Sierra High closed out the regular season with a 62-26 Valley Oak League loss to visiting Patterson Friday.
Despite the lopsided defeat, the Timberwolves (1-5, 4-6) will have one more game as the Sac-Joaquin Section Bowl Game matchups are expected to be announced over the weekend.
"We were No. 14 coming into this game, and Patterson was highly ranked. I don't think this loss will hurt us," said Sierra coach Ryan Teicheira.
The Tigers (3-3, 5-5) were led by quarterback Scout Silva, who threw for six touchdowns and ran in for two more. He completed 12 of his 14 passes for 170 yards and no interception.
On the ground, Silva racked up 117 yards on seven carries.
After struggling to score on offense in recent outings, Sierra broke that string on the opening possession.
Quarterback Jaysen Martinez connected with Blama Kamara on fourth down — a 21-yard pickup — to keep the 10-play drive alive. He found DJ Shepherd for 23 yards to move the ball inside the Patterson 10. Martinez capped the 71-yard drive by finding Kamara on a 7-yard scoring strike.
It didn't take long for the Tigers to answer back. They went 71 yards on three plays with Silva scrambling into the end zone with a 38-yard run....
