The phone that wouldn't quit ringing.

Vista Murrieta would win the toss and start the game with the ball. On fourth down Connor would toss up an INT giving the Nighthawks the ball. Murrieta Valley would fail on a fourth down conversion giving the ball back to Connor with 52 seconds left in the first quarter. In which Connor would waste no time sending Weisbecker on a streak with no safety over top for a 78 yard touchdown pass. (7-0 VMHS)

The second quarter would start with a weak drive by the Nighthawks forcing them to punt it away. Out of the Wing-T Connor would run a speed option in for a 4 yard touchdown. (14-0 VMHS) With 20 seconds left on the clock Murrieta Valley would find the endzone with an 8 yard pass. (14-7 VMHS) But there would be no fear after a 13 yard pass to Cano, Connor would connect with Big Mike Weisbecker one more time for a 63 yard touchdown pass. (21-7 VMHS)

Murrieta Valley would come out with the ball and try to make something happen in the third, however a turnover on downs would end that hope. After failing to move the ball for more then two yards the Nighthawks would have another shot as Vista Murrieta would punt it away. The Valley boys would bring the game within a touchdown with 13 seconds left in the third quarter on a 5 yard pass. (21-14 VMHS)

The first play in the fourth quarter would be a VMHS punt. Which would allow MVHS to tie it up on a 55 yard touchdown pass. (21-21 TIE) But Connor would have none of that as he used play-action to suck in the Nighthawk defense before going over their head for an outstanding 50 yard touchdown pass. (28-21 VMHS) After a near pick from Connor and a drive ending tackle, Connor would lead the offense back onto the field. With 40 seconds left to go Nguyen would take it for a 29 yard rushing touchdown. (35-21 VMHS) Not going away MVHS would connect on a huge pass to bring the game within seven. (35-28 VMHS) VMHS would recover the onside kick and run out the clock going home with the victory.

"GOOD MORNING MURRIETA!!! Unless your from the Valley then I'd try to sleep til next week as Connor Newman was not letting you take it home last night." Blasted the radio first thing in the morning. "Ya know that after last night ESPN moved Connor up to 97th on their top 150, Along with moving him to a 5-star quarterback prospect and a 2-star CB. I'm starting to believe we could have a state championship team right here in our town." Connor clicked off the radio and headed down stairs.

"Mom have you got the mail yet?" shouted Connor, "Yes, dear, it's on the kitchen table." explained Mrs. Newman. Connor went to the table and saw an Arizona State letter along with an Auburn letter. Arizona State expressed a serious interest in Connor as a cornerback and Auburn did everything but offer a scholarship to play quarterback. Arizona State has some sharp uniforms but the chance to be the next Cam Newton also played a role in Connors mind he wore two for two reason, one Deion Sanders number at Florida State, and Cam Newtons number at Auburn.

Later on while hanging out at the junior varsity game with Jessica Connors phone began to ring, "Aloha I'm Norm Chow with Hawai'i and we just wanted to offer you a scholarship to play corner-back for us." said the former professional football coach. "WOW! thanks coach I was hoping to hear from you I plan on announcing what college I will be attending after we wrap up this season." Just as Connor hung up a beep came from his phone so he went to check his voice-mail but as he did he heard someone shouting, "Hey thats my ear your dialing into," it was Bobby Hauck who was offer a scholarship to play cornerback at UNLV. Finally Connor was getting some looks at his favorite position.

Before climbing into bed Connor happen to look at his phone and remembered he still had a voice-mail that he never checked, so he quickly pressed star-nine-nine and listened, "Chip Kelly here, from Oregon I just wanted to extend an offer to play Quarterback hopefully I'll hear from you soon son." A chance to play under Chip Kelly on that explosive Oregon offense sounded great.

None the less with all the hoop all around Connors recruitment he still had to finish out High School and next on the list was (5-3) Murrieta Mesa who was hoping with a win could take the conference title from Vista Murrieta, and if there was a team that could do it... It was the Rams of Murrieta Mesa, a team built with an explosive great offensive and a good defense to go with it. (6-2) Could Connor take the Conference title and lock in a playoff spot or would he need another game to do it.
