Servite defense holds _ barely

Mission Viejo’s Joey Branker is not going to want to look at the highlights of the dropped pass he had with 9:15 left in the second quarter. Dallin McEwen made a perfect pass to a wide open Branker, but he couldn’t hang on for what would have been a 44-yard touchdown.

Mission Viejo holds a 6-3 lead over Servite, but the Friars have the ball.
