TOP 3 TEAMS 

#1.  MURPHY/CHRISTIAN

Dominated the City Central League at both the junior high & elementary levels, then teamed up with Murphy to win in the Winter Championship Series.  Dominant on both sides of the line, linebacker & running back.

2. NORTH MOUNTAIN

Led by a  5th grader at quarterback and the leagues best offensivelineman, North brought together the Mountain View and Royal Palm communities to become a force to recon with.

3.  ALHAMBRA

With the leagues best QB, protected by two dominant ladies on the line, Alhambra has been a consistant contender.

MURPHY 19, NORTH MOUNTAIN 6

Murphy led 7-6 at the half then two big plays later, ran away from North Mountain 19-6.   In an effort to build stronger & more competetive teams in local areas, the teams were made up of teams from Phoenix Royal Palm/Arizona Cardinals Academy and Mountain View (North Mountain) and central Phoenix based Murphy (Art Hamilton, Phoenix Christian and the area surrounding the Murphy district).  The partnerships will make for more competetive football this spring and next fall in the newly formed City Central League.  Phoenix Christian won the City Central title this year.

Running behing big Armando Muyos, Andrew Romero and and Rafael Segay, Murphy's Kaelon Harrington had over 150 yards rushing on 15 carries as he carried the load for Murphy.  Harrington has rushed for over 1,000 yards for the year, continuing a run of state class running back/athletess produced or trained by AAU teams & Coach Mo Speed camps to include last years Dominique King (Central HS), Trae Armstrong (Deer Valley, also an All-American sprinter), Cole Luke (Hamilton high school/Notre Dame), DeVonte Neal (Chaparral, Notre Dame) and a host of others (click here for our alumni list).  Harrington, the league's top scorer, had touchdown runs of 30 & 6 yards.

Murphy quarterback DeAndre King also had a big day.  He ran for over 100 yards, including a 65 yard TD run and with key completions to Rafael Cedillos, Hernan Orosco, Harrington, William Hood (50 yards on 6 carries) and , King had the most productive day of any Central City quarterback this season.

Defensively, outside linebackers Harrington & Matthew McDermott shut down North's running game.  The pass rush led by Jorge Lozano and interceptions by Cedillos, Choppa and King, Murphy made things difficult for the North offense causing 5 turnovers with 3 interceptions and two fumbles.

North Mountain's "do everything" back Vincent Underwood was kept to his first sub-100 yard day, but he made his presence know leading North in tackles.  He also had two interceptions. Rudy Gonzales, Toby Vega (the leagues tallest player) and Daniel Morales (the leagues biggest player) held their own on the defensive & offensive lines but Murphy had too many weapons and turnovers stalled any effort.  Willie Argramonte, one of the league's best two way players, had a good outing at running back and defensive back. 

North Mountain's quarterback Michael Contrarras scored North Mountain's lone touchdown after he, Underwood and Argramonte teamed up on North's best offensive drive late in the first half.

NORTH MOUNTAIN WINS AGAIN, TO FACE WINNER OF MURPHY/CHRISTIAN VS ALHAMBRA

NORTH MOUNTAIN 13, MURPHY/CHRISTIAN 0

North Mountain's Vince Underwood ran for over 175 yards including two 50 yard runs as North wins on the road.  Underwood also made big plays on defense.  Big Daniel Morales dominated the line on both sides of the ball.  Murphy's bright spot was running back William Hood.  A 6th grader, Hood had 120 yards rushing includinga 40 yard run.  Teamate Jorge Lozano had 3 sacks, Ronnie Leyva had an interception.

MURPHY/CHRISTIAN 14, ALHAMBRA 6

Game halted early, but running behind big Armando Munuz and Andrew Romero, Kaelon Harrington scored on two 50 yard runs and assmased 180 in only three quarters.  He was also dominant doing duble duty as a linebacker.  Defense was the key for Murphy as Big Jorge Lozano, coming off 3 sacks vs North Mountain, got two Alhambra's QB twice and had numerous hurries.  Linebackers Matthew McDermott, Harrington and Rafeal Cedillos shut down the run.

NORTH MOUNTAIN 27, ALAMBRA 12

This rivalry just keeps getting better.  In one of the best games of the season and as our bowl season gets underway North Mountain took advantage of superior size & depth as they beat Alhambra.  In a reversal of fortune, this time it was Alhambra who was shorthanded on the sidelines as North Mountain showed up 30 plus strong.  In the previous meeting North had only 9 players and Alhambra had 20 plus.

