St. Margaret's standout running back John Murayama (hamstring) will not play Friday in the first round of the CIF-SS East Valley Division playoffs against Campbell Hall, Tartans coach Harry Welch said Tuesday night.
Murayama will be replaced by freshman Matthew Duenes, brother of former St. Margaret's standout running back Michael Duenes.
This injury is a blow for the Tartans but they will be fine Friday.
What will the impact of John not playing in the first round, due to his injury?
The Tartans have a balanced team this year with a number of threats on offense to challenge any defense ...
I was just a worried when I read that John would miss the first round. But it appears that their first round opponent defense has proven to give-up quit a bit of points.
