What are some important games this weekend?

Form KOAT

GRANTS, N.M. —Transgender Laguna-Acoma High School senior Alex Trujillo wants to play on the girls volleyball team, but can't. "It might not seem like a big deal to some people, but you never really know what you take for granted," Alex said.

Alex was born a boy and, according to the New Mexico Activities Association, she can only play with the girls if she amends her birth certificate. But state law says you can only do that if you undergo reassignment surgery.

An New Mexico Activities Association representative said the board plans to discuss this issue behind closed doors, calling it a complex issue. The representative said the board did not feel comfortable commenting until it got feedback from its member schools and activities associations around the country.

Today, for the third week we will ask 5-questions for the teams ranked in the Top-25. This will be the Thursday feature and feel free to add your own or chime along with the conversation.

1. Thursday: Can No. 12 Sandia Avoid a 50-Point Mercy Rule?
The No. 1 Cleveland Storm will take on the No. 12 Matadors. The Matadors (3-1) are currently ranked 12th in the state but are currently 0-1 against Top-10 teams, a 37-3 loss to Volcano Vista during week one. The other three opponents for the Matadors, all wins, are a low 2-10. Also, a 0-4 Valley team put 20 points on the Matadors last week (yes, most came in the fourth quarter) but if they want to make this one last 4-quarters they have to stop an unstoppable team. My over under is this one ends in the third quarter.

2. Can No. 4 Las Cruces win as an "underdog" and is this team more vulnerable than we thought?
Okay maybe this will spark you to disagree and go at me. The Bulldawgs are the No. 4 team in New Mexico this week, taking on the No. 3 Centennial Hawks. The Bulldawgs however are coming into the contest narrowly avoiding two upsets to Volcano Vista (24-21) and Rio Rancho (34-31). So is this team not as dominate as we may have projected? Or have they been finishing the games against quality teams along with having a huge target?

3. Is No. 6 Eldorado a true contender?
We have the chance to get a definite answer, well we hope we get one after this weekends contest. The Eagles take on No. 7 Mayfield down in Las Cruces in a game that will provide viewers another Top-10 bash down south. However, the Eagles have played opponents 3-13 combined. Yes, Last week I asked a similar question to the Eagles in a showdown with Volcano. The upset factor in this one could be defense. Mayfield, minus Carlsbad, has allowed teams to put up points (34-Hobbs, 49-Franklin and 46-Alamogordo). I mention that because the Eagles can score, granted the level of opponent. The thing with the Eagles is the most points allowed was 21 by Volcano. Maybe that is the X-factor, maybe not.

4. No. 9 Rio Rancho only getting better?
We know that they played Las Cruces close last week only falling 34-31. They take on a Clovis team that lost it's first game last weekend. Both teams manage the game well and have Clovis was able to close out the close call against Cibola. This one is a big coin flip and Clovis, even though they lost by 30, didn't get mercy ruled against Cleveland. Rio Rancho played the No. 4 team close and offense seems to be getting better each night. This question was hard to write about as both teams are "odd" right now and I have contradicted myself on who has the edge. Who just jumps out early and holds on to the lead wins. Rio Rancho does seem to be getting stronger as the year goes on, Clovis maybe a roller coaster.

5. Should they be this close at 14 and 13?
On one side the No. 13 Cibola Cougars are the cinderella-underdog-team on set this season. The Manzano Monarchs not so much even at 2-2. The Cougars seem to have the edge and at 3-1 for the right reasons. Maybe you don't agree with that but Clovis still debated by folks as a top-5 team barely escaped the loss with Cibola (14-6). Manzano on the other hand escaped with a win over 1-3 West Mesa last week.


Oh yeah will the NMAA go to 5-classifications?
Okay, this thread took off and fun to see the debates going on. My opinion is yes 5 would be best at this time. 31-teams in each well that I don't really agree with. I haven't been able to dig into my entire thoughts but 25-teams maybe at the most.

I bring this up because it shows that the entire program at Hobbs has progressed to the point that the Hobbs JV beat Clovis last week 49-0 and mercy-ruled Carlsbad last night 50-0 at the beginning of the second half. The Carlsbad game was alarming as the Eagles could have put up 90-100 points on them. The defense was awesome as the Caveman had negative yardage and zero first downs. They also mercy-ruled both the Jal & Eunice varsity teams 55-0. These four scores were unheard of at Hobbs until this year. They have two great QBs that share the time usually by quarters. Looks good for the near future of the varsity.

