LA PUENTE – Bishop Amat Lancers could not overcome an injury to senior Rio Ruiz and lost, 14-3, to the Loyola Cubs on Friday night at Kiefer Stadium.
Ruiz injured his left leg in the second quarter in a pass play after the referees blew their whistles. He did not return.
Sophomore Koa Haynes took over as quarterback after the injury, but the Lancers could not generate any offense.
The Lancers’ lone points came on a 41-yard Alex Gutierrez field goal.
Amat travels to face Sherman Oaks Notre Dame next Friday night.
