Jesse James Gonzalez Delivers Electric Effort Vs West Las Vegas
Robertson picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Jesse James Gonzalez. Nobody could stop Gonzalez as he threw for 225 yards and two touchdowns while completing 77.8% of his passes, and also rushed for 64 yards and a touchdown.
Gonzalez must have West Las Vegas's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Gonzalez saw the Dons), he rushed for 132 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.8 yards per carry, and also threw for 150 yards and two touchdowns on only ten passes.
