Clinic Jaguars winners again, 46-0
Led by a ferocious defensive effort and an offense that scored at
will, the Fountain Valley Clinic Jaguars remained unbeaten for the season
by pouncing on the Corona Panthers, 46-0, in Junior All-American Football
action Saturday.
Stephan Robb keyed the defense with 11 tackles; and linebackers Trent
Burns, Steven Santana, Nicco Boggio and Bryce Blake frustrated the
Panthers by holding them to minus-40 yards for the game.
Fumble recoveries by Burns and Andy Palacios -- as well as the line
play of Chad Palsulich, Loren Robb, Alexander Ackel, Dennis Trejo and
Benjamin Marshman -- kept the Panthers out of the end zone.
Blake also rushed for two touchdowns and threw a 37-yard touchdown
pass to Burns as the Jaguars rolled up 241 yards of offense, 134 of those
coming from running back Matt Empting, who scored three touchdowns.
Fountain Valley can clinch the league championship Saturday with a
victory over the host Riverside Cowboys at Arlington High.

the outside run. Huntington Beach’s secondary came up with four
