Mariners stay unbeaten in SCCAL play

The Aptos High football team held off Scotts Valley for a 36-21 win on Friday night as it stayed unbeaten in Santa Cruz Coast Athletic League play.

With the win, the Mariners improved to 3-0 in league. They are 4-2 overall. They have not lost since traveling to Oakdale in early September.

The Mariners had to rally to get the win. They trailed 14-8 against the Falcons before roaring back to take an eight-point lead at half time. From there, the defense didn’t allow another point to Scotts Valley.

Aptos hasn’t lost a league game since Oct. 16, 2010 at San Lorenzo Valley, a span of 12 games.

The Mariners head to Soquel for a showdown with the Knights next week.

• Pinewood 28, Anzar 14: At Anzar, the Hawks had hopes of a historic second consecutive win, but Pinewood denied the hosts.

Jeremy Cedeno and Gabe Hatcher each scored a touchdown for Anzar, which fell to 1-3 on the season.

Anzar will have two weeks to prepare for Alma Heights Christian.
