HALF MOON BAY WINS 2nd CCS TITLE IN SCHOOL HISTORY!!!!
Half Moon Bay 54, Pacific Grove 7: Matt Spigelman racked up 217 all-purpose yards and scored four touchdowns as Half Moon Bay won the Central Coast Section Division V crown at Independence High.
The title is the second in school history for the Cougars (11-2).
"We consider ourselves not so much a team as we do a family," HMB coach Keith Holden said. "We knew we only had one more week together, and we wanted to go out the right way — we wanted to work hard and enjoy it."
The Cougars certainly had a lot to enjoy, starting with Spigelman. The senior running back rushed for 162 yards and three TDs on 15 carries and also hauled in a 55-yard TD pass from quarterback Gavin Tomberlin with HMB facing third-and-30 on the second quarter's opening play.
Spigelman's first rushing TD, a 2-yarder, followed his own 87-yard burst up the right sideline and helped stake Half Moon Bay (11-2) to a 28-0 lead late in the second quarter. He then added two more rushing TDs in the third quarter to put the game out of reach.
In addition to his offensive stats, Spigelman made a huge play on defense. His second-quarter interception prevented Pacific Grove (10-3) from gaining momentum after the Breakers scored their lone touchdown on their previous possession.
