Bakersfield High outkicks Clovis West

The game came down to the wire. With one of the best kickers in the history of the section Clovis West was confident Mr. Rolph would nail the game tying field goal. Unfortunately for the Golden Eagles it sailed wide on the senior. This was one of the best games I have ever witnessed at any level. Forget about the fact that it was high school. Forget about the fact that Bakersfield High's extraordinaire is only 5'7'' (MVP Peter Mitchell who was the QB and kicked the game winning FG for BHS). Forget about the tussle that occurred after the game (we got highlights below of the fight). This was nothing but a great FOOTBALL game. CW quarterback is heading to CAL but the best QB on the field on this night was the guy without the scholarship. Once again Kyle Negrete proved why he should be the MVP of the Clovis West football team. He not only played great offensively and defensively, but the best play was his punt of over 60 yards to pin Bakersfield deep in their territory (not that it mattered in the end). CW Running Back Matt Jelmini is a class act and conducted himself like a perfect gentleman during our interview. By the way rumor is he's up for valedictorian, I can see that. Check out the highlights below and if you weren't at this game, boy did you miss yourself an instant classic.
