Steaking Tigers Invade Dragon Territory at Hughes on Game of the Week

For football fans who have a serious need for speed, Friday night would be an excellent time to treat yourself an exciting exhibition of speed when the Inderkum Tigers take-on the Sacramento Dragons on the Hometown Sports Game-of-the-Week.

Friday’s coverage begins at 7:00 pm and may be seen on Comcast Cable channel 17, Consolidated Communications channel 17, and AT&T U-Verse channel 14.  The game will also be streamed live on Access Sacramento.org and on the NFHS Network. Announcers again this season are CIF Hall of Fame Coach Jim Dimino, former HS Basketball Coach Lauren Goodman and veteran play-by-play announcer Will James.

Inderkum and Sacramento share an impressive common attribute — blazing team speed.  They have boasted some of the most explosive offenses, and fly-to-the-football defenses in the section.

Inderkum Head Coach,Terry Stark, in his 14th year at the Tigers’ helm, sped past the 100-win plateau in 2016, and brings a 115-23 mark into the game.

The backbone of this amazing success is Stark’s potent Wing-T offense that continues to flourish year after year with his backfield filled with a brigade of RBs who can go the distance on any play.

The Tigers enter play 2-0, with a pair of overwhelming victories to start the season.  Inderkum spanked Elk Grove, 37-13, then demolished American Canyon, 69-0.

Junior QB J.J. Ray runs Inderkum’s Wing-T the throttle in a backfield that features speed merchants Ray Brown, Johnny Williams, and Aaron Espero.  Ray has fired four TD passes in the two wins.  TE Isaiah Ward and WR Javi Daniels lead the receiving corps.

The Tigers’ defense, anchored by DE Devon Williams and LB Logan Benoit, is tough on the run and puts heat on opposing QBs.

Sacramento has its hands full against this formidable challenge, but defense has been the Dragons’ strong suit thus far.  Despite bringing an 0-2 record into the contest, Sac has allowed just 31 points in a pair of tough road losses, including last week’s heart-breaker; a 15-14 setback to Chico on a FG with just 23 seconds remaining.

Dragons’ Head Coach and Defensive Coordinator, Joe McCray, is the architect of Sac’s stunning 2016 upset of Folsom that snapped the Bulldogs’ remarkable 52-game winning streak against SJS teams.

The Dragons will need another stellar defensive effort Friday night against the Tigers.  DE Kyron Smith, LBs Sherman Gay and Corey Jordan, and DB’s Deeon Stevenson and Mychal Williams will lead this effort.

Junior QB Quantrell Jackson, who is still adjusting to his new leadership role.  He’ll rely heavily on RBs Javon Felton and Keysean Gooding, WR Mychal Williams, and WR/KR Deyvon Drayton to put a lot more  points on the board.

A major buzz of energy should swirl through Hughes Stadium Friday night; with an impact the Dragons hope will translate into a major home field advantage.  If the Dragons were to select a song that describes their mission, “Hold that Tiger” would fit nicely.

Cougar running back D’Marcus Ross rushed 29 times for 250 yards, and three touchdowns including a 95-yard romp that put Capital Christian up to stay with 6:36 left in the third quarter.

Wolf Pack running back Jacob Trach carried 18 yards for 130 yards to leave Cosumnes Oaks and three touchdowns. His longest was a 63-yard kickoff return following an early Capital Christian safety which gave the Wolf Pack an early 23-7 lead midway through the 2nd quarter.

Access Sacramento’s Will James and Jim Dimino call the highlights.

The full TV game replay of Capital Christian and Cosumnes Oaks can be seen on Access Sacrametno on Sat. Aug. 18 at 11 a.m., Sun. Aug. 19 at 3 a.m., Tues. Aug 21 at 7 p.m., Wed. Aug. 22 at 11 a.m. and Thurs. Aug. 23 at 3 a.m.

Access Sacramento‘s Hometown Sports Game-of-the-Week enters its 21st year covering high school and college student-athletics in Sacramento County with an attractive season-opening football telecast Fri. Aug. 17 when the Capital Christian Cougars invade Elk Grove to tangle with the Cosumnes Oaks Wolf Pack.

Coverage begins at 7:00 pm, and may be seen on Comcast Cable channel 17, Consolidated Communications channel 17, and AT&T U-Verse channel 14.  The game will also be streamed live from AccessSacramento.org and on the NFHS Network.  

The Cougars — elevated to D-3 status with their realignment shift from the Golden Empire league to the Capital Athletic League — are led by highly heralded Head Coach Casey Taylor, who, after compiling hall-of-fame level success at Del Oro, guided the Cougars to a 7-4 mark and a playoff appearance in his inaugural season at Capital Christian.

The Cougars will rely heavily on the leadership and stellar play of four-year starter D’Marcus Ross, an imposing force at the RB and LB positions.  Key OL/DL returnees Will Buck and Shane Semeit will anchor the lines for the Cougars.  The starting QB position, where Trey Jones was the primary signal-caller last season, is yet to be unveiled.  Inexperienced Damion Malott Jr., who saw little action last season returns, and the likelihood of a new face emerging as the starting QB remains a distinct possibility.

Taylor’s counterpart — Wolf Pack Head Coach, Derick Milgrim —  embarks upon his 5th season at the helm, whose squad has elevated to a D-1 classification after vacating the Capital Valley Conference where he led the Pack to four consecutive playoff appearances, to compete this season in the ultra-rugged Delta League.

Play by Play Announcer Will James (Left) and Color Analyst Jim Dimino

The Wolf Pack will also undergo a new leader at QB this season.  Sophomore Anthony Grigsby Jr. is solidly entrenched as the starting signal-caller.  Grigsby has some potent weapons at his beckoned call, led by dynamic RB Jacob Trach (1093 yds./8 TD in 2017), and WRs Elijah King and Corey Perkins who lead a deep receiving corps, and represent excellence in the secondary.  Defensive linemen Nathaniel Giron, Isaiah Carranza, Myles Cannon, and LB Brandon Jennings are the primary run stoppers.  Kicker Kevin Duarte will be a difference-maker for Special Teams.

Once again, the Access Sacramento Game of the Week broadcasts will be led by the veteran play-by-play announcer Will James with commentary by CIF Hall of Fame Coach Jim Dimino.  The team has been analyzing high school football on Access Sacramento for two decades and more than 200 broadcasts.

Friday’s game represents a first time meeting for both teams, adding further intrigue to a match-up of two teams competing in different leagues, and operating at higher division levels.  It’s a season opener that will be filled with plenty of excitement, and sure to answer early questions about how the respective fortunes of these teams will unfold in the 2018 season.

18th Annual Cesar Chavez Youth Leadership Conference 

Chavez Youth Conference founded by Rene Aguilera When Rene Aguilera was an undergraduate at UC Davis, he had the chance to meet labor leader and civil rights activist Cesar Chavez who gave Aguilera some friendly advice on being a successful community organizer.

 

“If you don’t have a flier, you’re not an organizer,” Aguilera recalls Chavez telling him.

It is a conference Aguilera founded in 2001 as a way to give back to his community in Roseville, California and to celebrate the holiday in honor of Chavez. With a rapidly growing Latino student body actively interested in attending college, Aguilera saw an opportunity to bring together community leaders to volunteer time and educate the next generation of leaders about career skills and college readiness. The event is hosted and sponsored by UC Davis helping keep the event free for the more than 1500 attendants, which includes students, alumni, parents and other members of the community.
