Looking ahead, Gonzalez and Ballinger will hit the road for the first time this season to face off against Christoval at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last time Gonzalez duked it out with the Cougars (back in September of 2024), the Bearcats came out on top by a score of 21-0. Will another strong game from Gonzalez be enough to do it again?