North won the ground battle as Vince Underwood, one of the league's top running backs, rolled up almost total 200 yards as he had big plays with runs of 30 yards or more and two of the same receiving. Daniel Morales, North Mountain's outstanding offensive lineman, was dominant and gave quarterback Michael Contrerras plenty of time to throw and that was key as North's passing game was superior and was the difference maker in the game.

Alhambra's quarterbackback Isaiah Morales also has a big day, as did another dominant lineman, Jace Fuamatuhad.  Fuamatuhad had a 20 yard run followed by a 5 yard scoring run in the opening drive.  Jace also was dominant on ther side of the ball and North quickly learned to run away from her.  Not to be outdone, Daniel Morales, the other "Big One" had a 25 yard run of his own to set up the go ahead score for North Mountain.

JUNIOR HIGH

COUGAR YOUTH FOOTBALL 42, GLENDALE CARDINALS 0

The Cougar Defense clamped down and led  Christian to a big win in the final game of the fall season.  Dorian Gardner added to his league high sack totals and teamed up with Previn loyd and Max Peoples in shutting down Glendale passing game.  Kyle James (5 solo tackles), Ryan Munos, Davis Tarver and Nick Lawlor led Cougar linebackers who stretched out and slowed the passing game with the help of safety Matthew Mcdermott, who had his best game with several passes defended and an interception. The rest of the secondary which included Nathaniel New, Daniel Frampton and Fernando Valario also had impact plays.

The ground game led by Kaleon Harrington, Loyd, Brandon Rodriguez and Cory leary once again piled up the yardage led by Harrington, who scored on runs of 60 and 50 yards and on a pass play from quarterback Riley Miller.  Miller also threw a 20 yard TD toss to Rafael Cedillos. Th eoffensive line of Andrew Romero, Armando Munyoz, Javan Segay, Quinn Lebiech and others made it a total team effort, paving the way for running backs and protecting the passing game.

DEVELOPMENTAL LEAGUE

COUGAR YOUTH FOOTBALL 22, GLENDALE CARDINALS 7

Cory Leary rushed for 133 yards, and Daniel Frampton scored on a 20 yard run and 20 yard pass from quarterback Levi Bourland as the Junior Cougars beat Glendale for a second time to win the Cougar Bowl developmental division. The line play of Edward Brown, Jacob Sharpe, Joshua Thorntonand centter/linebacker Amadeus Coleman led the ground attack that allowed Leary, Frampton, Orlando Gillette and Luke Johnson to have their way.  The receiver/defensiveback/lineback rotation led by Kyle James, Mike Ramirez and Joseph Thornton also helped in the win that kept the "Mighty Minions" unbeaten at 4-0.

The Central Phoenix based Christian Cougars will host the Glendale Cardinals in the 2012 Cougar Bowl on 25 October, 2012 at the Phoenix Christian high school athletic complex.

The two faced each other in the season opener and played to an 13-all tie.

The Cougars finished the regular season 4-1-1 (3-0 in the Central Phoenix League) with 3 win wins in a row over Alhambra, Coffelt and North Mountain. 

The Cardinals compete in the A.I.M. league based out of Phoenix First Assembly Church in north Phoenix.

The Junior Cougars JV game precedes the varsity at 6:45.  The Junior's beat Glendale 27-6 behind a 300 yard offensive attack, but that was a different Cardinals team than the one that beat Coffelt a few weeks ago.  Much more physical.  This could be a good one.

The Cougar Club Football teams defeated North Mountain 26-6.  Running backs Kaleon Harrington and Danny Rodriguez had their way on the ground as they have all season.  Harrington scored from 40 yards out the first two touches he had and had a total of 3 touchdowns.  Quarterback Riley Miller also had a rushing touchdown. 

Led by Dorean Gardner's 5 sacks, the defensive line (the offensive line also), which included Max Peoples, Armando Munyoz and Previn Loyd, dominated from the first snap.  Linebackers Rodriguez, Ryan Munos and Kyle cut off running lanes and slowed North's do-everything running back Vince Underwood after he had a big running and passing day against Murphy last week (over 200 all-purpose yards).  it was a group effort as the secondary fared well also behind an early interception by Cory Leary.

CHRISTIANS VS NIGHTHAWKS II:  Christian wrapped up the regular season title with a 4-1-1 record after thumping Murphy 40-6.  They play #2 Alhambra for the conference title Friday the 19th at Phoenix Christian.  Christian beat Alhambra 34-6 during the regular season.  Could be a good one as Alhambra has a balanced attack an the Cougars starting with a big pass play (Riley Miller to Davis Tarver) to shake things up against Murphy.

