Edmisten’s 105 Yards Not Enough as Edison Falls Short Against San Juan Hills

Frith was the star for the Stallions, catching 4 passes for 126 yards and two touchdowns, including a 74-yard reception that broke the game open for the visitors. He was named San Juan Hills’ overall Player of the Game. Quarterback Eiler King needed only nine attempts, completing 6 for 140 yards and two touchdowns. On the ground, Jack Smith ran 16 times for 90 yards and a touchdown, and Jackson Simoneaux added 82 yards and a score.

San Juan Hills’ defense also made an impact, sacking the quarterback five times. Ethan Falcinella and Maxwell Porter each had two. Cooper Chila was named the Stallions’ defensive Player of the Game.

Edison kept it competitive behind Edmisten, who carried 25 times for 105 yards and two touchdowns, a new season high for him, and added 3 catches for 26 yards. Quarterback Sam Thomson completed 17 of 27 passes for 120 yards and a touchdown, but was intercepted once.

The loss is Edison’s second in a row and drops the Chargers to 2-5. They have lost four of their last five home games. San Juan Hills improves to 6-1.
