The first battle of the Carson Civil War was a massacre, to say the least. If there is a special by ESPN on the Braves' season, don't be surprised.

OCVarsity.comThe Tartans played very well, taking that big 52-0 lead at halftime, then just running out the clock in the second half. St. Margaret's finished 15-0, the first county football team to do so. And this is the second state championship team in county history.There used to be football state championships in the early part of the 20th century. Fullerton lost to Bakersfield in the 1927 state game – there was only one at the time. Orange Lutheran beat Palo Alto in the 2006 Division II game.St. Margaret's made a lot of history this year, setting county records for winning streak, single-season victories and single-season scoring. The Tartans ended it with an exclamation point on their 15-0 run, with a CIF-Southern Section and CIF state championship.

CARSON – Maybe there was a bit of gamesmanship in Harry Welch earlier in the week when he said he would take a two-point victory against Hamilton Union.
Or maybe Welch really was being conservative out of respect for the Northern Section champion.Either way, the Tartans still exceeded their coach’s expectations Friday night in the inaugural CIF state small schools bowl game.
In a victory that was anything but small, the Tartans posted a 59-7 victory at the Home Depot Center to complete their third consecutive undefeated season and extend their Orange County winning streak to 43 games.
“I never expected this whatsoever,” Welch said. “Tonight, we executed. … That’s a very good football team. They’re not very big but they’re quite good. I’m very proud of (my team).”
