In the last home game of the season the Mustangs battled Morningside coming out on top 49-19. Mira Costa dominated every aspect of the game, but most prominent was Tre Searcy’s three touchdown performance.

“We were facing a different offense so we need different approach.” Defensive Coordinator Ray Lee said. “We blitzed more and that really helped us stop their offense.”
