San Diego's defense stepped up as well, laying out the QB four times. The heavy lifting was done by Ryan Casas and Andres Lopez who racked up four sacks between them.

Meanwhile, this season hasn't been kind to Progreso, who are still winless after their seventh game. They were dealt a 53-0 defeat at the hands of Falfurrias on Friday.

Everything came up roses for San Diego against Progreso in their previous matchup back in October of 2022 as the squad secured a 52-0 win.
