In the final game of the regular season, Citrus College steamrolled to a 66-10 victory over LA Harbor.

The Owls improve to 6-4 on the year, 4-1 in the American Metro League with the win. The Seahawks drop to 2-8, 0-5.

Citrus finished with 295 passing yards and 207 rushing yards for 502 yards of total offense.

Adam Urena went 19-for-25 with five touchdowns in the game.

Defensively, the Owls held the Seahawks to 209 yards of total offense with just 81 yards rushing. Kendall Henderson had two tackles for loss and 1.5 sacks, while Luke Pruitt assisted a sack and also had two tackles for loss. Soloman MacNeil had two sacks and two forced fumbles.

In the Owls first chance with the ball, Isaiah Espinosa caught a 44-yard pass from Urena to put Citrus on the board first. Ivan Castro followed with a perfect point-after-touchdown kick to give the Owls an early 7-0 lead.

Less than four minutes before the period ended, Castro tacked on another three points with a 26-yard field goal.

LA Harbor made its way into Citrus territory, but Blake Davis intercepted a pass and ran the length of the field for a 98-yard pick-six.

The Seahawks broke through with 10 minutes left in the second, scoring a touchdown and a field goal to pull within a possession, 17-10, but it was the closest the Owls would allow.

On the kickoff, Kasmir Dina secured the ball and found a seam to run in an 83-yard touchdown. Four minutes later, Jeremiah Flores caught a five-yard pass from Urena to put Citrus up 31-10.

The Owls still weren't done in the half, though, as Dru Thompson grabbed a three-yard pass to give Citrus a 38-10 cushion at the break.

Citrus picked up right where it left off and scored back-to-back touchdowns to start the third as Jacob Ray scored on a 30-yard pass and Urena ran in a one-yard touchdown.

The Owls had more in the tank and tacked on two more touchdowns in the fourth, a four-yard lob for six-foot-10 Amillion Richards to snatch out of the air and a 57-yard run from Sal Tovar to seal the 66-10 victory.
