Keeping up with the Nitros

"This was the biggest game," said running back Chan Kim, who rushes for 111 yards and a pair of touchdowns. "It's the best feeling ever. We broke them."

Glendale, which snaps a 16-game losing skid, finishes 1-9, 1-6 in league for seventh place. The Nitros score the most points in the history of the "Battle for the Victory Bell," which dates to 1930. It's also their biggest margin of victory since a 51-0 win in 1991 and gives Glendale a 47-33-2 advantage in the all-time series.

"This game was the biggest game of the season," said quarterback Alex Yoon, who rushes for a game-high 123 yards and three touchdowns on just nine carries. "There was a lot of pressure on all of us to show up and play hard for ourselves and for our school."

Yoon score on runs of 24, 22 and 49 yards.

"We knew we could run the ball and we did," Glendale Coach Alan Eberhart said. "We also got breaks."
