Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Palo Verde walked away with it. They put the hurt on the Basic Wolves with a sharp 33-12 victory on Tuesday. The result was nothing new for the Panthers, who have now won ten matches by 20 points or more so far this season.
It was another big night for Samantha Manzo, who rushed for 159 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 carries, and also threw for 40 yards and one touchdown. She didn't just play on offense: she also made four total tackles and defended one pass in addition to snagging an interception which she returned one-yard for a touchdown. Madeline West made the highlight reel by snagging an interception and taking it all the way to the house.
Palo Verde has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 15 of their last 16 contests, which provided a nice bump to their 20-2 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 7.4 points over those games. As for Basic, their loss dropped their record down to 14-11.
