Varsity finalPalos Verdes 33, Torrance 6
Palos Verdes did the contender chore.
Palos Verdes did what contenders have to do when the calendar says trap game: no mystery, no reset, just 33-6 over Torrance. Ellie Correa went 12-of-18 for 182 yards and four touchdowns, and the scoring map stayed wide: Audrey Goeppner caught two TDs, Addie Eroen and Ava McGovern each took one, and Kallen Pope's 58-yard catch kept the field stretched.
The sharper read is how PV separated without needing a perfect passing night. E. Kaneshiro flipped the game with a pick-six, five pass breakups, and eight pulls; Alexis LaMothe and Goeppner each had two sacks; Kennedy Baranick added six pulls. That is a contender profile: mistakes did not drag the game back into reach because the defense kept creating its own leverage.
