It’s been a season of growing pains thus far for the Bishop Diego High football team and the youthful inexperience was still evident in victory on Friday night.
After building up a 34-7 halftime lead the Cardinals survived a second half Nipomo rally to capture a 41-28 victory in a non-league contest at La Playa Stadium.
“I think we did get a glimpse of the way we can play, but I also think we’ve got to learn from the second half in particular and be more in control when the game is in control,” said Bishop Diego coach Tom Crawford. “There’s lessons to be learned and it doesn’t matter if you win or lose a half there’s lessons to be learned in that.”
