(Perris, CA) Rancho Verde at Citrus Hill, Aug. 28 – The Battle of the Torch picked up from the momentum of last years epic battles, Citrus Hill beat the Mustangs, 28-21, in Week 0! Devin “The Dude” Floyd showed up big Friday night, rushing for 251 yards and three touchdowns. The Hawks d-line looked really good as well only allowing 49 yards for first year starter Jamal Scott and pressuring new starting QB E.J. Stewart all night.

The Mustangs put up a good fight, senior DemajiaeReed-Samuel (OLB) was all over the field making tackles and wideout Brian Thompson plus Jamal Scott (RB) made visits to the endzone. New Head Coach Jeff Steinberg, said his team put out a good effort, but feels there is some work to do.
