NOTES: Return to running back suits Christian Marshall just fine

Christian Marshall returned to running back after being injured in a season-opening loss and will carry a streak of five consecutive games with at least 100 rushing yards into Friday’s Class 4A Sunset Region semifinal against top-ranked Bishop Gorman.

Gorman’s ground game too much for Palo Verde in Sunset quarterfinals

Tate Martell and Biaggio Ali Walsh ran for a combined 336 yards and seven touchdowns Thursday to lead Gorman’s football team to a 59-0 rout of visiting Palo Verde in a Class 4A Sunset Region quarterfinal game.

THE LATEST
Palo Verde continues late-season surge, stops Shadow Ridge

Palo Verde lost its first six games of the season, but after knocking off Shadow Ridge 24-9 on Thursday, the Panthers are on the brink of making the playoffs.

Rushing attack delivers Palo Verde its first win

Focused Arbor View uses strong defense to top visiting Palo Verde

Legacy comes out fiery, dominates visiting Palo Verde

FIELDER’S CHOICES: Summer’s gone, but league play’s here

Sure enough, league play in the Class 4A Sunset Region and Class 3A starts this week, the true indicator that summer is done. Even Bishop Gorman is taking a break from irking out-of-state fanbases to play a Southwest League contest against Bonanza. (I didn’t include that game in my picks, but, spoiler alert, Gorman is going to win.)
