The Bulldogs lost 42-0 and were out of the game quickly as they fell behind 21-0 in the first twenty minutes and were down 28-0 at halftime. There was a chance for a comeback after they erased a 21-0 deficit against Pomona-Pitzer last week, but that was at home and CMS has played the best football all season within the conference.
Statistically the Bulldogs lost the time of possession by 12:56, turned the ball over twice, all while not forcing a turnover, allowing 375 yards of total offense and producing only 90 yards of offense, which included 41 net rushing yards and 1.4 yards per carry.
