By: Kyle Henderson of NMpreps.com



Las Cruces 46, La Cueva 7
The Las Cruces Bulldawgs got their first win of the year Saturday against La Cueva in a game that was packed with penalties early on, in-fact Las Cruces had more than 100-yards of penalties in the first half alone. The Dagws jumped to a 7-0 lead when Quarterback Kameron Miller busted a 30-yard touchdown run. La Cueva fired back with a Chris Campbell touchdown, then Las Cruces scored 39 unanswered points in a route. A Payton ball touchdown run made it 14-7, then Miller hit Super Brandon Baeza for a 34-yard touchdown to make it 21-7, a field goal made it 24-7 at the half. Miller would throw another touchdown in the second half and the Dawgs never looked back. Now 1-1, Las Cruces will take on Volcano Vista in week 3 at the Field of Dreams. La Cueva now 1-1 will face Rio Rancho.

St. Mike’s 49, Capital 20
The Horsemen are City Champs. Last Friday Night the Horsemen defeated Santa Fe High by 27, on Saturday the Horsemen blew out Capital by 29. Though Capital jumped to a 7-0 lead, the Horsemen scored off a Chross Jaramillo to Esteban Alvarez touchdown connection and a Capital special team’s error to make it 15-7. The Horsemen would lead at half 29-14 thanks to two 2nd quarter Xavier Vigil Touchdowns. Jaramillo would put the nail in the coffin with a 91-yard touchdown run. The Horsemen now 2-0 on the season will take on Taos in week 3, Capital now 1-1 will play Santa Fe.
