2015 NIAA Northern Region Football, Carson vs. Damonte Ranch at Carson High

Carson won at home against Damonte Ranch 17-14.

The hype about this game being close was no joke!  And the game delivered a great deal of entertainment….  In my opinion the score doesn’t really reflect the overall “feel” of the game, Damonte started off strong (and Carson started slow…) and passed one into the end zone to take a quick early lead 7-0 and then looked to be threatening again but were picked off by double coverage in the end zone to end their second drive… then Carson got going… and after that, the “tone” of the game seemed to be all Carson…  The offense wasn’t as successful as in games past but we all knew this was the game for first place in the Sierra League for 2015.

Here are some shots from the night.