Week 5: 4A, 3A, 2A, 8Man, 6Man Preview
By: Kyle Henderson of NMPreps.com

Portales @ Dexter
The Rams could earn another statement win Friday Night against 3-1 Dexter. The Rams have outscored the comp in their last two games 84-0 and also have impressive wins against Lovington and Robertson earlier in the year. Running Back Bronte Staugaard has rushed for 670-yards and 10 touchdowns. The Demons are as hot as anyone in New Mexico. In their last three games they beat Tularosa 42-0, beat Hagerman 50-0, and beat Tucumcari last weekend 50-8. Quarterback Dominic Lomeli has thrown for 546-yards and 9 touchdowns.

NMMI @ Hot Springs
The Colts enter this Friday Night 4A marquee match up at 3-0 after a 49-6 win over Mesilla Valley. The Tigers moved to 4-0 and have plenty of momentum after beating Lordsburg a 3A contender 34-27. Watch for Hot Springs duo Darin Wetly at quarterback and Running Back Nick Moreno. Needless to say, this game will be a big win for either team.

West LV @ Hatch
West Las Vegas now 1-3 this season has a tall task taking on Hatch in Hatch, New Mexico this weekend. Against Capital in week 3 the Dons were shutout 48-0. Hatch is 4-0 and has outscored the comp this year 194-49 and they are coming off a 42-6 win over Clint, Texas. Watch for Adrien Grajeda who has rushed for 464-yards and also watch for quarterback Jared Garay who has thrown for 345-yards and rushed for another 120-yards.

Capital @ Robertson
Big test for the now 3-1 Jaguars heading into Las Vegas, New Mexico Friday Night. Bill Moon’s Capital Jaguars have rolled past Santa Fe and West Las Vegas, but the last 4A power they faced in St. Mike’s beat them 49-20. The Cardinals who started the year 0-2, have won two in a row including an impressive 25-20 over St. Mike’s in Santa Fe last weekend. Watch for Ajray Ortiz on offense and Francisco Arguello at backer who already has 45 total tackles this year.

Anthony @ Lordsburg
While the Lordsburg Mavericks have dropped two in a row, their two losses come against two teams which have a combined record of 8-0. Anthony, TX is 3-1 this season, earlier this year they beat Mesilla Valley 38-0. For the Mavericks watch for Johnny Plowman and Jacob Esquivel, two offensive standouts.

Estancia @ Santa Rosa
The Estancia Bears are riding into Santa Rosa ranked No. 1 in Class 3A by NMPreps.com and the big favorite against the 1-3 Lions. Last weekend the Bears were propelled by Adam Lujan who ran for 466-yards in a 59-7 win over Capitan. The Lions have lost two in a row, last weekend they lost to Hope Christian 20-6.

Hope @ Bloomfield
Marquee match up in Class 4A as Hope now 3-1 after their 20-6 win over Santa Rosa makes the long drive to take on undefeated Bloomfield. The Huskies are led by Caleb Meyer Hagen who has thrown for 695-yards and 10 touchdowns this year. The Bobcats are 4-0 under Bob Allcorn and are coming off a tight 24-19 win over Taos. Brenden Charley has thrown for 400-yards, JD Robinson has rushed for 439-yards and 4 touchdowns for the Bobcats.

Lovington @ Silver
The Wildcats won their first game of the year two weeks ago against Ruidoso and now make the cross state road trip to take on winless Silver. Against Ruidoso, Lovington Quarterback Dallas Stearns accounted for over 300-total yards and 3 touchdowns. The Colts now 0-4 which is very rare for their program is struggling and again they are the underdog at home. They lost to Roswell last weekend 43-8 and to Deming the week before 32-14.

Mesilla Valley @ Jal
The Mesilla Valley Son Blazers are now 2-2 after a 27-21 win over Tornillo, Texas in week 4. Mesilla now makes the very long road trip to take on Jal who replaced their Head Coach Bobby Reed with Caleb Aldrige just days ago. The Panthers have been outscored 78-0 in their last two games.

