The Robertson Cardinals's homestand will continue as they prepare to take on the Tularosa Wildcats at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The two teams are sauntering into the matchup backed by comfortable wins in their prior games.
Last Friday, Robertson was fully in charge, breezing past Raton 49-7 at home. Fans of the Cardinals have seen this all before: every one of the games they've played this season has ended in a blowout of 20+ points.
A big part of Robertson's victory came down to the chemistry between Jesse James Gonzalez and his top target George Smith. Gonzalez threw for 215 yards and four touchdowns on only 17 passes while Smith gained 157 total yards and three touchdowns.

The team also got some help courtesy of Paul Duran, who gained 68 total yards and a touchdown.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Tularosa). They took their contest at home on Friday with ease, bagging a 50-0 win over Capitan. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest victory of the season.
