The Cibola Raiders will play host again on Friday to welcome the Central Spartans, where kickoff is scheduled at 7:00 p.m.
Last Friday, Cibola had to suffer through a 46-6 loss at the hands of Layton Christian Academy.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Central). They were the clear victor by a 40-20 margin over Coachella Valley on Friday.
The match pitted two dominant backs against one another in Nico Viesca and Aaron Ramirez. Viesca had a great game and rushed for 148 yards and three touchdowns on only 12 carries. Meanwhile, Ramirez was balling out in the loss, rushing for 176 yards and a touchdown while picking up 10.4 yards per carry, and also picking up 37 receiving yards.
Central's defense was in the mix too, especially the secondary: they snagged two passes before it was all said and done. The picks came courtesy of Alex Trejo and Gavyn Mora.
Cibola's loss was their third straight at home, which dropped their record down to 0-3. As for Central, their victory bumped their record up to 4-1.
Cibola might still be hurting after the 35-12 defeat they got from Central in their previous meeting back in September of 2023. That game was all but decided by halftime, at which point Cibola was down 28-6.
