SANTA ANA -- The old saying in football is that defense wins championships.
At least that’s the reason that the second-ranked Mater Dei Monarchs are one step closer to the Trinity League title.
The Monarchs (7-2, 4-0) sacked St. John Bosco elusive quarterback Keith Price six times and intercepted him once as they defeated the visiting Braves, 35-6, Friday night at Santa Ana Stadium.
The Braves (7-2, 2-2) entered the game averaging 37.8 points per game this season.
“I told them, you tackle and contain, we win,” Mater Dei coach Bruce Rollinson said. “If you miss tackles and lose contain, we’re going to struggle.”
The victory clinches a playoff berth for the Monarchs and at least a share of the Trinity League title for the second consecutive season.
