SACRAMENTO - It's been a trying year at times for former Davis High and UC Davis star David Butterworth, the head varsity football coach at Pioneer. The Patriots had only won one game heading into this week.
Friday night will certainly be considered one of the highlights though as Pioneer routed Natomas 34-6 and snapped a four-game losing streak.
The Patriots led 7-0 at halftime before scoring three times in the third quarter. Running back Tyler Paschke rushed for 112 yards and scored on touchdown runs of 21 and 6 to lead the way. Pioneer threw just twice in the contest, but the second was a 6-yard touchdown pass from Stephen Peyton to Kenny Waller.

Here's some other area scores: Woodland beat Yuba City 21-14 in a game that could help decide a playoff spot in the Tri-County Conference. Dixon lost to Rio Linda 38-8 in Capital Valley Conference play and Winters fell to Las Plumas 28-0 in Butte View League action.
