The 2013 Honor Bowl final contest featured a matchup of nationally ranked stalwarts the Corona Centennial Huskies and St. Bonaventure Seraphs under the lights at Oceanside High. Led by a record-setting performance by 2014 Cal commit Tre Watson, Centennial defeated St. Bonaventure 69-55 in an old fashioned shootout.
The star of the night, Tre Watson, rushed for nearly 500 yards and seven touchdowns in one of the greatest individual performances in the history of California high school football. Watson broke off several long runs all night while quarterback Robert Webber delivered another quality performance throwing for over 300 yards and tossing three touchdowns. UCLA commit Barry Ware caught a sweet touchdown in the first half and the offensive line created running lanes for Watson seemingly at will.
