Veteran's Day Holiday

Three big wins as Pitman sweeps GV:

Frosh: 56-13
Soph: 53-33
Varsity: 46-14

155! points total is definitely a record for a PHS 3 game series. Silver Squad also punched in two Touchdowns Wednesday night against Atwater.

Tune in next week for three season finales, and a great varsity matchup with post-season implications.

Final Games:
Silver Squad: Host Patterson Wednesday night @ Joe Debely Stadium, 6pm.

Freshmen: Travel to Merced High School's on campus field for a 3pm Sunset beater.

Sophomores: Host Merced Friday @ 5:15, Joe Debely Stadium. Your PHS Sophomore team has already clinched a CCC title outright and will be looking to finish off a perfect 6-0 run vs Merced High and their 2nd place squad.

The Big One:
VARSITY: Will have a playoff game atmosphere as PHS/MHS square off for the CCC title and many playoff implications. Winner hosts a playoff game the next week.

The action Friday at Joe Debely's "Turnip Patch" will be exciting as Merced continues to sling mud in the direction of the City of Turlock. (Rightfully so about the field condition)

Get there early Friday night to get a good seat, the Sophomore team can't wait to entertain you in the opening act.
