SANTA ANA — Westminster picked up its first Golden West League victory Friday night, defeating Santa Ana, 35-15, at Santa Ana Stadium.
The Lions scored on their first three possessions as quarterback Shaun Spradling scored on the opening drive on a two-yard run. He then connected with Chris Brewer for touchdown passes of 26 and 29 yards.
Westminster led, 21-7, at halftime. The Lions (2-6, 1-2) scored on their first drive of the second half after an 83-yard drive that was capped by a 24-yard touchdown run by Sparky Kale. Kale finished another drive with a one-yard run for a 35-7 lead.
With 4:29 left in the game, Santa Ana Valley’s Chris Weaver caught a 48-yard touchdown pass from Hector Candelas to make it 35-15, but that was as close as the Saints (0-8, 0-3) would get.
Spradling passed for 213 yards and completed nine of 25 passes. His favorite target was Brewer, who caught six for 168 yards and two touchdowns. Kale led all rushers with 95 yards in 15 carries and two touchdowns.
