‘This is Valley Christian football’: Warriors make WCAL statement by blowing out Riordan at home

SAN JOSE — Valley Christian initially got some attention across the Bay Area after its stunning 47-7 homecoming win over Archbishop Mitty.

The Warriors should have everybody’s attention after Friday night. Facing off against an Archbishop Riordan team ranked No. 6 in the Bay Area News Group Top 25, No. 10 VC jumped out to an early lead and pulled away late, easily holding off the visiting Crusaders 31-13 on the hill in San Jose.

“It was great,” said Valley Christian coach Mike Machado afterward.
