Vikes roll over Diablo Valley

Sophomore quarterback David Macchi (Willow Glen) threw for three touchdowns and ran for two more to lead the West Valley Community College football team to a rousing 63-28 win over Diablo Valley College in Coast Conference play last Friday afternoon in Saratoga.

Macchi tossed a couple of TD passes to Brian Davis (Pioneer) for 14 and 13 yards, and he hit Kevin Gray (Pioneer) with a 48-yard scoring toss. Macchi also ran 26 yards for a West Valley touchdown in the second quarter and sneaked over from the one for a TD in the final period.

Heath Ferreira (Valley Christian) had a pair of short touchdown runs in the win.

The win was the first of the year for the Vikings. They will take their 1-2 season record up against the College of the Sequoias on Sept. 28 in a 3 p.m. game at the West Valley campus in Saratoga.
