in a victory over their northern neighbors “It's just going out there and playing your rivals and stepping it up a little bit more” said Mountain Crest defensive back Ken Hadlicld who picked off two Sky View passes “It lakes a lot of the sting out of last year il really does” 'The Mustangs (3-- 2 in Region 0 5 and 3 overall) trailed at halftime but pul up IV unanswered points in the second half
