Monrovia pulls away in second half to win second straight Mid-Valley Division title

Game Story: The first 24 minutes was a heavyweight bout that featured an overwhelming underdog doing everything but take a physical beating.

In the midst of its first finals run since 2003, the San Gabriel High School football team traded punches with defending Mid-Valley Division champion Monrovia in an epic battle Saturday that ultimately proved short-lived.

Perhaps it was only fitting that, after rolling through opponents the last three weeks with strong second-half surges, the Wildcats scored 39 consecutive points in the second half en route to a 53-14 win and back-to-back CIF-Southern Section division championships.
