The Bishop\u2019s School football team improved to 7-0 on the season by posting a 28-14 victory over visiting Francis Parker on Oct. 22 at La Jolla High. “I think our defense played really well,” said Bishop\u2019s head coach Joel Allen. “I was proud of the kids.” The Knights got on the board first when senior tailback Alec Fisher ran for a five-yard touchdown in the first quarter. The Lancers answered back in the second quarter when Max Bosse hauled in a long pass from Warren Brody to even the score. After going into the half tied, Bishop\u2019s was able to retake the lead with 5:28 left in the third quarter. Capping off a long, methodical drive, quarterback Joey Moreno found Fisher open in the flat and the speedster got to the outside for a 15-yard touchdown catch and a 14-7 lead. “We ran double slants with our receivers and we sent out our running back into the flats and it was wide open,” Moreno said. Francis Parker was able to get back in the game when Brody picked off a Moreno pass and ran it all the way back to the Knights\u2019 two-yard line. Jesse Brookins plowed in from there with 28 seconds left in the third quarter to make it 14-14. Bishop\u2019s got back on track by feeding the ball to its go-to guy. With 10:53 left in the game, Fisher took a handoff from Moreno, broke a tackle and got free near the sideline before using his speed to gain on chasing defenders for an electrifying 70-yard touchdown run to give the Knights a 21-14 advantage on the scoreboard. “I came around the right side and saw No. 90 trying to tackle me so I just gave him a quick stiffy and I was gone to the races,” Fisher said. “When I see the endzone I like to speed it up a little bit.” The game looked to be in the bag at that point, but running back Austin Fisher coughed up a rare fumble with 1:55 left and the Lancers took over at their own six-yard line. “I think the pitch was a little bit behind me but it was my fault. I just dropped it, I don\u2019t know what was going on,” he said. Despite his miscue in the final minutes, Austin Fisher had a solid game, running for several key first downs and pulling in an interception from his linebacker position. Parker looked to take advantage of the turnover and drove to midfield with a couple of nice plays by Brody. But Knights junior defensive back Dominique Love ended the drive and the game when he intercepted a Brody pass and ran it back 65 yards to the endzone to make the score 28-14 with 1:05 left. “As soon as I saw the ball go up, I just took it and I knew I had to take it to the house to get that \u2018W,\u2019” Love said. “I had to take it back for the team.” The Knights will try to improve to 8-0 when they welcome Riverside Christian to La Jolla\u2019s Edwards Stadium on Oct. 29.
