MOORPARK -- No offense to the young piano player who won Moorpark High's talent show last year, but it's hard to imagine a competition in which the Musketeers' so-called ``Franchise Boys'' -- running back Darrell Scott For Darrell Scott, the "Rachel's Challenge" founder of this name, see .

Darrell Scott is an American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. He has written several mainstream country hits, and also has established himself as one of Nashville's premier session
 and wide receiver Josh Smith Joshua Smith (born December 5, 1985 in College Park, Georgia, U.S.) is an American professional basketball player who currently plays for the Atlanta Hawks of the NBA. High school career  -- would come in third.

``Personally, I think we should've won. We had backup dancers A backup dancer is a dancer who dances with or behind the lead performers in a live musical act.

There was no question about where the Franchise Boys ranked on the football field Friday night in the host Musketeers' 42-24 victory over Hart of Newhall. Scott rushed Scott Anthony Rush (born December 3, 1985 [1]) is a former Australian labourer from Chelmer, Queensland, a western suburb of Brisbane, arrested on April 17, 2005 at Ngurah Rai Airport in Bali, Indonesia with heroin weighing 1.3 kg taped to his legs under his clothing.  for 246 yards and four touchdowns on 36 carries while Smith, Scott's uncle, had a 41-yard touchdown catch and an interception.

Yes, that's right, Smith is Scott's uncle. Scott's older sister, Alexis, is Darrell's mom.

``But we're really more like brothers,'' said Smith, a speedy 6-foot-1 wide receiver who is being recruited by schools such as Oregon, Washington and Fresno State.

Actually, it was Scott who asked Smith to move from Florida out to Moorpark last season because, ``I knew I needed some help.''

Scott rushed for 1,998 yards and 19 touchdowns as a sophomore last season. In two games this season, he has racked up 402 yards and scored five touchdowns. Smith has also scored in both games.

Both teams came into Friday night's game needing a win after Week 0 losses. Hart dropped its opener 34-0 to St. Bonaventure of Ventura, its first shutout in 18 years. Moorpark lost 33-14 to defending Div. II champion Canyon.

Hart managed just 10 yards rushing in the game.

But quarterback Alex Petee warmed up in the second half, finishing 12 of 29 for 324 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. His favorite target was running back Delano Howell, who caught six passes for 200 yards and two touchdowns. But it seemed like every time Hart cut into Moorpark's lead, Scott had an answer. He scored on runs of 13, 3, 4 and 10.

``We had a chip on our shoulder after losing to Canyon last week,'' Scott said.
