In a game that was filled with penalties, turnovers and a lot of mistakes on both ends of the field, the Palomar College Comets improved their record to 2-1 on the football campaign as they defeated the Southwestern College Cougars by a 17-0 score Sept. 17 at Escondido High School’s Wayne Embry Field.
