SANTA ANA - Friday night’s matchup between Segerstrom and
Woodbridge was bound to showcase unlimited offense. What remained to be
seen was which team could get the necessary defensive stops.
That team was Segerstrom, as the Jaguars defeated Woodbridge, 47-28, in a nonleague game at Segerstrom High thanks in large part to five touchdowns from running back David Perkins.
Woodbridge (2-2) found itself in great position early as running back Austin DeFreitas carried the Warriors down to the 1-yard line on their opening possession. Quarterback Matt Callahan then punched in a touchdown just under two minutes into the game.
The Warriors wouldn’t find the end zone for the remainder of the half, however, as Segerstrom (5-0) running backs Perkins and Sonny Roa combined for five touchdowns and 226 yards in the first half to give the Jaguars an imposing 35-7 lead at the break.
Perkins finished with 218 yards on 24 carries, while Roa pitched in 113 yards rushing and two touchdowns.
The Jaguars defense put the reins on one of the county’s top rushers in DeFreitas in the opening half, but the junior could not be held down in the second half as he scored on a 3-yard touchdown run with 57 seconds remaining in the third quarter, bringing the Warriors to 35-14.
After the score, Woodbridge recovered an onside kick, and went on to score on a 4-yard run from DeFreitas, making it 35-21. On Segerstrom’s next possession, Perkins charged the Jaguars down field, carrying the ball three times for 51 yards, including a 7-yard touchdown run, giving Segerstrom a 41-21 advantage.
Again, Woodbridge made the game interesting on its next possession, as second-string quarterback Michael Pritchett, who replaced the injured Callahan in the second half, found his tight end, Zach Rusick, for a 6-yard touchdown at the 4:33 mark of the fourth quarter, bringing the score to 41-28.
But Perkins scored minutes later to secure the victory.
Perkins answered minutes later with his fifth touchdown run of the game, putting any Woodbridge comeback hopes to rest, and giving the Segerstrom the 47-28 victory.
DeFreitas paced the Warriors offensively, carrying the ball 38 times for 210 yards and two touchdowns.
