Galvan, who rushed for 187 yards in 24 carries, scored the Hunters’ other touchdown on a two-yard run in the first quarter to give Canoga Park (2-2) a 7-0 lead.

Galvan’s biggest play was when he blocked an extra-point attempt by Jesus Perez with 1:12 remaining in the third quarter after a two-yard touchdown run by David Smith gave the Lancers (2-2) a 13-7 lead.
