The valley got loud. A nail-biter in Palm Springs, a weather fight for Palm Desert, and a six-touchdown statement from Coachella Valley turned Week 13 into a showcase of late-season nerve and clean coaching. We felt the season tighten—the quieter practices, the colder air—and then watched three programs punch through with poise. We start with Palm Springs vs Hart, a true playoff classic. Coach Brown’s defense sat patiently in a 30 with two high safeties, baiting Hart away from their favorite...

Ep#13-A Wild First Round Sets Up High-Stakes Road Tests

Desert Valley Blitz ·

2025/11/14

A halftime gamble changed everything. From Banning’s aerial clinic to Coachella Valley’s three-safety adjustment that flipped the night, we watched a playoff slate where courage, timing, and one or two swing plays separated joy from heartbreak. Five desert programs are still alive, and the road ahead is loaded with long bus rides, tough draws, and real chances to crash the semifinals. We start with the statement wins. Palm Springs shrugged off an early punch and rolled past Claremont behind ...

The valley just punched eight tickets to CIF, and the storylines are electric. We open with a clean Week 11 wrap-up—Palm Desert’s trench clinic in the flag game, Palm Springs grinding through a real test, Shadow Hills flexing on defense—then pivot straight into a layered playoff preview you can use on Friday night. KESQ’s Kenji Eto joins us with grounded scouting, real numbers, and what travel, tempo, and scheme actually mean when the bracket gets real. We break down the Game of the Week, Co...

2025/10/30

Rivalry week is here, and the valley is buzzing. A single upset lit the fuse: Palm Desert stunned previously unbeaten Palm Springs with a ruthless first half, then survived a furious rally thanks to red‑zone grit and a game‑saving interception. That pivot didn’t just change a scoreline—it scrambled the DEL, turned tiebreakers into a maze, and set up a finale where a team could credibly finish anywhere from league champ to the four seed. We walk through every hinge moment. La Quinta and Shado...

2025/10/24

A shutout says a lot, but the story behind it says more. We sat down with Palm Springs head coach Daryl Gore to unpack how an 8-0 start took shape: a midseason defensive switch his staff sold, players embraced, and opponents now struggle to solve. Coach Gore explains why keeping the run game simple for linemen while changing the presentation for defenses has unlocked long drives, controlled clocks, and clean wins. You’ll hear how DC Coach Brown’s “take away what they do best” mantra guided th...

Ep#9-Palm Desert’s Statement Win And The DEL Shake-Up

Desert Valley Blitz ·

2025/10/17

Defense changed the temperature of the valley. We open with Coach Rudy Forti of Palm Desert, who pulls back the curtain on a brutal preseason, the realities of depth, and how a disciplined front seven can flip a game before the offense even settles in. From the wind-whipped nights that taught them to grind, to a statement win over Rancho Mirage keyed by turnovers and trench dominance, Palm Desert’s identity feels built for October. We pivot to La Quinta’s power run revival against Xavier Pre...

2025/10/09

A four-and-two surge meets an undefeated buzzsaw, and suddenly the Desert Empire League feels like a bracket before the bracket. We sit down with Shadow Hills head coach David Palmer to unpack how a four-deep receiver room, a flexible QB plan, and a timely shift to a 3-3-5 defense flipped their Rancho Mirage matchup and set the stage for a heavyweight trip to Palm Springs. If you care about game-planning, RPO answers, and how to build an offense around what your players do best, you’ll love t...

Ep#7-Rivals, Rankings, and a DEL Showdown

Desert Valley Blitz ·

2025/10/02

The valley finally gets what it’s been waiting for: league games that feel like November in late September. We start by rewinding a wild week six—Yucca Valley pulling away late behind Aiden Shannon and Clyde King, La Quinta clawing back from 22-0 only to fall in OT, Coachella Valley learning through a one-score loss, and Cathedral City winning hearts with a throwback T formation and a ball-hawking 4-2-5. Add in 29 Palms’ third straight win, Indio’s reset after a letdown, and Desert Chapel’s s...
