They continued fighting hard reaching their goal to be the best. With the help of head coach Ken Broach, and some very determined players, the Knights ended their playing season with a 6-4-1 record. The Knights fought hard against the Carlsbad Lancers to have a 27-7 victory on Homecoming night. They played strong throughout the entire game togkeep their undefeated league record. Senior Josh Williams said, We're the best! Noboby can beat us! i The Knights' only league defeat was against Oceanside with a 0-20 loss. We just weren't prepared for this kind of challenge, said one coach. The team came together to complete the season with victories. One of the best plays used this season was the 37-yard field goal kicked by senior Abel Neri. Coach Broach said, lt was a long shot, but we knew Abel would come through for us.
