SAN FRANCISCO – Quarterback Darius Clark-James tossed four touchdown passes to help lead No. 11 state-ranked City College of San Francisco to a convincing 38-21 victory over visiting Foothill College on Saturday at George M. Rush Stadium.

The Rams' sixth-straight victory moved them to 7-2 overall and 4-0 in the National Bay 6 League. CCSF has clinched at least a share of the Bay 6 title with a game left to play. It marks the program's first conference championship since 2021.

The Rams close the regular season at Diablo Valley College on Friday night in a game with huge title and postseason implications. A win would secure CCSF an outright league championship and one of the top seeds for the upcoming Northern California Regional Playoffs.

Diablo Valley was ranked No. 8 in last week's state poll and is 8-1 overall as well as 3-1 in the Bay 6 heading into Friday's finale. College of San Mateo (8-1, 3-1 Bay 6), also in the hunt for the league championship, closes at home against Laney College.

On Saturday, Clark-James put together another impressive outing. He completed 17 of 26 passes for 347 yards and tied a season-high with his 4 TD passes. Wide receivers Imari Conley and Jeremiah Nash both caught two touchdowns each in the win.

Conley hauled in 6 receptions for 155 yards and Nash caught 4 passes for 101 yards. Andre Tarver Jr was solid on the ground for the Rams as he totaled 83 yards on 17 carries, including a 17-yard TD in the first quarter.

The CCSF defense got interceptions from Aloisio Maluia, Kahanu Kalahiki, and Isaiah Lacy while Kam'ron Bizor had 4 tackles and a sack.
