Liberty starts its Sunrise title defense with an easy victory.

Remember this name during the playoffs: Bryan Roland.

Las Vegas beat Basic by 28 points earlier this season, but the score was close at halftime. It will be close again.

Picking Basic when it’s an underdog is an addiction I can’t kick.
Basic 42, Las Vegas 40

Get out your calculators. There might be more than 80 pass attempts in this one.
Green Valley 50, Foothill 31

True, but Green Valley’s will be more efficient.

The Canyon Springs defense is the real deal.

Taking a leap of faith with pesky Cougars.

Moapa Valley uses first game with Virgin Valley as a wake-up call, shows why it’s a force.

This game will come down to the final two minutes. Yes, that close.

This is year two of a new era. The Northwest belongs to Arbor View.

Legacy makes another statement against a quality opponent.

Longhorns’ blowout streak comes to an end. Their win streak does not.

Dustin Puia, Cody Alfar and J Henderson formed a special trio all season.
