Shadow Ridge's Cody Alfar rushed for 198 yards and a touchdown, and J Henderson threw for a score, caught a touchdown pass, had a quarterback sack and got a late interception to seal a 27-10 Mustang victory over host Del Sol on Friday.

Henderson hit Ben Triana on a 22-yard TD pass to open the scoring, and Alfar burst through the middle and rumbled 49 yards to put Shadow Ridge (2-2) up 13-0 in the first quarter. Henderson then took a short Dustin Puia pass and broke a few tackles on his way to a 69-yard touchdown with just 36 seconds left in the first half.

Del Sol’s (0-4) Aaron Williamson would score on a 14-yard run to cut the lead to 10, but Puia found Melvin Johnson for a 21-yard touchdown with five minutes to play, and Henderson’s interception ended the Dragons’ final drive.
