• Palomar sacks East Los Angeles College 6 times in 26-7 Victory (the-telescope.com) — East Los Angeles College's Huskies fell 26-7 to Palomar in San Marcos on September 5, managing just one touchdown before Palomar's defense took over. The Comets racked up six sacks, including a fumble returned for a score and a safety, while East LA cycled through three quarterbacks but couldn't add points in the second half. 
• The San Andreas fault is quietly building toward the 'Big One' (morningoverview.com) — A major San Andreas earthquake could send especially strong shaking into East Los Angeles, where soft sediments can amplify seismic waves even though the fault lies miles away. Scientists explain why the region faces roughly a coin-flip chance of a large quake in any 30-year window, how new models envision even bigger events, and why ongoing retrofits and preparedness matter for local residents.
