Anderson, a senior who had yet to fulfill heavy preseason expectations, rushed for 243 yards on 19 carries and a pair of scores to lead the Falcons (2-0, 5-2) past the host Rebels 20-0 in a Golden League game. Limited to just 369 yards on 81 attempts in the first six games, Anderson torched Quartz Hill (0-2, 3-4) for 11 carries of 10 yards or more. Anderson credited his blockers, who helped end what had been more than a month of frustration for a player who had been outshined by teammate Shaun Perez. Perez, who entered the game with a team-leading 411 yards, had just 66 before suffering a concussion in the first half. ``It made me mad. (Perez) is getting more yards. He's a great runner,'' Anderson said. ``Tonight I broke away; the coaches were giving me the ball more. A lot of schools have been keying on me.

It came back to haunt Albee in the second quarter and helped Williams to his second consecutive win over the Rebels. Facing a second-and-nine at his own 30, Albee ordered a quick kick from tailback Hiram Johnson, who just happens to be the punter. The impromptu kick traveled just 25 yards to the Palmdale 44.
