Running back Brett Draimin ran 14 yards for the Centurions’ first touchdown in the first quarter and caught a shovel pass and broke loose for a 42-yard touchdown in the second quarter.

Calvin Bell, who rushed for 70 yards in nine carries and caught seven passes for 44 yards, tied the score, 6-6, for Simi Valley (0-2) with an eight-yard touchdown reception on the first play of the second quarter.

Saugus responded with three touchdowns before halftime, all on Parker passes.
