The football team traveled 44 miles to play the Allan Hancock Bulldogs in Ventura last Saturday night, only to lose 3-35.
The only field goal was made in the second quarter by Bradley Borreson from 32 yards away.
There were 59 plays in total and Pierce College had 11 penalties and 97 penalty yards. Pierce is now 0-3 and Hancock 2-1.
After losing the first three games in the season, Wide Receiver Kenny Davis still has a positive attitude when commenting, “One family, one team, one passion.” Encouraging words for the team, the school and the fans, giving us hope for the future of the team.
“We could not generate points,” said Head Coach Efrain Martinez. “The team was not performing well as a whole.”
Head Coach Kris Dutra of the Bulldogs was unavailable for comment.
Recent games were also lost to Moorpark and Fullerton, but we still experienced at least double digits on the score board. The Brahmas could not stop the ball and could not score. It may have been a night of astray, but the season is still young.
Next week is a bye week for the Brahmas. Our next game will be at home on October 4th, against East L.A. at 7pm. Players will have to catch up to speed to make a difference on the score board .
Players are expected to use the bye week to implement the game for performance and also to work on the fundamentals of football.
