Led by a dominant defense and a resurgent offense, the Jackrabbits got another convincing win on the road against Millikan, 42-0.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Jackrabbits lost to Wilson last year and at Millikan two years ago, and have been licking their wounds waiting for their turn to get back on top. They\u2019ve seized sole possession of first place in the Moore League in convincing fashion, going 3-0 so far with three running clocks and a combined score of 141-0. If the Jackrabbits can post a shutout next week on the road at Jordan, they\u2019d be the first time in Moore League history to go a whole season without giving up a point (two teams have given up six points).<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is Poly football, the way it\u2019s supposed to be played,\u201d said Poly coach Travon Patterson. \u201cThe defense is playing lights out\u2013I\u2019m impressed by them and by the coaching staff and the job they\u2019re doing putting together a gameplan every week. The kids are buying into the system and they\u2019re just having fun.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poly\u2019s defense had six takeaways by six different players, with five interceptions and a fumble recovery, continuing a dominant run over the last three weeks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Full story coming soon<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The562\u2019s coverage of football and Long Beach Poly Athletics for the 2026-27 school year is sponsored by Former&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":506360,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[131,133,132],"class_list":["post-506359","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-long-beach","tag-long-beach","tag-long-beach-headlines","tag-long-beach-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/506359","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=506359"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/506359\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/506360"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=506359"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=506359"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=506359"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
