GODDARD’S SCORING FLURRY LEADS TO 2-0 START AFTER WINLESS SEASON

After being shut out for the first 18 minutes of the game, Goddard exploded for three touchdowns in the final six minutes of the second quarter that propelled the Lions to a 30-7 road win at Valley Center. Valley Center was in control of the game, leading 7-0 following a 30-yard touchdown catch from running back Daimont Mucker, but the Lions flipped the game with a 21-point barrage just before halftime. The effectiveness of Goddard’s run-first attack set up quarterback Ashton Sell in the play-action game, as a fake hand-off set up a 48-yard touchdown throw to Jaden Cohens and a 23-yard touchdown pass to tight end Jake Jasnoski. Both receivers were wide open behind the defense. But the biggest momentum swung came following Sell’s second touchdown throw, as Goddard squibbed the ensuing kick-off and Blake Read was able to recover the loose ball on the Valley Center 31-yard-line with 58 seconds remaining before halftime. Goddard punched in for its third score when Sell connected with Mason Healy on a drag route in the end zone for an 8-yard score, as the Lions rallied from a 7-0 deficit to take a 21-7 halftime lead. The Lions were able to shut out Valley Center in the second half, as they picked up their second straight win to begin the season. After going winless last season, the Lions (2-0) undefeated entering a crucial AV-CTL Div. II road game at Andover (1-1) next Friday.

GODDARD NOTCHES FIRST WIN SINCE 2020 WITH 56-POINT EXPLOSION

It was a jarring season for Goddard to finish last year with an 0-9 record, just three years after playing for a state championship in 2018. The Lions were able to forget about last season’s troubles on Friday when not only did they win their first game since Oct. 30, 2020, but experienced an offensive explosion in a 56-35 win over Campus at home. The 56 points was more than half of Goddard’s entire output (96 points) from last season.
