Inglewood delivered an offensive explosion Friday night, knocking off previously undefeated Huntington Beach, 44-35, in a high-scoring CIF playoff showdown.
Quarterback Lincoln Jahn led the way through the air, throwing for 285 yards and four touchdowns, while Marlon Watson powered the ground game with a dominant 233-yard rushing performance and a touchdown. The Sentinels finished with a season-high 605 total yards of offense, extending their winning streak to nine games.
Huntington Beach refused to go quietly, as quarterback Brady Edmunds put together an impressive performance of his own, recording 379 passing yards and five total touchdowns. However, Inglewood made the necessary plays down the stretch to secure the victory and send the previously unbeaten Oilers home.
With the win, the Sentinels continue their postseason run and advance to the next round of the CIF playoffs.
