The GCC Football Team was firing on all cylinders as they dominated visiting Santa Monica College 40-21 Saturday Oct. 28 at Sartoris Field. The Vaqs led 26-7 at the half as they compiled 486 yards of total offense and ran 80 plays, compared to just 54 for the visitors.
While quarterback Dylan Hassid passed for 270 yards and four touchdowns, Glendale's victory was keyed by the ground game as the team rushed for 216 yards with Giorgio Spiropoulos leading all runners with 185 yards on 34 carries and one score. Jahrique Lowe was the leading receiver with two scores on five catches for 90 yards.
