarter on their way to the rout.

Both have history rich programs and both know how to run the ball. This Northern Athletic League opener is going to be a head-knocker plain and simple. The Eagles have been piling up the points in recent weeks, with 52 against Red Bluff and 78 the week before that. Running backs Josh Bocker, John Hollmer and Austin Clark can all beat and bruise defenses. However quarterback Luke Wright is also capable of throwing the ball. His primary options are possession receiver Hunter Dyche and deep threat Colton Strickland. West Valley switched to a 3-5 defense this year to take advantage of their deep linebacking group led by Austin Lobsinger. He gets plenty of help from Clark and Jesse Robbins. Forrist Parks is the one to watch on the defensive line. The Eagles have been very strong at stuffing the run this season. Corn- ing is hoping the return of Ezekiel Rodriguez from injury helps bolster their speed. Special teams played a big role in last year's game. Friday 7:30 p.m. Spartans Red Bluff Lassen Grizzlies Red Bluff: 0-5; last week lost to West Valley 52-28 Lassen: 2-3; last week beat Pleasant Valley 34-3 Last Year 2010: Lassen 34, Red Bluff 6 — Lassen's defensive line dominated the game racking up five sacks as Trevor Baum scored three touchdowns for the Grizzlies. Taylor Figgs made his first start at quarterback for Red Bluff, who was held to a lone Dillon Reid rushing touchdown. Grizzlies' Scouting Report Lassen might not be at the same level as their back-to-back Division 2 championship seasons, but don't let their 2-3 record fool you. This is still a strong team. After falling on the road to Shasta in their opener, the Griz- zlies lost to Chico and Foothill by a combined three points. Since then Lassen has rebounded for wins over Central Valley and Pleasant Valley. On offense it's all about Cameron Medic, who is averaging 9.64 yards per carry and has already racked up 935 yards on the ground and 13 touchdowns. When they pass the likely target will be Austin Marcum, who has 18 grabs for 215 yards. Matt Damm, David Vincondoa and Lane Harlan lead the Grizzlies' defense. Dalton North has five interceptions. The long road trip to Susanville can be a mental challenge for even the best teams. Warriors Mercy Happy Camp Indians Mercy: 1-3; 0-2 in North, last week lost to Butte Valley 64-18 Happy Camp: 2-2; 1-1 in North, last week beat Liberty Christian 30-28 Last Year Happy Camp 20, Mercy 56 — With a playoff spot on the line, the War- riors got the job done behind their strong running game. Mitchell Lopez rushed for 337 yards and Royce Crane had 123 more on the ground. Lopez hit Michael Uhalde on an 85-yard pass play. Uhalde also inter- cepted a pass on defense. Crane made two sacks and Nick Feser had one as well. Alejandro Guerrero recovered a fumble. Indians' Scouting Report It's been a tough second season for Mercy's 8-man football program, with their only win coming via forfeit. They'll have a good shot at picking up a victory on the field this week as they face a Happy Camp team who's 2-2 record may be inflated a bit. The Indians' victories came over a winless Pyramid Lake team and a 1-3 Liberty Christian squad. The Warriors began moving the ball better last week and will need to transfer that into touchdowns on the road. Spartans beat weather, Bobcats Friday 6 p.m. Friday 7:30 p.m. 5 3 2 1 Sports 1B Thursday October 6, 2011 Week 6 Football Preview Daily News photo by Rich Greene After lightning interrupted the first half,Wednesday, a rainbow shined on the Spartans' victory over the Paradise Bobcats. light. Paradise Red Bluff By RICHGREENE DN Sports Editor The match had a bit of every- thing: goals, rain, thunder, whistles and birds chirping, sun, lightning, a 1 2 goalie receiving a red card, even some rainbows. And the Spartans came out on the right end of a 2-1 scoreline. Erick Ascensio broke a 1-1 tie late in the first half when his hopeful shot from 18 yards out beat the Par- adise keeper to the near post. The lead would hold up through a lightning delay, through a dump- ing of rain and through a second half resumed under rainbows and sun- Red Bluff's opening goal came after Daniel Gonzalez dribbled through the Bobcats' defense. His starting and stopping style in the mud that was there before Wednes- day's rain ever came caused the Bobcats to overrun him. He then slid a pass to an unmarked Connor Ross a few yards in front of goal, who finished the play for the early advantage. Paradise struck back a few min- utes later, but it would prove to be the only time they got the better of the Spartans' defense. The Bobcats' goalie was sent off midway through the second half. A through ball had sprung Ross one- one-one with the goalie. Ross tried to chip the goalie, who was well beyond the 18-yard box but still decided to use his hands to deflect the shot.
