There was a strong running game. There was a dominant defensive effort. And there was plenty for Legacy coach John Isola to be proud of Saturday night.

DeMichael Walker rushed for 150 yards and two touchdowns on 18 carries, and the Longhorns’ defense allowed only 27 first-half yards of offense en route to a 35-6 road win over Cimarron-Memorial.

“We had nice balance,” Isola said. “The defense played a heck of a game. To only give up 27 yards in the first half, that’s a great effort. On offense, we’re starting to click.”

Part of the clicking was thanks to Kourde Roberts, who hauled in a 22-yard touchdown pass from Tonoa Alapati, and John Sarabia scored on a 55-yard run for the Longhorns (1-3).

Legacy’s special teams also were solid, with a fake field goal producing a 6-yard touchdown run by A.J. Sotelo and Sky Parker converting a 44-yard field goal.

Cimarron dropped to 2-2.
