Newcomb has the luxury of staying at home another week and will welcome Capitan at 1 p.m. ET on Saturday. After these two teams made easy work of their previous opponents, one of them is set up to suffer a discouraging change of fortune.
Newcomb took their game last Friday with ease, bagging a 56-6 victory over Thoreau. Deontay Begay went supernova for the Skyhawks as he caught five passes for 170 yards and punched in four rushing TDs. This makes it six games in a row in which Begay has produced a touchdown. Begay scored five touchdowns overall-- his season high.
Meanwhile, Capitan kept a clean sheet against Mescalero Apache. Capitan steamrolled Mescalero Apache 52-0.
Capitan's defense was a presence, and it made life painful for the QB and embarrassed Mescalero Apache's offensive line for a total of seven sacks. It was a group effort with three picking up two sacks apiece.
Their wins bumped Newcomb to 7-3 and Capitan to 3-6. We'll see which team can carry over their success and which team inevitably falls when the Skyhawks and the Tigers clash.
