Underclassman Junior Medrano Comes Up Big Against Clovis
It was an underclassman who stole the show on Friday as Junior Medrano came into the matchup on a mission. He did his part (and then some), rushing for 138 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries, while also throwing for 33 yards and a touchdown for the 'W'.
The victory got Hobbs back to even at 4-4. Medrano and Hobbs will welcome Organ Mountain at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Dylan Hergenreder Delivers Best Performance of Season
Alamogordo came up short on Thursday despite Dylan Hergenreder delivering his best game to date. Hergenreder rushed for 141 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Alamogordo is on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-8. Hergenreder and Alamogordo will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Clovis at 7:00 p.m. on November 1st.

Centennial Gets a Boost from Rios in 49-14 Victory
Rudy Rios's big game helped extend Centennial's winning streak to eight on Friday. Rios was unstoppable, rushing for 52 yards and three touchdowns, while also catching a touchdown.
This season, Rios has run in 12 touchdowns while averaging 81 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging four rushing yards per game.
Gamescore: 32.08
Another Game with at Least Five Total Tackles from Tristan Davis
Tristan Davis continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his 20th-straight game (dating back to last season) with at least five total tackles. He picked up two sacks, forced a fumble, and made eight total tackles (4.0 for loss). He is becoming a predictor of Hobbs's success: when he posts at least two sacks the team is undefeated (and 1-4 when he doesn't).
Clovis's probably not too fond of Davis given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in November of 2023 (the last time Davis saw the Wildcats), he made 13 total tackles (4.0 for loss).
