Photos – Mission wins football opener over Rio Hondo Prep

Mission Prep used strong defensive play and an efficient ground game to beat Rio Hondo Prep 23-6 on Friday night in San Luis Obispo.

Braden Corona, a junior running back, racked-up 211 yards on 25 carries for the Royals, who didn’t give up any points after a first-quarter touchdown. With the score 7-6 and the clock winding down, Mission made a goal-line stand to finish the first half. The Royals finished the game by scoring 23 unanswered points.

Mission Prep (1-0), travels to Orange County for an away game next week at Crean Lutheran.
