Chris Cabrero Delivers Best Effort of Season
Sadly, Chris Cabrero posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Cesar E. Chavez over Bellaire on Friday. Cabrero rushed for 54 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 284 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Cabrero and Cesar E. Chavez will challenge Houston Math Science & Tech at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday. The Lobos had to take a loss when they last met the Tigers, but Cabrero had little to do with the loss: he threw for 361 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 10.9 yards per attempt, and also punched in a rushing score. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

On the year, Wilson has averaged 9 total tackles per game.
