Saturday's game might best be described as a tale of two halves. That's exactly what it was as the Leopards looked triumphant in the first half and non-existent in the second, giving up 463 yards of total offense, losing to Cal Lutheran, 28-13 and dropping their third consecutive game of the season in front of an impatient crowd Saturday at Ortmayer Stadium.
Behind a stellar 43-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Justin Fenchel to receiver Matthew Hermsen, the Sagehens of Pomona-Pitzer, playing in their first Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference game in eight years, spoiled the victory for La Verne in the final minutes of the game to take the 26-23 victory at Merritt Field in Claremont Saturday afternoon.
