Moorpark over Thousand Oaks

Final score, Moorpark 49, TOHS 28. The game was played closer than the final score, but the Lancers made a few critical mistakes and the Musketeers took advantage... such is football.

One thing seems certain. Jack Boger should have a fine senior year (he's having a nice year now). If Jack gets a chance to kick it up into high gear as he hits space... look out, he's gone. Hopefully the Lancers can find some time to get more experience for the underclassmen on the offensive line.

Jessie Border is leading an undersized defensive group that is making some terrific plays around the line of scrimmage. But once a play gets loose more than 5 yards down field, all bets are off. The defensive backs haven't learned that they have the right to move to the ball once it crosses the line... using any means available. Block, stop and go, spins, jukes; all the tools are available to them and the offense has to contain itself.

Oh well, the Lancers are a young team and next year could be a very good one.
