    Fred Altieri, Sports Reporter|Dec 17, 2020

    LAFC's remarkable and tense 3-1 victory over Club America was the club's biggest win in its short but successful three-year history.

Los Angeles Football Club will be the first MLS team to win the tournament if they beat Tigres UANL this Tuesday, December 22. Bradley: "Getting to a Final is so...

"This nation has to change and it might as well start with us here in California," said Lee, who became the first African-American member of the Culver City Council in 2018.

Winners of four of their last five games and in virtual first place in the NFC West, the 9-4 Los Angeles Rams and head coach Sean McVay are preparing to ensure that this Sunday's contest at SoFi Stadium against the winless 0-13 New York Jets won't be a trap game. An expected win will improve the team's record to 2-2 against AFC East opponents this season after disposing the New England Patriots, 24-3, at home last Thursday night.

  • Herbert Leads Chargers to Victory

    Bill Seals, Sports Reporter|Dec 17, 2020

    It has been a while since Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert engineered a game winning drive in a football game. In fact, the last time was in college with Oregon, when Herbert scored on a thrilling 30-yard fourth quarter touchdown run to give the Oregon Ducks a 28-27 win over the Wisconsin Badgers in the 2020 Rose Bowl, Herbert's last collegiate football game, in a game played on New Year's Day. Herbert had previously come close with the Chargers, but a missed field goal against...

  • Slovis leads another comeback win for the Trojans

    Bill Seals|Dec 17, 2020

    Hall of Fame football coach Vince Lombardi once said, "It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get up." That would be the storyline of the USC Trojan football team in 2020. Besides their battles with the Covid-19 epidemic, which cost the Trojans one regular season game, they have been knocked down several times this season on the field. But they keep getting up. For the third time in their five-game regular season, the USC Trojans found a way to win a football game with less...

QB Kedon Slovis once again played big late, while Hufanga hammered the Bruins for a second straight year. The junior had 17 stops, including two for loss, a forced fumble and a pick that would have been a pick-six had it not been for an illegal block. His monster performance earned him the nod as Chuck Bednarik...
