Jackson Rushes for 145 Yards as Western Defeats Anaheim

Trevell Jackson was at it again, but this time the numbers weren’t as staggering.

He rushed for 145 yards in 18 carries and scored three times to pace Western to a 42-12 victory over Anaheim in an Orange League game Friday night at Glover Stadium.

Jackson scored an Orange County record seven touchdowns and rushed for 310 yards last week.

Jackson ran in from two yards on the Pioneers’ (3-3, 1-0) first possession for a 6-0 lead with 9 minutes 38 seconds left in the first quarter.

Western increased its lead to 14-0 on its next possession, when Damien Keoho scored from 38 yards out. Keoho finished with 65 yards in seven carries and two touchdowns.

Anaheim (0-6, 0-1) scored on a 20-yard pass from Jimmy Gorman to Tru Nguyen with 28 seconds left in the first quarter to cut the lead to 14-6. It was as close as the Colonists would get.

Keoho scored again on a one-yard run in the second quarter to give Western a 20-6 lead.

Western then took a 28-6 lead with 6:57 left in the third quarter on Luis Canchola’s 19-yard run. Canchola rushed for 63 yards in seven carries.

Jackson then scored Western’s final two touchdowns on two- and one-yard runs.

The Colonists got a final score on a 15-yard pass from Robert Ramirez to Nguyen with 6:56 left in the game.
