2023 Schedule
August 18th - at West Las Vegas - Underdog/CF
August 25th - at Tohatchi - Favorite
September 1st - vs Espanola - Underdog/CF
September 8th - vs Estancia - Coin Flip
September 15th - at Raton - Underdog
September 23rd - vs Mescalero Apache - Favorite
September 29th - vs Tularosa - Underdog
October 6th - at Laguna-Acoma - Favorite
October 14th - at McCurdy - Favorite
October 20th - vs Santa Rosa - Underdog
2022 Record: 5-6 overall, 2-1 district
Best Case Scenario: 7-3 overall. The Lobos dropped a few games that have turned into CF games in 2023. They also swapped out Navajo Prep in week three for Espanola this season. That game now turns into a UND/CF instead of what would have been a FAV game. Three key games that could get them over .500 -- Estancia, Raton, and WLV. Estancia and Raton both lose key players from 2022 and WLV although have talent returning will have a new HC and change could take time.
Worst Case Scenario: 4-6 overall. The schedule is a good mix. They have four games that put them as a favorite entering the season -- Tohatchi, Mescalero Apache, Laguna-Acoma, and McCurdy. The Lobos shutout three of the four last season with Laguna-Acoma hanging around (22-14). I like the players returning for the Lobos and should roll again against the four.
