Rio Linda Knights Fall to Foothill Mustangs in Elkhorn Classic

Rio Linda, CA – The Rio Linda Knights suffered a disappointing 28-0 loss to the Foothill Mustangs at home on Friday night, and the Elkhorn Cup was sent back to Foothill. The defeat drops the Knights’ record to 1-3 on the season.

Key Highlights:

  • Foothill Dominates: The Mustangs controlled the game from start to finish, showcasing a solid offensive and defensive performance.
  • Knights Struggles: Rio Linda struggled to find their rhythm and generate offense against the Foothill defense.
  • Injuries: The absence of Junior sparkplug running back/linebacker Joseph Corey due to injury was a significant setback for the Knights.
  • Penalties and Turnovers: The Knights continue to struggle in these areas.

Looking Ahead:

Both Rio Linda and Foothill have crucial matchups on the horizon. The Knights will host Natomas next week for their Golden Empire League opener and Homecoming game on Friday September 20th, while the Mustangs will travel to Fairfield to take on the Falcons.

Game Preview: Rio Linda vs. Natomas

The Knights will face a tough challenge against the Natomas Nighthawks, who are coming off a lopsided loss to Sacramento. The game will be a crucial test for Rio Linda as they look to bounce back from their recent struggles.

The Junior Varsity team also fell to Foothill, 6-0.

Stay tuned for updates on the Rio Linda Knights’ upcoming games and season highlights.