Saturday 4A, 3A, 2A, 8Man, 6Man Preview

Week Six of the Volleyball is underway, let's take a look at the volleyball scene in New Mexico. Several unknown questions around the state but a few teams have taken the leap forward. Big recruiting news, undefeated teams and players surging as the best in the state. Let's go!

THE FAVORITES BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY THE SEPTEMBER 21ST PICK

6A: We are only taking one team right now. The La Cueva Bears at 8-0 and currently ranked No. 1 in the NMPreps.com Top-25 are the favorite. Not because they are #1 (as you will see in the next classification) but they have the makings to be a special team that goes perfect throughout the season.

5A: Centennial has to be the favorite right now at 7-1 and without a loss to any New Mexico team. The defending 5A champs had plenty return and they are just a dominate team. What is not to like about this team at the moment. They have played a contender in Los Lunas and took the match 3 games to none.

4A: Hope Christian. Okay, this might come to some surprise as the Lady Huskies are not the No. 1 team in 4A, that would be the Sundevils of Sandia Prep. However, the Huskies suffering three losses have three "good" losses. Yes, I said that because they come to La Cueva (No. 1 overall), Cibola (No. 3 overall) and a Volcano Vista team that right now is playing better.

3A: Texico. 2A: Magdalena 1A: Santa Fe Waldorf.

TOP 6: STILL UNBEATEN

The list of unbeaten is impressive after 5-weeks of playing. Some teams might actually run the table the season and win the entire thing without a loss on their resume.

La Cueva (8-0) - 6A
Roswell (9-0) -5A
Sandia Prep (7-0) - 4A
Wingate (6-0) - 4A
Newcomb (8-0) - 3A
Navajo Prep (4-0) - 3A

BOTTOM 4: WELL THE 'NOT' UNBEATEN, SEARCHING FOR NUMERO UNO

Too soon to pack it up until next season but the teams are still looking for their first win of the season in 6A-3A. Do we think any team should really pack it up - NO. However, a lot of work is needed until you hit the state tournament. Will any go winless? Maybe 1 from this list but who knows.

Rio Rancho (0-7) - 6A
Highland (0-7) - 6A
Grants (0-7) - 5A
N.A.C.A (0-4) - 3A

ONE HIT WONDERS: RANKING THEM

1. Centennial - 5A - 7-1
2. Cibola - 6A - 7-1
3. St. Pius X - 5A - 5-1
4. Texico - 3A - 7-1
5. Moriarty - 5A - 8-1

The darling of the bunch is from 3A, the Top-25 ranked Texico team. They have an early season win over Eldorado on their resume, if that doesn't say favorite.... I don't know what does. Centennial as I mentioned above looking solid. But... Yes but.. I like St. Pius X.

FIVE WEEK STANDOUTS: 7 MISS VOLLEYBALL CANDIDATES?

Why the question mark, Grine? Well, the season is hit or miss on information coming through either by coaches or through stats by email or text. The season is still young and plenty could shake up the list.

Lyric Ellison, Volcano Vista/SR: Ellison came into the season a preseason All-State favorite and doing damage for the Top-25 ranked Lady Hawks. Ellison currently has 122 kills to lead the state of New Mexico.

Catherine Kelly, Sandia Prep/SO: Only a sophomore Kelly has done more than what the stats read (.437 hitting percentage) but a young leader for the undefeated Lady Sundevils. Talented- yes! Could be a dark horse to win it but we have our eye on you.

Alina Vanecek, Albuquerque Academy/SR: From 5A Vanecek does a little of everything for the Chargers. A .415 hitting percentage, 109 kills and likely more that we are missing has us noticing the 5A player.

Jordan Holland, Los Lunas/SR: She has been the talk from several around New Mexico, she displays her athleticism each and every night.

Savannah Bush, Centennial/SR: Another without much information out as far as stats go but Bush has been a crucial part to the Lady Hawks success to this point. A gem in the state that will, should be a next level player.

Bridgette Lowe, Eldorado/SR: At, 112 Kills Lowe has been on our radar since the preseason and she only gets better. The Lady Eagles are playing better and she is becoming a name to know more and more as the season goes on.

