The Santa Rosa Junior College football team fell to 1-7 on the season with a 66-21 road loss to College of San Mateo on Saturday.

That started a string of four consecutive first-quarter toucdown runs by San Mateo (8-1).

SRJC’s Sullivan added another touchdown throw - a 4-yard pass to Greaden Monahan-Sharpe - in the second quarter, but it wasn’t enough to catch the Bulldogs, who led 38-13 at the half.

Zach Hugh scored a touchdown on a 7-yard run for SRJC in the third quarter and the team also added a safety.

The Bear Cubs wrap up their season Saturday with a home game against De Anza College.
