The Cerritos High football team won its first CIF-Southern Section divisional championship in school history, rallying for a 19-13 victory over Yucca Valley High last Saturday night. Senior Jeremiah Bagaygay, known more for his defensive stops, caught a short three-yard pass from sophomore quarterback Justin Sagun in overtime for the game-winner. The Dons tied the game with 30.7 seconds left in regulation when Sagun found junior wide receiver Dikshanta Adhikari open for a 13-yard score. More to come.
Glad they changed brackets. Never thought it would happen