Abigail Stomp, La Cueva/SR: You can find Stomp on many lists and also regarded as one of the best players in the entire state. A commit to Northern Arizona Stomp will be a favorite for the award late in the season. 239 Assists, 40 Total Blocks, and 36 kills. Just to name a few.

Rose Moon, Santa Fe Waldorf/FR: The only freshman on the watch right now we had to consider Moon who plays for one of the best teams in 1A volleyball. She will be a fun one to watch for the next four years. 5'8 freshman with 109 kills on the year, she had 18 in the last contest.

THIS AND THAT

If you know any player who would be willing to interview with me, maybe you read the one-on-one with Amaya Brown a basketball player, that is what I am looking for. Have them shoot me an email grinejosh@yahoo.com. Also, please send in scores, stats and updates to (505) 414-4313. If you are a coach don't hesitate to give us updates. I hope to be out soon to catch more games.

Who Wins: No. 3 Centennial or No. 4 Las Cruces - Rankings from the NMPreps.com Top 25

Game is Friday Night at the Field of Dreams

Most Surprising Record Heading Into Week 5

Week 5 of the New Mexico High School Football Season features several NMPreps.com Top 25 Games. Today we take an early look at the marquee match ups. Our full week 5 preview will be published on Friday.



No. 1 Cleveland @ No. 12 Sandia - Thursday
The Storm now 4-0 on the season will head to Wilson Stadium to take on Sandia 3-1 in a marquee Metro Showdown. The Matadors have won their last two out of three games against Cleveland and have outscored their last three opponents 153-34.

No. 4 Las Cruces vs. No. 3 Centennial - Friday
Last year the game was epic to put it simply with Centennial winning 49-47. This year the new rivalry game is supercharged with both teams entering Friday Night’s match up a combined 7-1. Las Cruces is coming off a 34-31 victory over Rio Rancho, Centennial is on fire beating up Gadsden, Del Norte, and EP Socorro by a combined 106-20.

No. 5 Artesia @ No. 25 Carlsbad
Artesia is 4-0, Carlsbad is 0-4 the rivalry is still one of the biggest in New Mexico. It’s the Battle of Eddy County at Ralph Bowyer and Coach Cooper Henderson of Artesia vs. 1st Year Carlsbad Coach Gary Bradley presents an interesting storyline. Throw the records and everything you know out the window for this game.

No. 6 Eldorado @ No. 7 Mayfield - Saturday
The Eagles now 4-0 on the season after an impressive win over Volcano Vista 38-21 will head to Mayfield now 3-1 for a Saturday Top 25 showdown. The Trojans are coming off a 46-28 loss to Alamogordo. Last year the score of this game was 50-49 with Eldorado winning in overtime.

No. 10 Clovis @ No. 9 Rio Rancho
Each team is looking for a bounce back week after Clovis lost to Cleveland 50-20 and Rio Rancho lost on the road at Las Cruces 34-31. The two teams are 5-5 since the 2003 season, however Rio Rancho has won the last 5 in a row against Clovis. The last time these two met in Rio Rancho it was a shootout with Rio Rancho winning 62-59 in overtime.

No. 11 Hobbs @ No. 17 Goddard
The Goddard Football Rockets now 2-2 have outscored their last two opponents 89-7 in their last two games after starting out 0-2 under second year Head Coach Mike Whalen. Hobbs has also won two in a row, last weekend the Eagles defeated Onate 41-21, led by Quarterback Isaac Amaya’s 6 touchdown passes. The last time Hobbs beat Goddard was way back in 2007 winning 21-20 under Head Coach Phillip Roybal.

No. 14 Manzano vs. No. 13 Cibola
The Manzano Monarchs had to reel off a late season drive against West Mesa last weekend 21-13 to move to 2-2 on the season. The Monarchs who have won two in a row will take on Cibola who is quite the surprise this year at 3-1. The Cougars defeated La Cueva last weekend 27-14 led by Kayzan Martin who had 140-yards rushing.

No. 22 Valley vs. No. 18 La Cueva
Who wants to stay in the Top 25 more? Valley now a surprising 0-4 to start the year is needless to say desperate for a win. La Cueva has lost three in a row. If either team wants to to stick around in the playoff talk, win Friday Night.

This happened in San Antonio Saturday Night. These two should be banned and punished for assault.
