1991 EAGLES

Eagles 42 - Brawley 16

Santa Margarita Gets a Late Start but Wins Easily

BRAWLEY, CA., November 1, 1991 – Stalled early by penalties and mental mistakes, Santa Margarita controlled the second half behind the running of Josh Ireland, who scored four times Friday night to lead the Eagles to a 42-16 victory over Brawley in a non-league game at Warne Field.

The game ended well after 11 because of a triple-header in which the freshmen, junior varsity and varsity all played on the same field in one night.

Santa Margarita led by just 13-10 after two quarters, but the Eagles owned the second half. Santa Margarita (4-3-1) outgained Brawley (3-5), 237-17, on the ground in the third and fourth quarters, with Ireland accounting for 188 yards.
