It was a joyous night on Friday, Oct. 24 as the Falcons celebrated a 44-15 win over St. Francis High School. Star running back Kyle Hardwick was named king, and soccer player and sprinter Abby Imboden was named the Falcon queen.
The Falcon's pulled away from the upstet-minded Sharks on the second punt-return for a touchdown by junior Ryan Estrada in the third quarter that made the score 34-7. The Falcons never looked back and celebrated their standing as the lone first place squad in the Santa Cruz Coast Athletic League.

Shark infested waters for homecoming
It's always nice to celebrate homecoming with a win. The idea is to schedule an opponent who might play you tough for the first two quarters and then you break the game open in the third, allowing your seniors to celebrate their day with high fives and handshakes for the final period.
It doesn't always work that way.
Last season, the Falcons spoiled rival SLV's homecoming by eeking out a victory over the Cougars in Felton. This season, the Falcons scheduled a team for their homecoming game that had little to no expectations coming into the season, but could shock the league-leading Falcons if they're not careful.
The St. Francis CC Sharks are coming to town in tonight's homecoming showdown at 7:30 p.m. at Scotts Valley High School.
St. Francis is scary for a number of reasons. They are tough, they are motivated and they handled Soquel last week, proving they are for real.
The Sharks finished the 2007 season without a win. They had two seniors on the team and they were blown out in many of their games.
This season has been different. The Sharks are 5-1 with their only loss coming to Carmel in the first game of the season.
If Scotts Valley is not focused from the early going, they could face an uphill battle against a talented squad itching to win its first league title.
