Gangi Earns State, SCFA Honors, Lanski Named SCFA PoW

Following the Pirates' 60-36 defeat of Moorpark in the Citrus Cup game, VC has two players who have earned player of the week honors at the state and regional levels.   Quarterback Ty Gangi earned State Player of the Week honors, along with accolades from the Southern California Football Association while kicker Jake Lanski earned SCFA Player of the Week honors.

Gangi had a record-setting performance against the Raiders Saturday.  He earned the State Offensive Player of the Week Award from the JC Athletic Bureau and the  SCFA Northern Conference Offensive Player of the Week honors by connecting on 35 of 52 pass attempts for a school-record 452 yards in the air.  He also threw for five touchdowns, one shy of tying the school mark.  The freshman from St. Francis High School also rushed for 32 yards and another touchdown as the Pirates defeated Moorpark for the eighth straight year.

Lanski, meanwhile, earned his SCFA Northern Conference Special Team Player of the Week award for a perfect night in the kicking game.  He was 3-3 in field goal attempts, hitting from 21, 29 and 41 yards, and was a perfect 7-7 on point after touchdown attempts, giving him 16 points on the evening.  Lanski is a sophomore from Ventura High School.