NORTH MOUNTAIN:  North Mountain's Vince Underwood scored 3 touchdowns and ran for over 150 yards vs Alhambra and caught a pass from Michael Contrerras in a balanced offfense vs the Hawks.  The line, anchored by Daniel Morales, did well against Alhambra as North only had the 8 player minumum for the game.

ALHAMBRA: Qurterback IsaiahMorales had another good game vs North Mountain and pretty much solidified his status as the leagues top quarterback.  Alize' Haley Henry has developed into a pretty good two-way player as is Eddie Morales.  Jace Fuamatuhad ran over North Mountain defenders on a 20 yard run, had it called back, then rolled over the Cougars again for 15.

JUNIOR FOOTBALL:  Christian's junior varsity faces Alhambra for the developmental league title Thursday the 18th at Phoenix Christian.  The #1 Cougars are unbeaten with a dominant line and a the top running attack with Corey Leary and Orlando Gillette putting up over 200 yards per game on the ground.  Quarterback Levi Bourland opened up the passing game with Daniel Frampton last week and the defense has caught.  Alhambra has lostonly to the Cougars.  They possess a couple of very good linebackers and have a solid passing game.

CHRISTIAN JUNIOR FOOTBALL 40, MURPHY 6

Christian's ground game, led by running backs Kaleon Harrington, Daniel Rodriguez and Previn Loyd led the way to a lop-sided win over Murphy.  It was Murphy's first game as a group of players combined from Coffelt, Hamilton school and Kuban school.  Quarterback Riley Miller had his best game as a passer with throwing tosses to Kyle Janes and Harrington plus a big first down throw to Davis Tarver that set up the rout vs Murphy.  He also contributed to the ground game with a 40 yard scoring run.  The Cougar defensive line was dominant as Dorean Gardner, Loyd and Max Peoples clearly had their way with the Mustangs.  Linebackers Ryan Munos (scored on a fumble recover), Quinn Leibrich and Rodriquez also contributed.

Junior Varsity

CHRISTIAN JUNIOR VARSITY 14, MURPHY 6

Daniel Frampton scored on a 30 yard pass from quarterback Levi Bourland and Corey Leary scored on a 35 yard run as Christian held off a tough murphy team.  Murphy running back Benjamin Orosco had another 100 yard day but was slowed in the critical second half by a host of Cougar defenders led ny defensive lineman Jacob Sharpe, Edward Brown, Amadeus Coleman and Michael Ramirez.  Murphy scored on a 40 yard pass from Hernan Orosco to Benjamin Orosco.

CHRISTIAN JUNIOR FOOTBALL 40, MURPHY 6

Christian's ground game, led by running backs Kaleon Harrington, Daniel Rodriguez and Previn Loyd led the way to a lop-sided win over Murphy.  It was Murphy's first game as a group of players combined from Coffelt, Hamilton school and Kuban school.  Quarterback Riley Miller had his best game as a passer with throwing tosses to Kyle Janes and Harrington.  He also contributed to the ground game with a 40 yard scoring run.  The Cougar defensive line was dominant as Dorean Gardner, Loyd and Max Peoples clearly had their way with the Mustangs.  Linebackers Ryan Munos (scored on a fumble recover), Quinn Leibrich and Rodriquez also contributed.

Junior Varsity

CHRISTIAN JUNIOR VARSITY 14, MURPHY 6

Daniel Frampton scored on a 30 yard pass from quarterback Levi Bourland and Corey Leary scored on a 35 yard run as Christian held off a tough murphy team.  Murphy running back Benjamin Orosco had another 100 yard day but was slowed in the critical second half by a host of Cougar defenders led ny defensive lineman Jacob Sharpe, Edward Brown, Amadeus Coleman and Michael Ramirez.  Murphy scored on a 40 yard pass from Hernan Orosco to Benjamin Orosco.

The Revamped/reloaded Cougars host A.I.M. league champions, the Glendale Cardinals at Phoenix Christian.  Both teams have mostly new faces from last year, the Cougars are vastly improved and deeper.  This game will set the tone for the season for both teams.  Key returnees for the Cougars include Wildcat QB/DB/DB Danny Rodriquez, Defensive linemen/linebackers Dorean Gardner, Nathaniel New, Ryan Munos, Davis Tarver and Riley Miller.  Miller and 6th grader Daniel Frampton will spend time at QB.  Kyle Janes and Frampton headline a strong group of experienced 7th graders that played on the elementary school team last year.

The 5th & 6th grade teams will play a scrimmage 30 minutes before kickoff,

 Coffelt hosts North Mountain wearing the Murphy black & whte worn by last years unbreaten Murphy squad and 2011 AIM champs.  Both teams lost key upperclasmen but both have good, experienced linemen.  North Mountain has one of the leagues best all-around players in Vince Underwood (QB/RB) and one of the leagues top returning lineman, Daniel Morales. 

