LA MESA – Helix senior ISAIAH WOODEN kept up his highlight-reel performance for the second-consecutive week and senior CARSON BAKER threw five touchdown passes in the first half on Senior Night, as the second-ranked Highlanders defeated Grossmont Hills League foe El Capitan, 58-7, Friday night.
Wooden, who had a pair of 60-yard punt returns for touchdowns a week ago, nearly returned the opening kickoff into the sunset before the Vaqueros tracked him down already just inside the red zone to open the game.
