Hard to Believe: Espanola first team to reach 6-0 in Class 5A
Friday Night Espanola Valley defeated Taos 60-16 moving to 6-0, yes they are the first team in Class 5A to reach the 6-0 mark (Centennial was off this week, Artesia lost to Las Cruces).
“People can say all they want about us not playing anybody, that our schedule is weak,” Espanola Valley Coach Miguel Medina said. “The thing they don’t see is these are the same teams we were losing to time after time. Now we’re not just beating them, but we’re scoring points and winning games like this.” - This quote was published by the Santa Fe, New Mexican This morning - Read the full story on their win over Taos Here.
The Sundevils have never reached the 6-0 mark in school history. On the season they have outscored the competition 272-52.

Right now every team in District 2-5A is 0-0. The District Champion gets an automatic bid into the 12-team tournament. Record does not have everything to do with punching a playoff ticket, there are several factors including strength of schedule, how many district champs you beat, etc.
