North County-Scotts Valley football

Saturday's game
North County (1-1) at Scotts Valley (2-0), 2 p.m.
 A pair of impressive wins over two former Santa Cruz Coast Athletic League rivals has the upstart Falcons off to a good start.
 For the first time since the inception of the program nearly two decades ago, Louie Walters isn't the head coach at Scotts Valley, having retired.
 Yet, the offense looks eerie similar under Lewis LaHood, as only 13 passes have been attempted in two games.
 Jamesley Giblin and Ryan Linn are among five running backs with 10 or more carries, with Giblin having rushed for 101 yards for the Falcons.
 The Condors have been efficient in throwing the ball, completing 10-of-15 last week. In two games, they have three touchdowns through the air.
 Still, this is a program that relies on grinding the ball and eating up minutes. That didn't happen last week in a 40-21 loss to Monte Vista.
 Riley Anderson, who was among the state leaders in tackles last year for the Condors, is seeing more time offensively as well, scoring two touchdowns last week.
 Last year the Falcons handed North County a 24-12 setback in the first ever meeting between the two schools.
