MONTEREY PARK,CA — The East Los Angeles College Huskies won 42-23 on a night to bring awareness the Coach to Cure MD Program. The Huskies welcomed Avery Faeth and his family to bring awareness to Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
The ELAC football coaches wore Coach to Cure MD patches and Avery Faeth was acknowledged at halftime. In addition, those in attendance had a chance to text the word “Cure” to 90999 to donate $5. For information on how to donate, visit: http://www.parentprojectmd.org/site/PageServer?pagename=CTCMD#
It looked like a long night for the Huskies when ELAC freshman quarterback Jonathan Santos (South East High School) fumbled on the Huskies second play at the ELAC 35 yard line, thirty-five seconds into the game. San Diego Mesa scored nine seconds later and led 7-0.
ELAC, however, bounced right back with a five-play, 69 yard touchdown drive, the latter play a Santos 48-yard strike to freshman wide receiver Kenny Allen (Fairfax HS). It was 7-7.
“We started the game really bad, but the team responded well. The start did not faze them, which is good,” said Art Hoomiriatana, ELAC offensive coordinator / quarterbacks coach. Click here to read Full Story on Huskies Athletics
