  "account": "A remarkable football game in the Bay Area unfolded with a dramatic upset, courtesy of an astonishing individual performance by Acalanes quarterback Tyler Winkles. The No. 6 seed Acalanes narrowly defeated the No. 3 Pittsburg, 70-54, in a video game-like quarterfinal showdown. Winkles' 607 total yards - a record for a quarterback who also rushed for 100 yards - and his eight touchdowns were the highlights of the game. Incredibly, Winkles did this despite Pittsburg's strong defense, which includes multiple D-I college prospects like edge rusher Terrance Murphy and safety Jeremiah Edwards. Acalanes head coach Joel Isaac expressed amazement at Winkles' performance, stating, \"All the other people are going to think it's an upset, but we knew. We were confident going into this game, I promise you that.\" This game marked a historic moment for Acalanes, as they advance to the Division I semifinals for the second consecutive year.",
