Azzinaro’s 3 TDs Fuel Simi Valley
SIMI VALLEY — Running back Chris Azzinaro scored three touchdowns and rushed for 105 yards in 12 carries to pace Simi Valley High’s 20-14 victory over Camarillo on Friday night in a Marmonte League opener.
Azzinaro’s first score came on a 49-yard run with 2 minutes 17 seconds left in the second quarter as the Pioneers took a 6-0 halftime lead.
The Pioneers (3-0-1, 1-0 in league play) took a 20-0 lead on Azzinaro’s two- and one-yard scoring runs in the third quarter.
Camarillo (1-3, 0-1) answered with two touchdown runs by Roth Valencia (73 yards, 26 carries)--the second with 38 seconds remaining--to make it interesting.
But Matt Guzzo recovered Camarillo’s onside kick to assure the victory.
