Cougars use big second quarter to run over Broncos
On the first drive of Friday night’s game between Rancho Bernardo and Escondido, the Broncos shut down running back Ricky Seale and the Cougars’ offense. Seale was nearly unstoppable for the rest of the game, helping Escondido to a 35-7 win.
“I thought tonight was a perfect performance. It was a great atmosphere, it was Homecoming,” Seale said. “Everyone from school was here, all our friends were here. All around it was a good night.”
Seale broke a scoreless tie midway through the first quarter with an 81-yard touchdown run. The Cougars scored on three of their next four drives before halftime, including another 81-yard scoring run by Seale.
“It just kind of happened,” Seale said about the touchdown runs. “On the first run, I just made a couple moves and I realized nobody was next to me. The next one was the same thing.”
Escondido’s second-quarter offensive explosion coupled with a staunch defense put Rancho Bernardo in a 28-0 hole at the half. The Broncos had only allowed 26 points combined in their first three games.
“They were a better defense than they looked like,” Seale said. “They hit really hard. We just got lucky and the seams opened up for us.”
Rancho Bernardo showed signs of life after halftime, taking the opening drive of the second half inside Escondido’s five-yard line. But Escondido defensive back Riley Wilson ended that drive – and any chance of a comeback – with an interception in the end zone.
Escondido’s offense slowed down in the second half after running back Tim Zier, Seale’s blocking back, went out early in the third quarter with an apparent concussion. Zier remained on the sideline for the rest of the game.
“He’s key. It’s hard when everybody is keying on one person,” Seale said. “It’s always nice to have a triple-threat kind of thing out there.”
Early in the fourth quarter, Seale scored from four yards out to give Escondido its decisive 28-point lead. Seale had 25 carries for 290 yards and three touchdowns despite facing a Rancho Bernardo defense with a gameplan keying on stopping him.
“Coming off the bye week we did a lot of practicing,” Seale said. “We practiced the blitzes, we practiced all their formations and it paid off in the end.”
Fourth-ranked Escondido (4-0) will look to stay perfect when they host Vista this week. Rancho Bernardo (3-1) will look to get back on track when they open Palomar League play at home against Carlsbad.
