Lots going on in the CIF Southern Division title game at Orange Coast College...
First, La Mirada blocks a punt, and that leads to a J.T. Torres TD run, 7-0, La Mirada.
Garden Grove bounces back with three unanswered TDs, 21-7, Garden Grove.
La Mirada then scores on a 29-yard Max Gama run to cut Garden Grove's lead to 21-14.
Also, Garden Grove's starting QB is out with injured ribs. Game is still in the second quarter.
Garden Grove is a solid team and it has played on emotion most of the season after one of their players died after collapsing during a game. However, Norwalk probably should have beaten Garden Grove it they didn't shoot themselves in the foot with sloppy play. La Mirada will not break down like that tonight.
