Rudy Rios Delivers Electric Performance Vs Hobbs

Kason Perez's Big Game Leads Carlsbad over Alamogordo
Carlsbad took down Alamogordo on Friday, a win that might not have happened without Kason Perez's standout performance. Perez did his part (and then some), throwing for 265 yards and three touchdowns for the 'W'.
The victory got Carlsbad back to even at 4-4. Perez and Carlsbad will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Las Cruces at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.

Jordan Lucas Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, Centennial got the W thanks in part to Jordan Lucas playing the best football he has all season. Lucas rushed for 61 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 54 receiving yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 59 yards.
Lucas and Centennial will square off against Organ Mountain at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last time Lucas took on the Knights, he picked up 29 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Big Game from Davis As Centennial Won 51-12
Centennial picked up their seventh consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Zaiden Davis. Davis did his part (and then some), rushing for 76 yards and a touchdown, while also throwing for 117 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 passes for the 'W'.
On the season, Davis has thrown 8 touchdowns while averaging 112.7 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had 11 rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to 19.
