SAN DIEGO – The El Camino Warriors scored two touchdowns in the final 3:22, including an 18-yard scoring pass with 14 seconds left to defeat host San Diego Mesa in a National Central League opener on Saturday night.

The Olympians did some rallying of their own in the fourth quarter, erasing a six-point deficit with a pair of scores.

DEJON SMITH caught a 7-yard touchdown pass from JAKE DUNNINWAY, then Dunninway rushed for a 17-yard TD to put Mesa up 44-36 with 8:19 to go in the game.

Smith scored on a 36-yard pass from Dunninway early in the second quarter to give Mesa (3-3) a 14-0 lead.

Mesa kicker JUSTIN KAPLAN hit a 31-yard field goal with 4:46 to go in the second quarter as the hosts led 16-7 at the half in a reasonable scoring contest.

Then things broke loose in the second half.

Dunninway had a 36-yard scoring pass to AUSTIN RUMBO to put Mesa ahead 23-14 early in the third after the Warriors scored on their first possession of the second half.

The Olympians pretty much wore out their turnover trashcan again on the sidelines with five interceptions, including one that resulted in a 75-yard touchdown by BRENDAN TORRANCE that gave Mesa a 30-21 edge.

El Camino (4-2) erased that lead and grabbed an edge for the first time with two quick scores late in the third quarter.

The Warriors turned the nine-point deficit into a six-point lead in just 2:15.

After Jonah Tavai tied the game for ECC with his second touchdown with 3:22 remaining, Trevon Clark caught an 18-yard touchdown pass from Aaron Tomas with 14 seconds left.

“(El Camino) did go up-tempo in the second half,” Mesa coach GARY WATKINS said. “Our defense played hard until the very last snap.”

Dunninway finished with 464 yards passing on 30-of-44 attempts and four touchdowns, although ECC out-gained the Olympians 546-498.

“We didn’t execute in the moments that we had to,” Watkins said. “Yeah, we made some really explosive plays, but we had the ball inside the 5-yard line two, maybe three, times and we didn’t capitalize on that.”

The game had 31 penalties for 275 yards combined.

“It’s brutal, man,” Watkins said. “The number of unsportsmanlike calls, let the kids play.”

Smith caught 10 passes for 162 yards, while DOMINIC MCMANUS had seven receptions for 120 yards.

KEVIN LEVESQUE scored the only touchdown of the first quarter on a reception.

Former Mount Miguel Matador SANTINO PACHECO got his interception slammed into the receptacle, while AVEON IRVING had two of the five picks.

“Our defense fought all night,” Watkins said. “They were out there for 94 plays and that’s a lot of plays for any defense. That takes a toll when the game comes down to the wire.”

Mesa faces Cerritos College next on the road.
