Staying with the California commits, Murietta Valley defeated Temescal Canyon 46-20 with wide receiver Aaron Young catching a touchdown pass. Complete statistics and a game recap were not located but here is a nice picture of Young's scoring reception. Young is 6'5" and the picture shows him using his height to beat a shorter defender.
