Anthony Stanley, playing in front of his admiring older brother James, who was a running back for the Vikings, racked up seven solo tackles in La Jolla's 51-14 win over Mission Bay Oct. 24 in preliminary statistics.

Andrew Mitchell, a sophomore, recorded a safety as the Vikings' defensive unit corralled a Mission Bay runner in the end zone in the second half of the game, played on UC's field due to construction of the Buccaneers' new playing surface. The safety inched the score from 42-7 to 44-7.

It was good to see Isaac Gutierrez back in the LJHS defensive statistics with a solo tackle himself, after a respite away.

There were many more Vike defenders who got in on the action, but their names will have to wait until official statistics are compiled from film in the near future.
