Nordhoff defeats Thousand Oaks for second time

The Nordhoff Rangers played their best football of the season when they needed it the most as they outplayed, outhustled and outcoached the Thousand Oaks Lancers en route to an exciting 28-10 victory. The Rangers set the tone early and used their running game to control the clock and their defense limited the number of big plays Thousand Oaks made on the night. Senior running back Tayler Livingston gained more than 100 yards on the ground and he found the end zone two times for the Rangers. Quarterback Tanner Workman was efficient and played his best game of the season. Workman threw touchdown passes to Brandon Wadsworth and Emmett Johnsen and made big throws when the Rangers needed them the most. The win was their second in as many years against the Lancers and puts NHS back in the mix as one of the elite teams in the CIF-Southern Section.
