San Dimas, Ontario football teams set for Thursday night game

The game between Ontario (0-2) and host San Dimas (2-0) was originally scheduled for Friday but the move to 7 p.m. on Thursday was necessitated by not having enough officials to cover all the Friday night games.

The officials association reached out to some schools to see who would be interested in moving a game to Thursday and San Dimas was happy to oblige. Of course the Saints did so after checking with their opponent which didn’t have a problem with the move either.

Ontario just opened an on-campus stadium this year but has a permanent road team previously the Jaguars have always played a lot of Thursday games.

“It really didn’t make a difference to us,” Ontario coach John Kusleika said. “If that’s what they needed to do we were fine with it.”

Ontario is still looking for its first win of the season after being dealt a 56-28 loss by much-improved Nogales last week. The Jaguars turned the ball over four times which led to 21 Nogales points.

San Dimas is coming off a 55-14 shellacking of Maranatha and has outscored its first two opponents by a combined 97-28.
