The Fresno City College football team dominated the Merced Blue Devils, 76-19. The Rams went into the first home game of the season undefeated due to their road victory against the West Hills Falcons.

At the start of the game, FCC quickly scored two touchdowns in the first 4 minutes of the game. On the defensive side of the ball, they forced Merced to punt the ball multiple times.

Merced did not score any points until 15 minutes into the first half. At that time, the Rams had 21 points on the board. By halftime, the score was 49-13.

“To win this game, we needed to limit our mistakes, execute more on offense and put numbers on the board. That’s what we did,” said sophomore tight end Ralph Fautanu.

After halftime, the Rams continued to play hard. They played as a team and seemed unwilling to slow down their pace despite the large gap on the scoreboard.

“It was fun blowing them out but we still had in the back of our mind that they could come back at anytime,” said freshman wide receiver Justin Lea.

The secondary players were able to play much of the second half, in which they continued the relentless pressure. The cooperation of the primary and secondary players was a major part of what led the Rams to victory.

“We have a young and talented team,” said head coach Tony Caviglia. “It was really fun to watch them go out and compete tonight.”
