Playoff time is here, and Tularosa and Hope Christian are set to clash on Friday at 7:00 PM. The two teams each escaped (but just barely !) with wins against their previous opponents.
Tularosa earned some postseason bragging rights after a successful outing last week. They narrowly escaped with a victory as the team sidled past Zuni 22-20. Junior Traiton Griffin, who picked up 125 yards on the ground on 28 carries and accumulated 130 passing yards, was a major factor in Tularosa's success. Junior Traiton Griffin has been one of their standout athletes in their past four games.
Meanwhile, Hope Christian may have failed to reach the 40.44-ppg average they boasted coming into the contest against Laguna Acoma two weeks ago, but the squad still had enough to get the job done. Hope Christian were gifted an easy win as Laguna Acoma wound up forfeiting 0-1. The win was familiar territory for Hope Christian, who now have ten in a row.
Their wins bumped Hope Christian to 10-0 and Tularosa to 6-5. Two forfeits in a row aren't very likely, so Hope Christian better be ready for a battle.
