The Atrisco Heritage Academy Jaguars will take on the Centennial Hawks at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday.
After dropping their season opener at home, Centennial is headed out to face a Jaguars team ready to give their home crowd a win. Atrisco Heritage Academy was beaten by Rio Rancho 54-15 on Thursday. The loss continues a trend for the Jaguars in their matchups with the Rams: they've now lost eight in a row.
The loss doesn't tell the whole story though, as several players had good games. One of the most active was Landon Griego, who threw for 272 yards and two touchdowns. Josiah Lopez helped Griego out on the ground, picking up 122 receiving yards and a touchdown, while also rushing for 36 yards.
Meanwhile, Centennial had to kick off their season on the road on Friday, but they showed no ill effects. They walked away with a 35-28 victory over Cleveland.
Jordan Lucas was a one-man wrecking crew for Centennial as he picked up 106 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 51 yards. Lucas was no stranger to the big play, cutting upfield for a catch that went for 65 yards.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Centennial was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 202 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 202 rushing yards in five consecutive games dating back to last season.
Atrisco Heritage Academy might still be hurting after the 35-12 defeat they got from Centennial in their previous matchup back in September of 2021. Can Atrisco Heritage Academy avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