Kuban is new to this but boasts big linemen and fast skill position players, which is all you need att his level.  Unsettled at QB, the running game & spread offense will help them get settled in a hurry.  Like most other teams, Alhambra lost a bunch of players to graduation but they do have speed and a stable of running backs.  Last season they ledthe PSL in rushing, winning the City title but loosing to the Public school league champion Sullivan in the title game.

JUNIOR HIGH

CHRISTIAN & GLENDALE CARDINALS TIE, ALHAMBRA ROLLS

CHRISTIAN JUNIOR COUGARS 13, GLENDALE CARDINALS 13

The AIM/Glory Glendale Cardinals used a passing game to counter a strong Christian Cougar running attack to force a 13-all tie in Thursday nite play at Phoenix Christian high school. Running back Kaelon Harrington (K-1) rolled up 180 yards on 12 carries including two long touchdown runs. Defensive back/linebacker Nick Lawler made a key interception and running back/tight end Previn Loyd, Jr followed with a 6 yard run to setup Harrington's go ahead score. Danny Rodriguez also contributed to the ground game. The Cougar defense was also paced by Matthew McDemott, Kyle Pellish, Joseph Munos, Dorean Gardner and Kyle James. Loyd also had a big game on defense.

SATURDAY

ALHAMBRA NIGHTHAWKS 34, COFFELT JETS 0

The Nighthawk running game picked up where it left off last year but added a finishing element to erase memories of last seasons slow finishes. Edward Morales scored 3 touchdowns to lead Alhambra. Morales scored on a spectacular touchdown pass from a scrambling Isaiah Morales, a 35 yard run and on a 20 yard fumble recovery. Morales' scrambling ability was the big blow to the short handed Jet's who were visibly exhausted towards the end of the fist half. Tailback Alize' Haley scored on 30 & 50 yard runs and like Morales, ran for over 100 yards. On the defensive side Jace Fuamatuhad a sack and a fumble recovery, Maribel Martinez shut down her side of the running game and also had a fumble recovery.

ALHAMBRA 26, GLENDALE CARDINALS 7

Last year's City Champion, The Alhambra Nighhawks, fresh off a 35-0 over Coffelt/Murphy, put it on Glendale in another lopsided performance.  The Hawks running game, execition and stingy defense proved too much for Glendale.

GLENDALE WILDCATS 27, CHRISTIAN 14

The Wildcats put a stop to the Cougar ground game in the second half and the Cougars had no answer to the Cougar passing game resulting in a lopsided last 10 minutes of what was otherwise a close game.

JUNIOR HIGH

CHRISTIAN COUGARS 34, ALHAMBRA 7

The Cougars rolled up over 300 yards on the ground and shut down #2 Alhambra's lethal passing game with a fierce pass rush in a lopsided win. 

JUNIOR HIGH JV

CHRISTIAN 28, ALHAMBRA 6

The backfield of Orlando Gillette and Cory Leary ran all over the Lions offensively and the front line of Brown, Pellish & Sharpe shut down the running game enroute to a big win over highly touted Alhambra.  The Cougars, #1 in league play are 3-0 and assured of a bowl birth and a shot at the championship.

JUNIOR HIGH

CHRISTIAN:  Keleon Harrington rushed for 209 yards in the Cougar's win over Alhambra.  Max Peoples led all with 5 solo tackles and teamed up with Armando Munyoz, Previn Loyd and Davis Tarver to sack Alhambra;s QB 6 times.  Linebackers Daniel Rodriquez, Harrington, Nathaniel New and Ryan Munos also contributed with defensive backs Matthew McDermott, Kyle Janes, Daniel Frampton and Eric Lawler holding their own in the secondary.

ELEMENTARY LEAGUE

GLENDALE 25, COFFELT 19:  Glendale earned a showdown/rematch vs Alhambra with an exciting win over Coffelt.  A Johnny Apodaca's 30 yard run with 3 seconds left on the clock shocked the Jet's who had just scored 12 unanswered points to get back into the game after trailing at halftime.  DJ Johnson and Brion Gray were dominant defensively for the Cardinals.

CHRISTIAN 34, ALHAMBRA 6:  The Junior Cougars Corey Leary and Orlando Gillette ran wild again, each scoring touchdowns in a lopsided win over Alhambra.  4th grader Luke Johnson got into the mix scoring on a 15 yard run.    Defensively, Daniel Pellish, Jacob Sharpe, Daniel Frampton, Michael Ramirez, Edward Brown, Amadeus Coleman and Joshua Jordan all contributed on the defensive side.
