    SAN JACINTO — The San Jacinto football team successfully swung the Mountain Pass League pendulum to the east a season ago by breaking Citrus Hill’s 13-year run as league champion.

    On Saturday, the Tigers and Davon Banks made sure it didn’t swing back.


    Banks scored three touchdowns as the host Tigers built a 28-point, third-quarter lead and triumphed to a 35-21 victory over the Hawks.

    The win establishes San Jacinto as the prohibitive favorite in the Mountain Pass League, moving forward.


    “It’s a great thing for our program,” San Jacinto coach Aric Galliano said. “The kids have worked hard. I’ve had these seniors all four years, and a good way to send them off was winning this game. As juniors last year, they ended the streak for (Citrus Hill) at 13 years, and we’re hoping to continue.”

    Banks, a senior defensive back and receiver, has yet to find a college home for next year. He certainly helped his chances by catching four passes for 171 yards and scoring on pass plays of 39 and 85 yards while also returning a 92-yard kickoff for a score. He also had two other touchdowns negated by penalties, including a would-be, 99-yard interception return in the fourth quarter.

    “I do it on both sides of the ball, offense and defense,” Banks said, “and I was able to do it today on special teams, a well.”

    Banks’ kickoff return gave San Jacinto (4-1, 3-0 league) a 14-7 lead with 2:58 left in the first quarter. In the second quarter, he made a sensational, one-handed grab at the sideline, then reversed field and cut across for an 85-yard score with 4:33 left in the first half.

    Tigers senior Kobe Ramirez opened the third-quarter scoring with a 39-yard touchdown, and freshman quarterback Sebastian Wood found another freshman, Dillon Gresham, for a 15-yard touchdown pass with 2:05 left in the third quarter.


    Anybody know anything about the league San Jacinto is in?

    With the last season mostly being cancelled there are definitely going to be a lot of guys who fall through the cracks that shouldn't have.

    Having said that, I don't know. He looks small

    Watched is hudl. Everyone looks tiny. Banks doesn't look any bigger. Seems to have decent instincts. Doesn't appear to be exceptionally quick, fast or agile for his size.

    First DB commit we've had that I'm completely perplexed by.
