Prep football: Trinity Knights allow first points of season; Golden Valley struggles to find rhythm early

- By Diego Marquez Signal Staff Writer dmarquez@signalscv.com

For the first time this season, the Trinity Classical Academy football team did something it hadn’t done in the first game: allow its opponent to score.

Hosting Rivera at Fillmore High School on Friday night, the Knights (2-0) remained undefeated in the 58-6 Week 1 win.

Opening up the scoring for the Knights was Edgar Romero, who rumbled into the end zone on a 10-yard run putting the Knights up 6-0. The extrapoint attempt was missed.

Romero finished the game scoring two rushing touchdowns.

Up 14-0 with 5:07 left in the first quarter, the Knights’ Aidan Duhm recovered a fumble and scored to put the Knights up 20-0.

In the second quarter, after a missed field goal by Rivera, junior quarterbac­k Rick Roberts found Carson Campuzano wide open for a 50-yard touchdown to put the Knight ahead 26-0.

Roberts found Campuzano later on in the second half for a 26-yard touchdown reception.

At halftime, Trinity led 26-0.

With 5:42 minutes left in the third quarter, Rivera (0-2) found the end zone to get it on the board, 34-6.

The Knights’ AJ Horning responded with an intercepti­on returned for a touchdown, after the two-point conversion the Knights lead grew to 42-6.

Antelope Valley 62, Golden Valley 7

Things didn’t start or end so well for Golden Valley football, as the team traveled north for a second straight week to take on Antelope Valley on Friday.

Losing 62-7, the Grizzlies (0-2) allowed the Antelopes to score a 68-yard touchdown run on their first drive of the game and again on their last drive of the game.

The Grizzlies’ lone touchdown came just before halftime when quarterbac­k Zack Chevalier found wide receiver Johnathan Kaelin for a 10yard touchdown pass.
