What started out well, with a 16-14 lead at the half, quickly fell apart once the second half whistle blew. Giving up 31 unanswered points over the third and fourth quarters, Escalon’s varsity football team fell by a 45-16 final at Calaveras High School in San Andreas on Friday night. Host Calaveras won the toss and elected to kick off, forcing Escalon to punt the ball away after their first series of plays.
