The 2011 Diablo Valley Youth Football season kicked off in Livermore, Saturday, September 10 with the Walnut Creek Marauders battling the Livermore Vikings. Since Lamorinda does not have a tackle football league, some Lamorinda boys have joined the Marauders.
The Junior PeeWees (8-to-10 year olds), coached by Lafayette's own Art Thoms, prevailed in a close game, 26-19.
The PeeWees (9-to-12 year olds) held the lead for much of the game but ran out of gas as the Vikings pulled away 19-7. Moraga's Jackson Reneau, a Joaquin Moraga sixth grader, scampered for the lone touchdown for the Marauder PeeWees behind the blocking of Bryce Henderson, also a Joaquin Moraga sixth grader, and Parker Godsey, a Stanley Middle School sixth grader.
