Well, I just watched the Poly High Jackrabbits play as well over 12 minutes and four seconds as any football team in history.
OK, maybe I’m getting carried away.
Anyway, Ricky Johnson’s 3-yard run on the first play of the second quarter and Jonathan Heinze’s conversion kick gave the Jackrabbits a 29-0 lead over the Millikan Rams Friday night at Veterans Stadium.
The statistics in that stretch were just as one-sided: Poly 166 yards and nine first downs, Millikan six yards and no first downs.
It’s now intermission and Poly is in front, 36-7, and safely on its way to Moore League victory No. 61 in a row.
And I’m not getting carried away when I write that Jackrabbits’ Coach Raul Lara’s biggest task over his team’s final five league games will be to keep his players from getting complacent and/or sloppy before the CIF Southern Section Pac-5 Playoffs get underway on Nov. 17.
